Google Local stickers spotted in India
| Tweet | Share |
Looks like Google is getting down to the grass roots with some traditional advertising. Probably the right choice when it comes to Google Local, where it is much easier to reach the local business.
These stickers were spotted at an eat out in Cochin, Kerala.
yeppieee I saw one of these yesterday, at bakery, near Palarivattom
So Google has started to appear offline too. There is no way that we can live without google…
Yea, They took a few minutes of my time asking about my business and stuff for a free listing and stuff…..then stuck up a sticker at the door.
The a guy from bangalore called up and verified and activated the listing. Though I have no idea which keyword brings up my listing..lol
Google Local India is in fact approving Local listings for sure. But you should’ve applied for it. They are promoting it with free listings? Thats news !
yeps… It seems tht these kids who took the information from me get from money from google….they are basically collecting data for the future…They might be planning to do something on the lines of Just Dial on a massive free scale…advertisers will line up for sure.
but ironically…the shop downstairs declined to give any info saying tht since its free…its worthless….typical…
That’s weird. Already businesses are out there on Local. And me too. I don’t know if Google will pay college students to collect data. Should be one of their project work or something. But if Google is realy doing it…interesting !
I can give them ad space in my room for a cheaper price… Let any googler contact me
LOl That should sound very attractive to Google, Pavan.
It has long been a serious campaign for google to encourage local search so local bloggers and seo would optimize it for google search engine.
Google start use offline method now? maybe google think that no everyone in the world online so they try to expand their google brand name so one day everybody in earth know google.
Wow I remember marketing Pilgrim announced a while back that Google was going offline in advertising…this is the first I’ve seen though.
Search Engine Land had reported way back in 2007, similar ads in the UK.
Google is such a strong brand, as the popular phrase “just google it” can attest to. This is a two way win-win situation for both Google and people advertising via Google Local.
I have seen it…
