New resource helps small businesses with Local Search

As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, I just had to tell you about a new small business service that launched January 20th.

GetListed.org helps small business owners learn more about the way their businesses are listed online.

Their mission:

“to help small businesses claim and enhance their listings at major search engines.”

What a fantastic new resource for small businesses.

GetListed.org is extremely easy to use. Simply enter the business name and zip code you want to look up. The results provide local listing information for Google, Yahoo, Live Search and Best of the Web.

As I’ve talked about before, the potential to attract new customers via Local Search is enormous. Now, GetListed.org can help your business get started building and improving your search engine presence. They also offer a resource center if you find yourself overwhelmed by the world of Local Search.

Small business marketing takeaway:

If your small business depends on customers from your city or neighborhood, you have to get found online locally. Advertising in the printed version of the Yellow Pages, is not enough in this Web 2.0, mobile world.
