I advertise on there. they base their prices on how popular the search is..
Check what areas they will actually put you down in. Don't do yellow pages it's a waste of time. Do yell.com but you need to do a paid for advert either medium or heavy weight to get near the top of the listings. |

When my Yellow Page drops through the letter box it goes straight into the recycling bin. It is a complete waste of paper as you can never find what you want. The BT commercial section has better indexing and you can usually find what you are looking for.

No, I considered it when I started my business and they were very pushy however I decided not too in the end.
My brother used to have a big ad in the yellow pages and did get a lot of work through it back in the day however as Google got more popular yellow pages seems to have taken a knock. A decent website with good SEO will do a lot more for your business then the yellow pages will.......but owning an IT consultancy I suppose I have to say that!
