The enhanced National Business Directory 2022 contains verified contact details for citizens seeking a truly local search mechanism especially for industry verticals such as hardware, construction, electrical, electronics, etc. Listing in the Business Directory 2022 enables vendors, particularly Business to Business (B2B) and MSMBs entities, to have access to Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
