What sites would you recommend for posting free business listings?

My husband owns a small transportation business (very similar to what taxis do), and we are always looking for great ways to cheaply or freely advertise. I do his business cards, flyers, and other items. But it seems that nothing beats a few good listings. Phone books, however, are so awfully expensive. And I was wondering if anyone could recommend some sites on which I could post listings / ads for his business. Cheap would be fine. But as everyone knows, nothing beats free stuff. So are there any such sites offering free business listings / ads that you would recommend?

Thank you kindly for your input.

  1. you should see http://www.BiznFin.com
    try it. i hope that will help you
    there are many other sites on answers.yahoo.com but i think its good

  2. A mere search in google wil help you .. thought with the free stuff there may be some pros and cons. i had the same problem when i tried the same with my company which is a sub -broking company with help of reliance money online trading..

  3. You’ll already have seen some of these websites …. but maybe not!

    gohuman.com : especially good if you want to target a market in a particular zip code area
    Craigslist : good to target a city – but your advertisements have to be renewed regularly and there is a lot of spam on the site. Your advertisement only appears on the top until the next person places a listing, causing yours to drop down the page.
    classifieds.org
    sell.com : mostly paid advertising, some free available
    oodle.com : looks pretty good, but I haven’t tried it
    backpage.com : I’ve been told this is good, so it’s worth a look

    And here are a couple of others I’ve just come across — I haven’t looked at them, but you might want to.
    adpost.com
    epage.com

    The first one, http://www.gohuman.com is really good because you can link your listing both to a category and a zipcode — so it gets targeted at the particular area you want it to be seen. You can also get current customers and friends to give you an endorsement on the site to make potential customers a bit more comfortable with you because you then have a reputation.

    Good luck!
