Yellow Pages now use their own data with Google base maps for users to locate businesses in the local area.

"In the online and mobile world, mapping services from Microsoft and Google have in fact trained Yellow Pages users and advertisers on how to immediately benefit from mapping services on websites and mobile portals"

The local search company announced today it has added location based mapping to both its YellowPages.com.eg and Mobile Yellow Pages websites.

'In our business, businesses never cease opening, closing and relocating; we now have a dedicated team working full time on this project. It is a never ending process'
