Online Business Directories Are Here to Stay
You probably know by now the importance of being listed online (posting a business listing on online business directories, and adding/claiming local business listings online for local search). There are a lot of online business directories and websites to list a business on out there. Not only that, there are many local directories for niche products and services.
How do you know which online business directories businesses should be listed on to get the best ROI? It’s great to list a business on other online directories besides the big ones—Google, Facebook, Bing—but which ones make sense to invest time and effort in adding/claiming a local business listing on?
The Top 100 Online Business Directories: We Ranked the Impossible
There are a ton (and I mean ton) of “top {insert number here} lists” of online business directories out there. Aside from the obvious ones like Google, Yelp, Bing, etc, what makes a site worthy of such an honor? Well, we’ve crunched the numbers for the big guys and all the non-obvious online local directories as well. And yes, we know that since this is internet information it can change quickly, however, this guide serves as a snapshot and reference point for the top 100 local business directories on the web, as backed by a ton of data and research.
Pro Tip- Start at the Top and Work Your Way Down (Just Like Business Listings Mountain!)
Where applicable, that is (this all depends on yourbudget and if it is a niche, whether the niche fits). While the ranks and information may change over time, we hope that from this resource you will know which tools to use, and what to look for in an online business directory to judge if it makes sense to create a local business listing on.
With many services pushing to so many online business directories, this list will act as a reference point to judge which services may or may not make sense for a business to invest in or not. If a business choose to list on these online business directories individually themselves, this list serves as a great guide, with an executive summary description of each local business directory (in conjunction with the table format of the list), helping to navigate the landscape of the local business listing and online business directory world.
The Top 100 Online Business Directories: The List
The Top 100 Online Business Directories: Getting to Know Your Directories
#1 Google
Google’s Google My Business is a free tool for businesses to manage their online presence across Google, including Search and Maps. By verifying and editing business directory listing information, you can help customers find a business through their local search.
Cost to List on Google’s Business Directory
It is free for the business listing directory portion (unless you want to show up in ads).
Who Uses Google’s Business Listings Directory
Any user who uses Google as a search engine. Users are statistically a younger demographic. They are typically college/university educated and Facebook users. Within the last month, Google had over 175 million unique US visitors. Alexa data shows a fairly even representation across all demographic groups and segments.
Why Businesses Should Be Listed On Google My Business
Businesses need to be listed on Google because it is a large online local directory, a large volume of users go through the site (175 million in a month in the US alone!), it can improve search engine page ranking, businesses can show up in local search with key terms, a business can be easily found on Google Maps, and it’s a cost-effective form of local marketing. Hard to say that in one breath! Really, though, who needs to be convinced that they need to be listed on Google?
Google’s Business Listing Reach
Google’s search engine performs over 3.5 billion searches per day. Within the last month, Google had 32.30 billion total unique visits globally. The search engine has become a verb–the prevalence is obvious.

In case you’ve been living in a cave or are an ageing hipster with an aversion to trending technology, Facebook is a social networking website.

Companies can create business profiles that users can follow.

- slightly more by those who earn 60K-100K
- slightly more by those who view the site from school
- slightly more Caucasians and Middle Eastern groups than the average internet population
Why Businesses Should Get a Facebook Business Listing
It’s free to post a business on the site, and the 117 million unique US visitors is more than enough volume to justify creating or claiming a business’ presence. Users can follow a company through updates or posts, and customers can post reviews about their experience with a business on Facebook. Because it is widely recognized as the most robust social network and has the largest user base, reviews and feedback on Facebook are essential content for local businesses.
A Facebook Business Listing’s Potential Reach
There are 1.59 billion active Facebook users worldwide. Within the last month, Facebook had 29.5 billion total unique visits globally (Similarweb).
Is Facebook Mobile Friendly?
Yes. Facebook for mobile is available in the App Store and Google Play Store (though you likely knew that already).
Other Notes On Facebook’s Business Listings

#3 Yahoo!
Yahoo! is a portal website that incorporates a search engine and a directory of websites organized in a hierarchy of categories. Yahoo!

Yahoo! is used:
- slightly more by women and slightly less by men

Why Businesses Should Get Listed on Yahoo’s Online Business Directory
There are varying opinions as to how effective the local business directory listings are versus the price you pay for the service. My advice? Take a look at the Yahoo! Local directory website before you purchase—maybe even try searching for a few businesses. If you like what you see, then it may be worth the investment to have a local business listed here.

Businesses Should Get a Twitter Business Listing Because…
Local businesses can put advertisements on Twitter, connect with potential customers, network, tweet about sales to followers and so on. However, there is a catch… other than posting an ad, Twitter, like any other social media platform, can be a large time investment to maintain a presence. There are platforms and services you can use to assist with maintaining a presence on Twitter, but compare the costs and benefits and see if it makes in the use case of each business.
Twitter’s Network Size
Within the last month, Twitter had 3.1 billion total unique visits globally (Similarweb).
Is Twitter Mobile Responsive?
Yes. Twitter is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.

Reasons to Get Your Business Listed On LinkedIn’s Business Directory
Depending on the type of company and product or service offered, businesses likely want to spend the time to create a profile on Linkedin. Creating a listing is free, and potential applicants and vendors alike can find businesses here. My advice would be to go on the site and look around for similar businesses. If competitors are on there, businesses should likely follow suit and make a profile. A Linkedin profile appeals to most businesses in most verticals.
LinkedIn’s Network Reach
Within the last six months, LinkedIn had 996.2 million total visits globally, which is approximately 166 million visits a month.
Is LinkedIn Mobile Friendly?
Yes. LinkedIn for mobile is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.

The Importance of Instagram as a Business Directory
Again, it depends on the industry of the company and what type of product or service they offer. Businesses may or may not want to spend the time to create a profile on Instagram. It is free, but is a platform that has strong visual appeal and is not ideal for all businesses (unless they get creative). Instagram is the ideal platform for brands that have a unique product that can be showcased through strong imagery.
What is the Size of Instagram’s User Base?
Within the last month, Instagram had 1.5 billion total unique visits globally (Similarweb).
Is Instagram Mobile Responsive?
Yes. Instagram is available in the App Store and Google Play Store. In fact, Instagram is nearly a mobile only application, not allowing users to post from a desktop.

Much like the other social media platforms, information on Instagram moves quickly. Businesses need to post consistently to ensure their following knows they are active and passionate about that community.

- more by Asians and Caucasians; less than the internet average by African, African American, Hispanic, Middle Eastern and “other” demographic groups
The Importance of Bing’s Local Business Directory
For businesses with a target market is the US, Bing may be a good alternative—76.1 million visitors a month is a large volume of searches. Businesses may have a better chance of standing out by putting their listing on Bing, since less people are advertising here than Google. This could be especially true if businesses decide to do pay-per-click advertising on Bing (aborg.com).
Bing’s Network Span
Within the last month, Bing had 1.1 billion total unique visits globally (Similarweb).

For the online business directory portion of the site specifically, it takes a few clicks to get through to the yellow pages portion.
