More than 50 percent of the more than 20 million small businesses in the U.S. do not yet have a website. Now, it just got easier for them to quickly and easily establish an online presence. Yahoo! is offering free websites for small businesses. The new service provides a simple interface and template that allows them to create a site in minutes. Rich Riley, Vice President and General Manager of Yahoo! Small Business:
�This new feature is for every small business and entrepreneur in America that doesn�t yet have a web site and wants to take that first step in bringing their business online. As more people come to rely on the internet to find local products and services in their neighborhood, having a website will become even more important to reaching customers and achieving business success.�
The new websites are automatically integrated into Yahoo! Local, extending businesses� reach to consumers who use search engines to find information about local products and services. For more information, go to local-dot-yahoo-dot-com-slash-freesite.
