Kudzu is a local business social networking site where businesses can create a free listing that includes key contact information, a website link, listing of services, hours of operation and special offers.

Similar to Merchant Circle , listed businesses can network with each and Kudzu visitors can leave business reviews.  Businesses can be searched by location (example: Dallas, TX) or keyword.

Enhanced listings ($750/yr) provide more bells and whistles for your listing – pictures, company logo, detailed marketing descriptions, activity reports and higher placement in search results.   Preferred listings come in at $2000 per year and maximize Kudzu exposure with highest rankings and enhanced marketing tools, such as video.   As with any paid advertising, be sure and evaluate the cost/benefit before moving forward.

Kudzu was launched in 2005 and is owned by Cox Enterprises.   Register and learn more about getting started from the Kudzu BizSuccess section, which includes a getting started demo.  And, as always, be sure and invite Dallas Marketing to join your Kudzu network.
