Reader Timothy A. e-mailed me last week to suggest an update to the Citysearch information I have in my Local Search Marketing Guide. The page layout had changed so my explanation wasn’t accurate, and I’ve replaced the old image with a new one.

Tim also asked, Is there a way to submit a new business listing for free? He noticed that the “Add Your Business” links all went to Citysearch’s paid advertising program. With some help from Greg, I tracked down Brandi from Citysearch Marketing and shared Tim’s question with her. The answer? Yes, you can submit a listing for free:

“We have a form that can be accessed at http://national.citysearch.com/corrections.

The current version is a bit misleading since it says Make a Correction (it is in the process of being redesigned), but if someone fills out the information, the new business will be added into the system.”

Great to know! Brandi also said the new form should be available in about a month. Thanks to Tim for the question, and thanks to Brandi for the answer.

Have a question I might be able to answer? Or one I might be able to get answered? I’d love to do more mailbag-style posts, so contact me with whatever is on your mind and I’ll do the best I can…
