Unique Visits Quadruple to Northern California Local Search Directory

Cameron Park, CA (PRWEB) April 22, 2006 -- In a sign that local Internet search is booming as much as national search engines like Google or Yahoo, visits to www.eldoradobusiness.com have been growing at a phenomenal rate. Unique visits to the site have jumped from 2209 in March of 2005 to 9082 in March of this year. There was still a considerable climb over the last six months with November's unique visits totaling 4972.

Eldoradobusiness.com is an online business directory consisting of every business and organization in El Dorado County, a Northern California County between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe. Businesses and services may be found by directly selecting categories, or by an efficient keyword search.

«This shows that not only is our own marketing of eldoradobusiness.com paying off, but also that local residents are happy with the search results they find on the site, and they come back again and again to consistently find what they need,» Explains Shiva Frentzen, President of CAL Internet Services which is the parent behind eldoradobusiness.com. «People are now more inclined to use the Internet to find local merchants than they are the Yellow Pages.»

Search engines like Google and Yahoo do have local search, but it is not nearly refined like eldoradobusiness.com is. Visitors are able to zero in to specifically what they are looking for, and search results from other areas won't be mixed in. «Many times if someone is doing a local search on Google, they will actually end up with a result that sends them to eldoradobusiness.com anyway,» Frentzen says.

Providing motivation to keep residents shopping locally is also important to many communities. The major Chambers of Commerce in El Dorado County recently launched a shop local campaign called Neighboromics, which directs residents to eldoradobusiness.com so that they can find the appropriate local company to do business with. «Eldoradobusiness.com can have an enormous role in promoting economic activity in El Dorado County over the long run,» says Shawna Purvines, Economic Development Director for El Dorado County. «It helps to reinforce everything that we have available right here, rather then people looking outside the county for certain goods and services.»
