How to Submit to Local Search In Google and Yahoo

Whether or not your business is online, you can get listed at Google Local or in Yahoo’s local listings. You’ll need the physical location of your offices, a phone number to list, a description of what you do or sell, an email address and your site address if you have one.

For Google, you’ll also need a Google account, which you already have if you’ve signed up for Gmail, Adwords, Google Sitemaps or any other online based Google product that requires nn email address.

As we discussed, local search is becoming more important to your business.

Start by getting listed for Google local. It’s free and they have a verification process.

Basic Local Yahoo listings are free of charge as well.
