				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your business is important to you. I know it is to me. You want customers, patients, clients, and people calling your business.  The big yellow book is not enough.</p>
<h2>Your Business Needs To Be Found.</h2>
<p>Here are some free steps that you can take to get your business found on the web. (I&#8217;m not just talking web but mobile and smartphones too.)</p>
<h3>Get into <a href="http://www.google.com/local/add/businessCenter">Google</a> and <a href="http://www.bing.com/businessportal">Bing  </a>local listings.  (Yahoo too!)<a href="http://thomasguard.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/How-To-Get-Into-Google-Places-Maps.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-104 alignright" title="How To Get Into Google Places Maps" src="http://thomasguard.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/How-To-Get-Into-Google-Places-Maps.png" alt="" width="279" height="185" /></a></h3>
<p>When you create these free business profiles you want to make sure you:</p>
<ul>
<li>Add your business information including phone numbers.</li>
<li>Pick the correct categories for your business. (This is important especially in Google. If you are not sure what category you should be in look at a competitors Google Map.)</li>
<li>Add photos, show some friendly personality.</li>
<li>Add video. A YouTube account is free! You don&#8217;t have to add professional 5 minute videos. Add a 30 second video explaining the gist of your business.</li>
<li>Do not use websites that redirect or websites that are forwarded with masking. (This is against Google Places terms of service. And I have seen some of my clients penalized for doing this.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you &#8220;Google&#8221; your business and you find that you already have a Google map, make sure it is claimed and use the free advice above to pump up your map listing.</p>
<p>If you have any questions or comments, leave them below.</p>
