The Market Goes Local

With mordenwinklerdealers.com you get a presence on the local market, where buyers are.

A recent J.D. Powers study shows that over 80% of the people shopping for vehicles search the internet before entering any dealership and the trends show they search locally

The emphasis on more local search results reflects an emerging change in how people are looking things up.

As more homes sign up for high-speed Internet connections that make it easier to call up Web pages, people increasingly are turning to the Internet before the Yellow Pages for business referrals, said Greg Sterling, who studies local search for The Kelsey Group.

c|net News. On Wednesday, the Web search company unveiled Google Local, which has been tested in the company's research and development lab for the last 8 months.

"A lot of times when people are looking for something, they want to do it on a local level...This is a core search promise," said Marissa Mayer, Google's director of consumer Web products, who helped build the service with a team of engineers from Google's New York office.

There's no arguing that "local" is an important aspect of Internet search. According to the Kelsey Group, local search makes up 25% of Internet commercial activity (more than double the previous prognostication of 10%). Meanwhile, the research firm believes the market for local paid-search advertising will reach $2.5 billion by 2008.

With the new features, Google is joining an accelerating push to become more local. Last week, Yahoo! Inc. introduced a similar provincial tool, called SmartView, and Verizon Communications recently overhauled its SuperPages.com site to deliver more useful local results.
