BALTIMORE, May 30 /PRNewswire/ — SearchMaryland.com, a directory website which serves as a resource for Maryland consumers, businesses, and tourists to find local businesses and establishments, announced today the launch of their newly redesigned website. The website was originally launched in 2004 by Ephricon Web Marketing — — an internet marketing firm based in Baltimore, MD.
The Maryland web directory is unique because it is one of the few online directory sites which are human-edited. This helps filter out spam entries and companies from out of the area who hope to add customers, sometimes by using misleading methods. The current fee is a mere $20 per review, while the new version is rolled out.
“We believe this resource will prove to be very valuable to local Maryland businesses,” says Payne, who has over five years in the internet marketing industry. “We’ve already had positive feedback from a few clients who are getting traffic to their sites and we just launched this new version earlier in the week.”
One of those satisfied clients is Dataprise, Inc. — — an IT consulting firm based out of Rockville, Maryland. Payne says the IT consulting company was able to generate additional traffic to their site through SearchMaryland. “Dataprise continues to effectively grow their online presence as a way of marketing their quality services to their target market - and the SearchMaryland directory is one of many factors that is contributing to their success.”
Mandrin Homes — — who specializes in upscale communities in Maryland and Delaware that are backed by Quality Builders’ 10-year warranty, and TLC Bridal Boutique — — in Frederick, Maryland, also continue to gain online exposure thanks to SearchMaryland.
“These are just a few companies who have expressed satisfaction with the amount of visitors their websites have gained since joining SearchMaryland,” Payne says. “Now that the site is up-to-date with more capabilities, we believe that as SearchMaryland continues to grow exposure, so will the local Maryland companies who decide to list with us.”
“Since the SearchMaryland website ranks well in search engines such as Google and Yahoo, getting a listing on our site is one highly-effective way for Maryland small businesses to tap into the power of SEO and search traffic without spending a great deal of time or money optimizing their own site. Our site is optimized, and so visitors will find our clients sites as a result of finding our site. It’s a win-win, and in the end we’re delivering a tremendous value by providing a source of high-quality, local businesses that is free of spam or blatant promotional tactics.”
