SEO Yourself

One way to help your website and business rise to top rankings is to add your business listing to the local business directories.

You can do this yourself, or hire us to add your listings. When we add your listing to business directories, we optimize your listing for your keywords, which can help your site gain a higher rank in searches for your business.

Most local searches occur in Google, Yahoo, MSN.

At the minimum, you should list your business in these four directories:

GOOGLE LOCAL
http://local.google.com/

YAHOO LOCAL
http://local.yahoo.com/

MSN LOCAL
http://local.live.com/

MERCHANT CIRCLE
