Valuable Lead Websites to Post Your Business At

Back in March of 2011, I added this post, 10 Small Business Local Search Ranking Factors. And that is a good start if you want to get found locally with Local Internet Marketing. But there's MORE you can do, all FREE. So without further ado, I am listing the websites that will get your company listed - through them - on Google Page One.
List of lead sites I have been successful with for Local Internet Marketing.
Types:

Local Business Centers and Maps
Google Places Video Squeeze Page
Business Directory Listings
Online Classified Ads
Blogging and Press Releases
Video Marketing

So seems to me that MerchantCircle and HotFrog are clear winners if we use those lead sites  and update them with blog posts and ads. Backpage and OLX are the next runners up.

I enjoy Craigslist to get clients on, but in all honestly with all of their rules, I am finding using backpage and OLX gets me more bang for my time.
If this seems all to much for you to do, I can add these for you for a minimal fee. Just CONTACT ME.

http://cityvoter.com/
http://www.angieslist.com/angieslist/ - Ask a client to list your business here, otherwise you'll need to pay for it.

First, you may want to have some of these done for you, and can get a short 30 second to one minute video for your business for ONLY FIVE DOLLARS at fiverr.com, specifically, the videos: http://fiverr.com/categories/video/order/latest/pages/1. Below is one I have on my YouTube page.



Sites to upload your videos to:

For this part, I'm gonna plug a free promotion for Movavi Video, as this web page tells it all.

** But of course, the MOST IMPORTANT site to start with is YouTube (link to my channel).
