Add Your Church to Google Maps

Found this neat tip/idea via Chruch Communications Pro (via the MMM Jaiku channel)

Google Maps (Google's local directory) has recently started showing user reviews in it's business directory listings.

First, off if you haven't listed your business in Google Maps - go here now and do so. Even if your business is in the listing take the time to sign up for a free account and enhance your listing. You can add product photos, hours of business, forms of payment, product lines. Great stuff for local searchers.

The above is from a post at Duct Tape Marketing.

Besides making your church findable via a normal web browser, with Google's empahasis on mobile services, you can also text, browser, or voice-call via Google to find several services in your area, or in an area you are moving to/visiting.
