Question About Yahoo & Local Directories

[Jeremy]

So Karl and I were talking today trying to figure this out. His business is listed throughout a bunch of these directories:

Rockform Tooling & Machinery, Rockford, IL : Reviews and maps - Yahoo! Local

Rockform Tooling & Machinery Inc, Rockford IL 61109 -- MerchantCircle.com

and several others.....

So here is the dilemma. They moved to a new building over a year ago and all these directories still have his old address. So the question is, are they all pulling this info from one spot, or does he need to manually go in and edit all these.

Much appreciated.......

I know many directories will scrape yellowpages.com, so that would probably be a good place to start.

[Michael Martinez]

Yeah, I'd hit the authoritative directories and pretty much leave the scraper sites alone.

For yahoo i have got a account for all my land based business's, if there is ever a change i can go in and change them. I know in the UK most phone books i.e. YP, phone book and thompson have got deals with the smaller directoires like upmystreet.com etc, and they add them onto there free listings for you. So i would start on the big phone book providers where you should have a manager looking after your accont... call him and bitch! it works for me
