If you do business in your local area and you have not already registered your business with Google places, do so now here.

Registering your address with Google will get your more business, because you will be found on more searches.

Google automatically detects where a person's computer is and gives search results for that area using the information you provide
in Google places.

If someone in Miami searches for "architect" and you registered yoru architecture business in South Florida, you have a much better
chance of getting shown than your competitor who did not bother to register with Google.

Spending 30 minutes filling out some web forms, is time well spent that will keep marketing for you indefinitely.

Google has made some enhancements to their local business search. Here are some of the features in Google's own words.

----- from Google ----
Don't have a brick-and-mortar storefront, or prefer not to give customers your home address? Show customers your Service Area.
