I think the biggest factor lately for our clients is getting in all the places local listings can be found (local engines, directories, data providers for mobile 411, GPS etc).

There is a great resource at http://www.emarketingmatador.com/step-2-local-search-directories that details where to “be listed” locally, with all the site ranked etc. We created this for ourselves, but are happy to share.

Hey Will -

Thanks for posting your presentation here. I am sure it was a great conference and hope to make it to the next local conference – will you be in SJ this summer for SES San Jose?

Will,

Great presentation! I had a great time getting to know you, Mary, Michael and others as well.

Some great tips were shared at SMX and I feel sorry for others in our space who didn’t make it!

We’ll talk soon on Twitter…

Peace!

Hi Miriam,

I’m totally with you. It’s kind of like “I can’t believe no one knows about this, shhh keep it quiet” all in one breath.

Or as I said to Michael Jensen, so far the Local Search community seems to be relatively as***le free.

Thanks for coming by — sorry we missed you at the show!

Hey Will -
Excellent presentation, and I like the way you’ve made the slideshow of this available. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen this application used before, so you’ve taught me something new just with that.

There was almost no coverage of the local conference on Sphinn…I was really surprised by that.

How many people do you estimate attended?

Local Search continues to feel a bit like a best-kept-secret. I won’t complain about that, but it does surprise me.

Thank you for sharing your presentation, Will. Well done!
Miriam
