Over the past few months, we’ve talked about the growing popularity of digital coupons in the online—and offline—local shopping experience. As Neg Norton noted in a column on Search Engine Land in March, approximately 35% of U.S. online users surveyed in a recent Compete.com study said they visited coupon sites when shopping online.
So it comes as no surprise that the Yellow Pages industry is increasingly adding online coupon offerings as a means of driving new business leads for its customers.
This morning, Dex One was the latest YP provider to join the trend. The company announced a new service that allows businesses to “create, publish, and prominently display unique digital coupons” on Dex One’s popular local search sites, including DexKows.com and DexKnows Weddings. Businesses can customize their coupons with unique messages, logos, and other features, according to the company.
Earlier this year, SuperMedia launched 72 city-specific Twitter accounts that distribute thousands of coupons from its local business listings at no cost to owners.
I’m glad to see that our industry is taking advantage of this new opportunity to provide businesses and potential customers with yet another platform to find one another and complete sales.
