      <title>SMB Local Stresses Importance of Correct Information Online for Small and Medium Sized Businesses</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Tempe, AZ -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 06/11/2014 --  Somebody Local directory stresses the importance of having correct information online. Even minute details can affect a small business, so paying attention to directories is an important part of the online directory submission process.<br />
<br />
Verifying details on directories or listings is especially important because the internet rapidly pulls information from different sources. This is essential in order to garner more customers through directories and listings, as those one- way links serve as advertising space. While the creation of links is an important feature of directory submission, businesses cannot forget that potential customers are viewing these links as well.<br />
<br />
Potential consumers sometimes view incorrect information unforgivingly. As a business, losing a customer over a wrong phone number is never good for business, but unfortunately, it does happen when business owners are not aware of the importance of correct information online. <br />
<br />
Having a correct phone number and business address not only prove the validity of the business to the customer but also prove validity to Google. Google&apos;s crawlers often verify a company&apos;s NAP (name, address, and phone number).<br />
<br />
As a directory that understands the importance of valid information, SMB Local is committed to providing correct information. We offer simple directory submission and free one- way links for businesses.<br />

      <title>SMB Local Emphasizes Importance of Directories for Small Businesses</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Tempe, AZ -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 06/02/2014 --  Somebody Local is dedicated to providing directory listings for small and medium businesses. Directory submission is an integral part to white hat search engine optimization, and SMB Local offers an easy approach to directory submission.<br />
<br />
With the rising popularity of link schemes, Google has begun enforcing strict rules for link submissions. According to Google, "Any links intended to manipulate PageRank or a site&apos;s ranking in Google search results may be considered part of a link scheme and a violation Google&apos;s guidelines." This further increases the reasoning to use a white hat directory for links.<br />
<br />
Worthy directories will offer you a free one- way link that will greatly affect business site rankings without subjecting the business to a Google violation. One- way links are important as Google considers pages exclusively for the sake of cross- linking "illegal" for ranking purposes, while directory submissions are considered optimal. SMB Local is committed to bringing one- way links that follow guidelines to business owners.<br />
<br />
Major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and Bing rely heavily on directories for ranking as they are manually reviewed by a human reviewer, rather than an automatic posting bot. Directory submission also offers easier indexing by search engines. The amount of high quality links to a website ensures a faster indexing time.<br />
<br />
In addition to offering free one- way links, SMB Local offers a simple submission process. Business owners can complete the process with ease and without spending any additional funds.<br />
