Search Tips

1. Locate the search box found in the middle of the page or on top of the results page.
2. Click on Business tab.
3. In the Business field, enter the name of the business you're trying to find or a category name.
4. Enter the city, state and/or zip code in the Location field.
5. Click the search button to initiate the search or hit the Enter button on your keyboard.

TIP: Enter only part of the business name or category to avoid misspelling the name.

• Avoid being too specific, and instead search a more general term. (e.g., Target versus Target Pharmacy or School versus High School)
• Enter fewer characters on the business name or category (e.g., Gugg versus Guggenheim)
• Remove the zip code or city.

• Use a more specific search term. (e.g., Walmart Pharmacy versus Walmart or Restaurants Pizza versus Restaurants).
• Add the city, state and/or zip code in the Location field rather than just searching a state. (e.g., Orlando, FL versus FL).
• Narrow down search results by filtering by category or location using the filters on the left side of the results page.
• Click "Search By Street" to reveal the street address field, then add a specific street address (e.g., Middleton Ave) to narrow results to that street.

TIP: Results are displayed with numbered markers on an interactive map on the right side, making it easy to see the location of each listing.

After performing a search, you can narrow down your results using the filter options displayed on the left side of the results page:

• Category Filter: Shows the top categories matching your search criteria. The number of listings per category is shown in parentheses (e.g., Restaurants Pizza (32)). Click on a category to filter results to only that category.
• State Filter: Shows states where matching listings are found. Click on a state to see only results from that state.
• City Filter: After selecting a state, cities within that state will appear. Click on a city to further narrow your results.
• Clear Filters: Click the × button next to any active filter in the breadcrumb area above the results to remove that filter and expand your search again.

TIP: Filters work hierarchically - select a state first to see cities within that state, or select a category to see results only in that category.

• The system automatically expands the search to include nicknames, first initial as well as expanding to surrounding areas of the originating city entered.

TIP 1: Entering more information (full last name and first name, street address, and city, state and zip code) in Search fields will result in fewer listings returned.

TIP 2: Entering less information (last name and state) in the Search fields will result in more listings returned.

• Remove the zip code or city on the location and search only the state (e.g., GA versus Atlanta, GA).
• Remove the first name or search only on the first initial of the name (e.g., J versus Jack).
• Enter fewer characters on the last name (e.g., John versus Johnson).

• Add the First Name to the first name field, instead of just searching by last name.
• Add the city and/or zip code to the Location field.
• Click "Search By Street" to reveal the street address field, then add a specific street address to narrow results.
• Use the State and City filters on the left side of the results page to narrow down by location.

TIP: Person search results are displayed with numbered markers on an interactive map, showing the location of each listing.

Search results for Business, Person, Reverse, and Zip Code searches include an interactive Google Map on the right side of the page:

• Numbered Markers: Each result is marked on the map with a number (1-12) that corresponds to the result number in the list.
• Click Markers: Click on any marker to see detailed information about that listing, including name, phone number, address, and category.
• Auto-Zoom: The map automatically adjusts to show all results. For single results, it zooms to an appropriate street-level view.
