  1. What are the key differences between Localeze and your competitors?
    Unlike our competitors, we build our file to perform optimally in local-search applications. We do this by focusing on consumer-facing business-generated content. Our content collection focuses on information that is relevant for local search such as services a business offers, brands carried, products sold, hours of operation and payment methods accepted. Our content will allow a local-search application to pick up what makes a specific business unique among businesses within that same category.
  2. What type of content does Localeze offer?
    Localeze offers a complete set of data attributes allowing local-search applications to accurately answer both recovery- and discovery-type local-search queries. These attributes include but are not limited to: business name, address, phone number and eleven different levels of descriptive keyword metadata describing the unique fabric of a business.
  3. What are your primary sources of data and content?
    Our data sources include Web crawling, business White Pages, Directory Assistance sources, search-engine marketing, search-engine optimization, interactive agencies, telco sources and cable operators. We also offer a rich base of business data supplied directly by merchants.
  4. What is the level of US data coverage?
    We have a complete national footprint of data, accurately including all geographies and business verticals.
  5. How do you validate and verify business listings?
    We check the accuracy of our entire file using proprietary technology that verifies our entire file each and every month with telecommunication carriers.
  6. What are the benefits of the Localeze content for local-directory sites?
    First and foremost, the Localeze local-search database offers the ability to accurately answer both discovery and recovery types of local searches. In addition, our deep, descriptive keywords will help a local-search application establish relevancy as a good source of local content to the major search engines.

    Also, the unique content we offer on millions of businesses will allow a search application to deliver traffic to more unique businesses within a geo-specific area, making it easier to sell those businesses advertising.
  7. How can your product help our local-directory site generate traffic?
    Today there are a limited number of US repositories that offer detailed business descriptions, so companies that work with Localeze stand out. As one of the leading sources of such content, the Localeze local-search repository can help our partners grow their organic search-engine traffic. Our local-search data will allow our search partners to compete for relevancy even among finely-grained searches in small communities, such as when consumers look for a truck rental service in Dubuque, Iowa.
