Areaconnect.com is a search directory site that conglomerates multiple yellow pages, white pages, relevant web sites, statistics, local weather, local maps, zip code search, web search, and various directories into a single, clean interface. Areaconnect.com facilitates refined and tailored searches by city, county, and other topics, and you do not need to register to utilize the site. On the homepage there is a large map of the US. You can click on a given state and are directed toward a page that helps you refine your search to city-wide scans for businesses or people. Information, tailored to each city or state, supplements each page, and includes current state weather, the state capital, state bird, total area of the state, and a link to the state’s official website. On the city-wide search page, you can read about the lottery and the stock market, and suggested search terms are provided, which may be useful.

There is a “reverse search” tool which is useful as well: it allows you to locate a business or person using your phone number. Email search is also offered as an option. You can enter a city and areaconnect.com will retrieve movie theatres, restaurants, hotels, and other useful institutions, categorized by zip code, city, state, area code, county, latitude, and longitude. All locations appear on a map with accompanying directions, which can be zoomed in and out and is well-fleshed out with details. The site is set up in an easy-to-navigate, clean way. Youngish, slightly less affluent adults enjoy this site. Slightly more women than men visit areaconnect.com, and most visitors have no college education or children.
