Energy is not cheap and we want to make sure we leave the Earth in good shape for the next generation. After we make these kinds of changes to our business, we should make sure our customers know about our efforts in case they value that kind of commitment to green business practices. One place to do that is in a green business directory.

Besides just being accepted for having green business practices, it’s good to get incoming links to your business website. Each site that links to you is like a vote for your site and it helps you get more traffic as your website moves up in rankings and has more links pointing to it. Links from a green business directory will benefit your business because it’s another link and some people will only shop at businesses that have green business practices.

You want to get listed in a green business directory that has certain eco-friendly qualifications or green business criteria that you must meet. There are some of these directories out there that do not research your business but instead just hand out links without doing any kinds of checks – they don’t do their homework. While this may look good, people who care about these issues may do their research and find out that there were no qualifications.

One great green business website directory is YesWeAreGreen.com. Browse green businesses there and add your own business if you qualify.
