BALTIMORE, May 30 MD-SearchMaryland.com
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 -- http://www.ephricon.com -- 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. --
http://www.dataprise.com/services_consulting.aspx -- 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 -- http://www.mandrinhomes.com -- who specializes in upscale
communities in Maryland and Delaware that are backed by Quality Builders'
10-year warranty, and TLC Bridal Boutique -- http://www.tlcboutique.com -- 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."
Maryland business owners can begin listing on SearchMaryland by going to
