Although you can not search infoUSA directly, it is one of the most important listings a business can obtain. Established businesses that buy yellow page advertising or are listed in business directories will probably already be listed. It does not hurt to submit your listing to be sure they have current, accurate data. Their system will display a link to your current data, if any, and you can expand or correct it using this process.
The infoUSA database powers 85% of online directories including:
- Google Local Search
- Yahoo! Yellow Pages
- Microsoft’s MSN Local Search and Windows Live Local Search
- AOL brands including Compuserve, Netscape and Mapquest
- infoSpace
- 90% of in-car navigation
They also sell the infoUSA database products directly to businesses and for incorporation into computer programs and online services. Simply go to Add or Change Your infoUSA Business Listing and follow the process. Here are the screen captures of the entire process as of the day this post was written.

Good article. We have recently launched a new Express InfoUSA update service to make it easy for businesses to add, edit or enhance their business records within the infogroup (formerly infoUSA) business database. We have also added bulk file upload and api capabilities for businesses with multiple records/locations.
