Advertise To Local Ottawa Area Consumers
2 Tiers of Advertising: FREE and LOW COST PREMIUM
*See Restrictions in Page Footer*
WHAT IS YOUR SERVICE AREA?
- Many businesses serve surrounding communities as well as the immediate area around their business location. Being able to advertise directly to those external communities may certainly be beneficial to most businesses!
- For instance, if you are located on in downtown Ottawa, your consumers might still come from surrounding communities.
- Registering for our low cost Premium option will allow you to choose every city or town where your potential customers are located. When a consumer looking for your type of business searches within their own location, you will show up if you chose that city or town as part of your service area.
- Check out the differences between our two plans and you can decide which is best for you!
PREMIUM OPTION BENEFITS
- Do your customers come from neighbouring cities and towns? Once you have registered for the Premium plan, you can add as many areas as you wish at no additional cost - consumers who search that location will see your listing!
- Does your business serve an entire Province? One click of a button lets you add every city and town within that Province, allowing consumers to find you when they search for your type of business in their own location.
- Does your business serve customers right across the Country? No problem - one click and your listing will appear in over 8000 cities and towns in Canada.
- An additional benefit from an advertising point of view is that the business can add their logo as well as up to 4 additional images to showcase their products and services.
FREE OPTION
- When you sign up for our free option, it is for as long as you want it - there is no trial period and we don't require your credit card!
- We offer a simple informational space for free where you can describe your business and give your contact information, but contrary to many online directories, we don't charge for that service. Your listing will show up in the city you entered when you registered.
- The Free option allows for only one location per business, even when it is a franchise. Please note that adding locations that you service in your description does not help customers find you.
- This free option includes a space to add a link to your website and a short description of your business.
- For the free option, the subscriber must upload their own information using our simple and straightforward system.
- First you register, then once that's done, return to the Register/Login button and login with the credentials that you set up, then start typing. It's that easy.

Avoid The High Cost of Internet Advertising!
Businesses need as much internet exposure as possible. Having an effective website is great, but it is also important for businesses, both big and small, to have a variety of types of internet presence. However, the cost of online advertising can be daunting for a small business - it's amazing how much people are expected to pay for the different types of internet advertising! Most paid business directories average $200 a month or more, with some even asking $5,000 a year or more!
Bottom line?
Advertise your business on our Local Business Portal for the incredibly low price of $49.99 a month (and take advantage of our current half price special!)!
And of course, if you prefer, you can take advantage of our FREE option too!
