‘There Is No True Leader in Local Search’?

June 18, 2007

comScore Reports Growth in Internet Yellow Pages Searches | www.comscore.com

I had an email exchange with comScore this morning based on yesterday’s press release. I was told that yesterday’s numbers are only “IYP” and not “Local Search” (see the July, 2006 data).

Online Sales Lose Steam | www.nytimes.com

Here’s a story from Bob Tedeschi in today’s NY Times that shows e-commerce growth is slowing. This slowing should not be confused with the influence of the Internet on consumer purchase behavior, which is growing and will continue to grow (including in mobile). What we’re talking about here is the “location” of the transaction, which overwhelmingly will be in a local store today and in the future.
