Much like other 3rd party directories, Adlink categorizes local businesses like superpages and other directories. Their difference is using geo-tagging - actually it is just trying to mimic Google Local. But like all 3rd party directories, they "get in the way." Rather than using numerous directories to list your website, putting effort in your own SEO efforts will pay off in the long run. Chances are people will search for your keywords on Google rather than going to the directory site first. If your keywords lead your listing on a directory site, understand that it is really a barrier because it adds an extra click and will also bring your competitor's name up as well - because it is a directory site first and foremost.
