How to Add a Business Listing to Local.com

Local.com is a directory of local events, deals,  services and shopping. One of the larger directories of its kind, they were named to the elite Deloitte Fast 500 Companies list  for 4 years in a row.

Note that the yellow button on the lower left says “Claim your listing & find out FREE”, not “Claim your FREE listing.” Clicking that button leads to this innocent looking sign-up-screen:

Local.com has partnered with Yext – all attempts to add or claim a listing eventually funnel you into YEXT’s shopping cart, where you can pay 8.25/month or $99/year for a listing just on Local.com

We have a better suggestion: Sign up for a full Yext Powerlistings account yourself and get your business listings claimed and synchronized on over 50 important local sites for a very reasonable annual fee. It’s a huge time saver, and one of the easiest ways to keep your citations and offers up-to-date everywhere.  Check out how your business listings look on the major local search engines here.
