Hi everyone! I came across SantaBarbaraYP and wasn't sure how useful it was. From what I understand, it's a local search engine for Santa Barbara County that helps you find local businesses and services. Have any of you used it before? I need to find a few businesses that do appliance repair and other small services, but I don't want to waste time searching through Google. Is this really helpful in finding something useful and local? And what are your overall impressions of it?

Hi everyone! Interesting topic. I also used SantaBarbaraYP not long ago when I was looking for local stores to buy household goods, and, frankly, I was satisfied. It is especially nice that you can find small businesses here that just don’t always get into the big search engines. Sometimes it is even nice to find that in your area you can support small family businesses that do cool things. Although it is still sometimes better to use more universal services to find larger companies, but for local tasks the site is quite convenient.
Yes, I have used SantaBarbaraYP as a Local Business Directory, and it is quite a convenient tool, especially if you want to find something specifically in Santa Barbara. For me, this service is not just a search engine, but a whole local directory of businesses that works much more accurately and faster than the same search engines like Google. Often, when you search for something in Google, you get a bunch of unnecessary links - stores from neighboring cities, completely foreign regions or large chains, but on SantaBarbaraYP you immediately get to those who actually work in your area. For example, if I need to find a company that repairs household appliances or minor home repairs, I know that I will only see those companies that work within Santa Barbara. What I like is that the businesses are presented here in quite detail. You see not only the name, but also the address, phone number, and also reviews from people who also live in the area. This is an important point, because local people can give more accurate recommendations and share their real experience. I always try to choose businesses that have already been checked by someone from my circle, and with this service it is easier to do, because you know for sure that these reviews are left by local residents, and not someone from another city.
