Sussex Business Directory Benefits

How our directory can promote your Sussex business

We have spent the last few months re-designing the Sussex Business Directory so its packed full of useful features for Sussex businesses, but more importantly ensuring that the listings in the Directory are fully optimised for all of the major search engines.

This ensures that for only £40.00 per year your business is being promoted 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to hundreds of thousands of potential customers.

All major search engines work by searching websites for new content and links. As the Sussex Business Directory will contain both correctly structured and relevent text and image links from our site to yours, it creates a clear pathway for the search engine spiders to locate your site. The more spiders hitting your site, the higher your ranking will be. In addition, if you do not have a website, your info page within the Directory will act as a webpage for your business, again being found by the search engine spiders and giving you a superb web presence. (If you are looking to build a website or upgrade your current site please contact Micronet IT web design based in Shoreham-by-Sea

There is a rule of thumb associated with customers searching for businesses on the web. This states that if a customer cannot find what they are looking for on the first two pages of any search, then they tend not to look on page three. Therefore if you do a search on, say Google, for Shoreham-by-sea builders and your website or business details do not appear on the first two pages, then you will, potentially, lose that customer.

A good method of seeing how well your companies web presence is, is to search with key words and phrases. For example, if your company is called Johns Window Cleaners and it operates in the Brighton area, go to Google or one of the other search engines and search for window cleaners in brighton, brighton based window cleaners, specialist window cleaners in sussex. Do not just search for Johns Window Cleaners, because you can bet that your potential customers won't. You'll probably be suprised with the results of this little test and if your website is below page three of any of the searches, the Sussex Business Directory will help boost your web presense enormously.
