Default Yellow pages UK
Has anyone advertised in Yellow pages and actually got some business?

An I.T Consultancy company i worked for when I left university advertised in Yellow pages for one year and got no business at all.

Has it worked for you?

Simple answer, no. We paid £2000 per year for a 'featured' listing for our most competitive keywords. From that, we receive less than 10 potential customers to our site per month. To my knowledge, only one customer has mentioned they found us through Yell.com and actually made a purchase (of little value). I wouldn't advise paying for it next year, that £2k could go a long way in online advertising.

What sites do you run if you don't mind sharing

By the way, do you stock solar powered water products for gardens such as water fall products?

Yes, we do indeed This is a product range I am looking to add to the site within the next week, as well as a revision of the current categories. They will most likely be added in the 'Gardenwares and Water Features' section. Though we do sell via telephone/instore for home delivery on products not currently on our site, too

I am looking to purchase one in the next few days. I will hang on for your range. Hope you're not too expensive

Haha, you'll be surprised. An inhouse saying: Cheaper than Dobbies.

And we're not the only ones that say it, too. Shame I can't post live links to show you

Cheers
