San Diego, California - (Website Hosting Directory) - May 31, 2007 - Search solution, Local.com, has enhanced its application, with drill-down search capabilities, for more streamlined results and added functionality.

Bruce Crair, President and COO of Local.com remarked, ''We continually strive to deliver a better local search experience for our users. Our new user interface allows for easier point-and-click navigation, and is directly related to our strategy of growing our page views per user and driving repeat traffic. We believe Local.com is one of the only local search engines offering users the ability to refine their searches quickly using numerous filters. As a result of the new layout we have seen an immediate page view per visitor increase.''

Local.com lists over 16 million businesses nationwide, and recently introduced its Local Promote service. Local Promote allows businesses to list and update their business information and description on Local.com, further increasing the accuracy and relevance of search results on Local.com. Local.com is currently receiving hundreds of requests per day from businesses wanting to update their profiles, and it is expected that these businesses will be targeted with the company's other local ad products.

The new site navigation and refined user interface, is hoped to offer a more streamlined look and feel on the search results page, with fewer advertising units. The site now exhibits a three-column design to provide space for the intuitive navigation panel, which provides advanced features that enable users to easily: -- Sort search results by rating, distance, business name and category -- View search results within a defined radius -- Filter results by related categories and nearby cities -- Sort by star ratings and read user reviews -- Access recent searches, which are now automatically saved for easy reference.

Local.com is a Top 100 website attracting approximately 10 million visitors each month seeking information on local businesses, products, services, people and jobs. Powered by the company's patent-pending Keyword DNA and local web indexing technologies, Local.com's goal is to provide users with targeted, relevant local search results, including special offers from local businesses, user reviews, local businesses' website links, maps, driving directions and more. Businesses can advertise on Local.com with subscription, pay-per-click, banner and pay-per-call ad products.
