Rebranded Canadian Local Search Site ZipLocal Launches

Mar 26, 2007 at 9:35am ET by Greg Sterling

ZipLocal is a new, consolidated “Web 2.0″ local search destination growing out of a number of earlier local search sites including Zip411.net and redToronto.com, among them. Here’s an example results page for “Sushi , Toronto.” The site has many Ajax features and offers send to mobile, as well as the capacity to email listed businesses. It is also using technology from Urban Mapping to improve search results.

Greg Sterling is a Contributing Editor at Search Engine Land, and writes a personal blog Screenwerk, examining the broader world of media and advertising. He also posts at a Local Mobile Search, which is focused on the mobile Internet.
