By Deepika Mala, TMCnet Contributor


Free, personalized directory assistance and category search services in the United States have been introduced by 1-800-Justdial (News - Alert).

To obtain business listings and conduct category searches, consumers can now dial 1-800-Justdial from anywhere in the country.

'Increasingly, search is shifting to mobile,' said Justdial Founder and CEO V S S Mani. 'Justdial is a free one-call solution for any local search need consumers can think of. Callers get access to live, courteous and personalized assistance, enabling them to find exactly what they need in less than one minute. It also really eliminates the need for the billions of calls U.S. consumers make each year to paid directory assistance.'


Justdial operators are available 24 hours a day and offer one ring pickup service. The users, through this are enabled to speak to a live person and obtain fast local search results for nearby restaurants, movies, events, florists, plumbers, dentists, car rentals, or almost any other product or service under the sun.

More than simple local business search is offered by Justdial. It helps people to access information quickly and easily at home, at work, or on-the-go to receive information like listings and local recommendations, or even nearby hotels in a certain price range.

To reach a live operator that picks up within one ring and state what listing or category of product or service they are looking for by neighborhood, zip code or even intersection, callers simply dial 1-800-Justdial.

Callers receive Justdial relevant listings via e-mail or text message. Justdial also connects callers to the listing of their choice, all free of charge.

For maximum speed and personalization when using Justdial and to enable the operator to recognize the user and provide recommendations and listings near their home, work, or any other registered address or location, the users can register their phone number and address.

In related news, InfoGin (News - Alert), a market leader in providing telco-grade mobile browsing solutions, has announce that Eniro, the premier search company in the Nordic media market has selected InfoGin's Content Adaptation technology to power Eniro's mobile directory and search services.
