Submit Your Site to the Yahoo! Canada Directory

August 7th, 2008

Particularly if you have a business in the northern tier of states, you know that there is a sizable Canadian market to be tapped, filled with consumers eager to spend their “loonies” in the “lower 48”. There is no better way to reach this market than to be listed in one of their major directories. Many people are not aware that the Yahoo! Canada Directory includes listings of U.S. businesses, if you drill down into the proper categories. For example, let’s say you own a seafood restaurant at the Jersey Shore. You would start with Recreation > Travel > By Region > U.S. States > New Jersey > Counties & Regions > Jersey Shore > Restaurants > Seafood. If yours is not one of the three seafood restaurants which are currently listed, click on the Suggest a Site link in the upper right of the page, then choose the Standard (free) Consideration, and follow the instructions. Keep in mind that you MUST reach the most appropriate page where your site should be listed before beginning the submission process.
