(firmenpresse) - The results of a new study conducted by Search Engine Land are making a serious impact on how local business owners think about local search results. The case study shows that of all the local searches, 33 percent of them come from people who are just visiting the city. €œThat€™s significant in terms of how local businesses should choose to market their business online,€ says a spokesman from FindUSLocal, a local business directory that uses GEO technology to point visitors to local businesses in their city.
Another recent study showed that 95 percent of all mobile users search for local businesses using their phones, and this latest case study may shed some light on who these people are. €œRestaurant owners, small specialty shops, or any other type of business that caters to out of town visitors should take this study to heart,€ says the spokesman. €œAnd the best place to make sure you get noticed by them is to list your business on a [local directory](http://www.finduslocal.com/).€Â
Local business directories are all the rage right now with digital marketers. Because other attempts at local search marketing have fallen short, people are excited about the fact that there is finally a platform that seems to be working well for local searches. €œGetting your business listed on a [local business directory](http://www.finduslocal.com/) is easy,€ says the spokesman. €œJust list your business and the relevant information such as your street address and phone number, and out of town visitors who are looking for your type of business will find you.€Â
Another important fact revealed in the study is that out of town visitors typically spend about twice as much on purchases than residents, and that€™s another reason local business owners should get serious about listing their business in a local directory.
