_Wow, local search on google has sure gotten good. On “A9”:http://a9.com/bicycle%20shop%20san%20diego gets you the usual hash. You get a pseudo directory that is clearly SEOed but useless.
On the other hand with “google”:http://www.google.com/search?q=san+diego+bicycle+shop&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official, even though a9 buys from them, the query is much more useful. First, they have a structure local query that is much more accuragte. Gives you the top 10 shops and also addresses and phone numbers. The query results are better too. You go get a yellow pages, but Trek comes out muih closer to the top.
Net, net, it yields two bicycle stores in Escondido, with Google Maps doing a great job on both. The surprise is that the new Yahoo maps beta is simply awesome. Same idea, but much better. See below the difference between “Google Maps”:http://www.google.com/maps?hl=en&lr=&q=bicycle+shop&near=Escondido,+CA&radius=0.0&cid=33119167,-117085556,6573418693905043942&iwstate1=form:to and “Yahoo Beta”:http://maps.yahoo.com/beta/index.php#maxp=location&q2=316%2520W%2520Mission%2520Escondido%252CCA&q1=Escondido%252C%2520CA%252C%252092029&trf=0&lon=-117.095375061035&lat=33.0975817510435&mag=6
By the way the two are a Performance Bicycle shop with a $150 24″ kids bike Kids Bicycles @ Performance Bicycle
And there is a local bike shop called Hidden Valley Bike Shop as well.
