We are about to launch a paid directory listing/ yellow page services locally in our area. (The directory website is having good traffic and SERP). We are considering to hire a few people here to contact the shops and other institutes to add their link in the yellow pages for a fixed price per year. Whats your opinion about it? What are the possible difficulties that we may encounter? Looking for your suggestions!
Yes its a good idea. The problem you may face is the with the already established yellow page especially the printed version. So i suggest you to lower the price and offer a print out version.
