Mediahouse and LocalRobot worked quickly on the launch.  Based on the flexible and sophisticated YellowBot platform we could setup the new site in just a few months from the decision to build this business was made.

We're still doing some post-launch tweaks to the listings and the site (and of course the site gets all the ongoing upgrades from the YellowBot platform), but go have a look!

Ask Bjørn Hansen Everybody needs a directory of local businesses. Originally they were all the bricks of paper that we all know so well. As Will Hanke writes they were briefly published on CD’s as well before starting to go online.

Of course the books are still being printed, but they are moving online fast. How fast? That’s up for debate and of course different from market to market (in particular internationally), but there’s more and more evidence that at least in North America it is going very fast.

Nearly a year after being launched, weblocal.ca has truly surpassed its goals. It has become a company that sets itself apart by being close to its public in order to better assess their needs and foster relationships. From kiosks set up in summer festivals to television contests aimed at students, all are simply a means to an end.

Weblocal.ca is seeking to become closer to people by offering a quality Website, generated by users. “We have counted over 2 million unique visitors per month*, which is much more than our original goal of 600,000 visitors!

There are also over 20,000 pictures and 2500 videos on Weblocal.ca less than one year after launch.
