Hi all! I just recently started a small business in Northern Ontario and came across a platform called Northern Ontario Local. I read that it helps local businesses connect with customers in their city and they even claim to have helped thousands of customers. I am interested but I don't know how useful it really is. Does anyone have any experience using it? Has your business seen a significant increase in traffic thanks to this platform? Is it worth spending money on this service or should I look elsewhere?

Sounds like a good idea, especially for those looking to increase their local visibility. I've heard of this platform myself, but I don't use it myself. It seems like if you're in a region with a limited market, these specialized platforms can be really helpful.
Hi! I have been using Local Business Directory for a few months now and I can share my experience. If you are in Northern Ontario and your business is focused specifically on the local audience, this platform can be a real treasure. At first, when I learned about LBD, I was also skeptical. I read a lot of different reviews, and many mentioned that it seemed like a good way for local companies to enter the market, but there were also those who were skeptical about such platforms in general. But I took the plunge and registered, and the result pleasantly surprised me. The first thing worth noting is their approach to promotion. The platform is focused exclusively on small and medium businesses in the region, and this allows you not to compete with global giants like Google or Facebook. The problem with such large platforms is that if you do not use paid advertising, it will be difficult for you to stand out among thousands of other companies. Here, everything is focused only on your local audience, and you find yourself in the focus of those who can actually become your client.
