Local search directory listings like the Google LBC (Local Business Center) are way for businesses and professionals that have a physical address to get more business. All the major search engines – that is – Google, Yahoo, and Bing / MSN all have local directories and different ways to get listed. They each have a way to show a “local Map” and pinpoint the listed business using a visual thumb tack. In terms of search, when your business is listed near the top of a local Maps listing, it’s fantastic exposure. In order to take advantage of local search it can help to have a website, but it’s critical to have a Search Engine Optimization Specialist that can add your local listings properly with the major search engines.
