Once your site is indexed, you then must figure out how to get your site ranking. Links are the most important factor in website ranking but there are hundreds of parts to the equation. I recommend visiting online forums to learn about how to get your site’s ranking higher.

Loved the interview and totally agree with the top 3 choices: Yelp, 4sq, & Groupon are def in my sights. The issues I see with all of these? There is a big group of Yelp haters, because there were a lot of people bullied and what was likened to 'extortion' by yelp (see http://smallbiztrends.com/2010/04/yelp-answers-…) As for foursquare, they are still growing up, and working around the clock, but still only have time right now to offer big industry players multi-store special options. The little local guys have to wait to be approved, and on my end, it has proven to take AWHILE (good thing starbucks and carrabas are around right?) As for groupon, it is great for massive, yet short term, interest. There will be a large influx of customers when the coupon is released, but these are only daily deals, once campaign is over, it's over.

All in all I'm excited about all the new local attention and look forward to future businesses that will cater to the market! Thanks Mat and Elise!
