We use yell.com...started as a free listing, you can upload quite a bit without paying...we put our toe in the water and now pay £165 per month for our area. And it does bring in work. Too early to say whether its worth the outlay, but it only needs one to become an account doesn't it?

I also think that most people searching online tend to be punters rather than businesses, so one offs....although i'm sure someone will prove me wrong

Just set up a free listing with Yell so will see what happens, if i type in "Courier" in my area then usually Yell is up there near the top so thats where i would look if i was a customer looking for a courier service.

Thats wot i did, but i put in sameday courier, noted all the free index sites that jam up all the bleeding 1st page, then made sure i put my listing on em all.

Google maps is a really good one to list with
