A great way to get free local advertising on the web is to use the search engines. Google Local, Yahoo Local and Bing Local provide free business listings in their local section. When someone types in a search for a service or product in a specific location usually a map will show up with pin drops. These pin drops are local businesses that provide the product or service. Google, Yahoo and Bing will let you set up a business listing for free. They let you provide a lot of useful information about your business including an address, phone numbers, payment methods, business hours, website link, pictures and more. This can get your business on the first or second page of these search engines depending on the popularity of your business in your area. You do not even need a website to have a local business listing, just an address and phone number.
