I find this especially timely because just last week, a client of mine found his business profile auto-listed in a wiki-type directory. The info contained language, however, that could have gotten the client sued. We were able to change it quickly, avoiding any potential nightmares. This wasn't a local listing per se, but that fact that it was discovered and corrected was extremely important, and this is another compelling reason why local search profiles (and all online profiles, for that matter) need to be monitored.

Anything that helps improve the process of submitting local search is welcomed by me. Also, great find with GetListed.org. Do you happen to know of any other sites like GetListed that focus on other local search properties like Local.com or Yellowpages.com? Kurt,
