My theory is in 5 years the YP costs will be 1/3 of what they are now for YP books only because most people will use the Internet or their phones to locate and choose carpet cleaning services making the books far less valuable. I can see it turning into a coupon book.
In advance of this understanding YP are currently attempting to sell premium web listening in their YP Internet directories. These premium listings are ridiculously over priced. Don't buy into their YP BS that you need to pay for premium web listings. You can still choose to be in their web free listings which that will have your web address and link there too.
Instead, pay Google for Google AdWords and it is cheaper and more effective.
Also paying for Google AdWords is even less expensive and can be arguably more effective than paying for website search engine optimization.

Talk to your website developer as this information is critical to making your website visible to potential customers.
Google AdWords
