Very easy, but you either need a local phone number or adress to complete the registration

 

Getting listed on local results is very important for local businesses.

 

Dandy68 is right, go to the local business centre and follow the instructions You will need to validate your listing but you can do this by taking a phonecall from Google.

 

they also give you a code that you can validate, no need for phonecall, just type it in when u get it...

 

It's one of the easiest things you can do for your site, particularly a new one. Geo-targeting is a good strategic decision to begin an internet marketing campaign.
Local.com, Bing, and Yahoo are also easy to register with.

 

Yeah,In some niches local listings get more traffic then organic listings, how to rank local is the newest SEO question.
Makes me wonder, when will Google and others start charging for it?

 

You'll get the best results with and address which is central in your local city if you predominantly sell locally!
