Finding Black Businesses Online

Believe it or not, I’ve spent a good portion of the last ten years searching for Black Businesses Online. I like convenience as much as the next shopper, but it’s almost impossible to shop conveniently when trying to support other black owned businesses. I’m sure you know what I mean. It’s ten times easier to simply go to your local Walmart or Target for just about everything, than it is to find local black products and black business owners to support.


Finding Black Businesses isn’t always easy, but it’s a challenge worth undertaking. Being a black entrepreneur, I feel it’s important to support other black businesses as much as I expect others to support me. Long story short, among the many things that I do online, I maintain the Search Urban Directory, which is in my opinion one of the biggest and most comprehensive online directories of black businesses and black websites.


I’m always impressed by the new and exciting minority owned businesses that are submitted to the Search Urban Directory on a weekly basis. Contrary to popular belief, we do have an ever growing number of black inventors and innovators creating products and services designed to make our lives better. If I can support them simply by maintaining this directory, I know that I’m making it a little easier and a little more convenient for other black consumers to commit to buying black online and in their local communities.

Work and Web Women

Are you working the web? Do you want to learn how? Work and Web Women is my new podcast Blog, but I like to think of it as a podClass series because I created it to teach other online entrepreneurs (men and women) how to improve their websites, find multiple streams of income online, work from home and do other things of that nature.

Being more of a typer than a talker, I initially intended to use this site primarily as an information library for women entrepreneurs, with eBooks and informational posts like those on the SistaSense blog. But after speaking with other women offline, and learning more about the wonderful world of podcasts, blog radio shows, and such... I decided it was time to get with the times and the latest technology by adding audio broadcasts to the growing listing of features on BBWO.

Every week I will talk about hot topics of interest to myself and my fellow online entrepreneurs.In addition to the featured series of PodClasses, Work and Web Women will include interviews and discussions with other women in business, updates and new features created for the Black Business Women Network, online resources for net entrepreneurs, original business eBooks by LHenry, howto posts and more.

Visit WorkandWebWomen.com today, and let me know what you think.

SEO and Search Urban: Black Directory

Search Urban: Black Directory
When it comes to SEO, one of the most common techniques for optimizing your site for search engines, is getting your site listed on other websites that:

  • Have Related Web Content
  • Generate Strong Web Traffic
  • Reach your target Audience
  • Have High Goolge Page Rank (a Page Rank of 4 or Higher
  • Provide Relevant Banner Exchanges or Ad Packages

The Search Urban Directory was created to do all these things and more, with the primary goal of promoting Black Websites while providing African American online viewers with access to the best, quality Black pages online and highlighting new, websites and information that is relevant to the Black Community at Large. From Black News and Commentary to Websites for Black Women and support for Black Business, Search Urban aims to spread the word about all that is Hot, Positive, Quality, Educational, Entertaining, and Innovative as far as Black Online Content.

The best part of the Search Urban Directory is that it is featured on several sites, so that site submitters get the most exposure possible. Search Urban Sites include:

Succesful Black Business Women

Successful Black Business Women

I recently created a listing of Successful Black Business Women to know. Having spoken to other female Entrepreneurs of Color who were interested in learning more about Sistas in Business for guidance and also for inspiration,I thought this would be a very useful list to create. The list is in no particular order and it contains Black Professional Women in a range of careers and varying degrees of success. From the biggest Icon and Idol,Oprah to new entrepreneurs and young entrepreneurs, the listing is meant to give my fellow Black Women and also Black Men in Business, a look at how much faith, hard work, and innovation really does pay off.
