"Whether it’s driving new customers to our advertisers from

value," said Jay Herratti, CEO of Citysearch. "By combining the
distribution power of CityGrid with OrangeSoda’s platform, every small
business in America now has access to a one-stop local advertising

prominently in their organic search results and this has given small
businesses another way to get featured in the search engine results real
estate," said Jay Bean, CEO of OrangeSoda. "For over 15 years,
Citysearch has helped small businesses gain exposure on other websites,
