Google Local - Create Your Own Listings


Posted: March 14, 2005

Google Local has added a new feature for small businesses. You have the option of adding your own business listing and updating your own business information.

Google is using a mailing system to verify addresses. Once you create your listings, a mailer will be sent with a specific pin number on it. This is the verification code used to make sure you really have a business address.

The local listings allow you to add a link to your site. As Google Local expands (it’s user base is still quite small), this can be an effective way of driving local traffic to your site.
