Are you a small business without a Web site? Well thanks to the folks at Yahoo!, you now have no excuse not to have a Web site out there for your clients or visitors to check out.

WebHosting.Info is reporting that Yahoo! announced a new feature on Yahoo! Local where small businesses can now get quick and easy to build Web sites for free.

According to the company, this new service will enable small businesses to create a website by using a simple interface and predesigned templates. These new websites are automatically integrated into Yahoo! Local, extending businesses’ reach to consumers who use search engines for local products and services. The free service also provides new merchant offerings in Yahoo! Local, including free Basic Listings and Enhanced Listings.

“By bringing together our leadership in essential small business services, our vast consumer reach, and our local and search expertise, Yahoo! is uniquely able to help small businesses get started and be successful online. This new service complements our industry leading suite of online services that help small businesses get online, sell online and market online,” said Rich Riley, Vice President and General Manager, Yahoo! Small Business.

It only makes sense that Yahoo! might start offering this type of service to help build the relevancy of their new Yahoo! Local searches. The more information a location has, the more helpful it is to any searchers out there looking for local businesses.
