In summary, clickfind is more than just a directory. It also has some features of search engines and is optimised for SEO, reflecting the changing way people look for information and buy online. We think of it as an online marketing platform for Aussie businesses.

It’s a great place to list your business online to give it better search engine optimisiation, and it has the ability to list all your business services and products online, to double up your listings in search engines.

I would highly recommend adding your business to this directory, my only complaint is the fact that is it charging $19.95 even for websites which don’t use all the features, such as listing all products and services, perhaps a basic plan with a once off registration fee might be more appropriate.

Differences from other directories include:

  • Most directories just have business contact info and a brief overview of each business. clickfind can display info on up to 500 products and services for each business. This means businesses can promote their offerings much more widely, and customers can find what they need without first having to know what sort of business provides it.

  • A business owner can use their clickfind listing as their website if they want to. They can even have their own URL, email and Google maps listing

  • Product and service listings can link through to any page on the businesses’ website. Most directories just provide one link to the website home page. clickfind listings can also act as a direct route through to BUY products/services, if listing details are linked to the businesses’ website via an affiliate scheme.

  • clickfind verifies all listings to ensure the business has a valid ABN registration. This means clickfind results will always be from genuine Aussie businesses.

  • Listings are optimised for SEO performance, so users searching on Google will often find clickfind results (sometimes listed above results from the businesses’ own website). clickfind considers the whole process, rather than building a self-contained world like Sensis does with Yellow Pages.

  • Clickfind doesn’t carry advertising, or charge more to get results appearing at the top of the list. All results are based on relevance of keywords (and location/distance if specified). Most online directories serve less relevant nationwide results before more relevant local ones.

  • Clickfind provides other useful tools, like the ability to check your website rankings, manage enquiries, create shortlists, and will be adding other features to assist businesses with online marketing.
