Other Local Search Sites & Local Directories:

A number of well known directories get significant direct traffic from global search, searches on other local databases, and direct traffic. A few of the top players are:

* Verizon SuperPages
* CitySearch
* TrueLocal

Many directories and local search products are powered from Acxiom, infoUSA, GeoSign, or Amacai. Stunty pointed me at a couple resources showing the relationships.

* Post by ewhisper showing what major engines Acxiom and InfoUSA power
* PDF Chart by Bruce Clay visually representing the data and mapping relationships at major search sites

If you do not want to need to submit your data at many locations RegisterLocal allows you to submit a profile and have it syndicated to many local search sites.
