I presume it's similar to Yelp, HotFrog etc. Anyone have any experience with it? Thought I should ask around a bit before randomly filling out the info for the free listing.
Ted, I am a member of most of those free listings. I use that listing, but I cannot say that anyone has called me directly from that listing. The more places your company is listed, the better off you are. They all require some initial set up time, but 1 job makes them worth the time.
If you don't have a Merchant Circle account, get yourself one of them. They do really well if you set them up right.

Thanks gentlemen. I did some more checking after posting that question, and saw that 'MyHuckleberry' had jumped to page 1 of Google searches seemingly overnight around here. I created an account:
I've read some horror story reviews about Merchant Circle, but everyone here at the RCIA speaks highly of it. I'll take a peek at yours Brian, and get a presence there too.
Thanks again guys.
*edit* found you both on Merchant Circle. I added another 5 start rating to your respective collections

Rather than start yet another thread, thought I'd keep it here:
I plan to spend the off season beefing up all aspects of my marketing, SEO, web presence, increasing funnel etc. It's otherwise down time, so I'm going to blow the lid off come this spring, by doing all of the pre-work now.
With that said, I just subscribed to Angies List. I know a lot of folks are already on it - it's nothing new. What I wasn't aware of until I got an account, was the massive amount of intel that is available on the competition, especially 'the franchise'.
Reviews list the price/cost for each job! What is not clear, is the size of the home, but for some reviews you can get a rough idea, ie 4 BR Dutch Colonial.
Oh yes, and many of the reviews on 'the franchise' mention granual loss.......
I'll be working up my ad on Anglies List very soon, using hard facts to my advantage as usual. With a promo code of POWER and paying via Paypal, it only cost $18 for a year. The intel is worth that alone.
LOL, already there Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa Florida, been there for awhile Free is Free, so why not ? Every link helps, so here is one that can really help you, but before you post there, do a search on how to use Keyword Luv ? This Tampa Small Business Blog is very well ranked, and 3 posts on it, in different topics, will provide great backlinks for any of your websites! Simply add something intelligent to the conversation threads going on on that blog, and I promise you, in a month or so, watch what happens to your web ranking.

Brian - I've had over 100 hits in NO TIME at all since I started the MerchantCircle page - thanks again. I'll begin some blogs on there soon as well, as you (and others) have done. Also a big thanks to a couple of my VA RCIA colleagues that educated me on MC as well.
For anyone that has a spare minute or two, if you'd kindly help to increase my number of 5 star ratings to further improve my MC rankings, I'll do the same for you? You just have to click the fifth star, simple and fast.

Ted, I wrote you a "bad review"
Man, if that's a bad one, I can't imagine what a good one looks like? LOL.
Thank you Chris - I just read it and am smiling ear to year. I'll gladly return the favor.
write a review Ted, MY merchant circle page is one of the most highly ranked ones, a written review will get you a great link!
Done. Wrote you a 'bad one' too LOL I even left you a little icon thingy at the top of the page.
Today I signed on for SuperPages.Com. although it'll be Monday at the earliest before it's reviewed and released. I'm going to try and do one of these free listings every day for as long as I can find them.

Thanks a mil Dave (and Brian F). I've done the same for your respective companies on MC. I'm moving up the state rankings very fast, due in part to your help.

Thanks Hoovermaneuver. How'd you do that via an alias? I was on MC a few minutes ago before I checked in here, and you had me fooled! Nice! I'd like to do the same for you?

I just went to your site and gave one of my other email addresses and my old Va. Zip code. I wasn't logged in to merchant. I went in like any Harry home owner would.

Ted I'm pressed for time, but I clicked a five star rating for you & "liked" you on facebook. When I get all my postcards in the mail I'll write you a review. Same goes for the rest of y'all.
Here is another http://www.activesearchresults.com
