How Would You Promote an Online Business Directory

This is a little different than my usual websites.

There is a business directory for specific cities that has spots for accountants, plummers, doctors etc.

Would you promote at the city level (we have different cities like Orlando, Atlanta etc) or would you promote at position level (accountants Atlanta, plummers Atlanta).

If I promote at city level (Keywords would be "[city] business directory") - that should be pretty easy. But who really looks up business directories? People would be looking up (in my view) "Accountants Atlanta" or something like that.

Just wondering how you guys would promote a business directory...

    I would go with position level, although it will be tougher.

    You need to do both.

    For instance, "Atlanta accountants," "accountants in Atlanta," "best accountants in Atlanta," "find accountants Atlanta," etc.

      Someone searching for a plumber in Atlanta is not going to be too well served if they find one in Orlando.

      I think you answered your own question.

      If it is a local business directory, you need to target local keywords to make it worthwhile.
