50 Local Business Directories [Most are Free]

by Robin Samora - Marketing/PR Expert

Who doesn’t love free marketing, especially when it comes to promoting your own business? Check out this article from our friends at HubSpot, who always provide valuable content and are a go-to source for everything digital to grow your brand.
 
If you’re trying to build a business, you need as much no-cost promotion whenever possible. What’s so great about 50 Local Business Directories is that you have the opportunity to list your business on a site/directory where people are already looking for the services you offer.

Get your perfectionist hat on and be sure to list your (NAP) Name, Address and Phone number correctly, and include your website url. Do this right and you’ll also benefit from online visibility, plus backlinks to authoritative sites which can potentially improve your SEO.
 
Good gets great when you discover another two lists: Location-specific directories – which include Boston and 1000+ niche citations in 43 business categories, a gold mine of information, all updated earlier this year.
 
This list is ranked by Domain Authority from Moz Link Explorer, and worth saving. Take a look at the first three listings, then read more.

Facebook (Domain Authority 100)

Apple Maps (Domain Authority 100)

Google My Business (Domain Authority 100)

LinkedIn Company Directory (Domain Authority 98)

Bing (Domain Authority 94)

Yelp (Domain Authority 94)
