The Major Difference

Yelp and Google list you. We promote you.

A listing site stops at your name, address and reviews. We take your business info, photos and video — and post them across the four biggest social platforms, included for our local businesses. Then we go further, building value with personal local information and guides only a real city network can publish.

Your business, posted on:

TikTokInstagramYouTubeFacebook

A directory row with your name and a review score

A rich profile with your info, photos and video — built and maintained for you

You wait and hope customers find you in search

We push your business out on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook — included

Ads from your competitors sit right next to your listing

Featured and Category Exclusive placements keep competitors off your page

Generic national platform, zero local knowledge

Real local guides, neighborhood coverage and personal city information that builds lasting value

No other platform combines a city’s own website, an AI concierge and four social channels into one package for a local business. That combination — website placement plus social amplification plus genuine local knowledge — is what makes Local City Network different from every directory that came before it.
