Nextdoor is available on smartphones, laptops, desktop computers and even via SMS text message.  In addition, The app is considered to be a citation signal for local SEO.  Therefore, having a business listing on the app will help your local maps and search results.

When posting an ad or event to your group you can customize it with photo’s, videos and links.  Therefore, allowing users to get more information about what you are offering. This helps potential customers find out exactly who their neighbors are and what they have to offer. Nextdoor gives local business owners or potential customers the opportunity to connect on a more personal level rather than via Redes Sociales.
