Tour
Pages Jaunes has introduced a new branding scheme, a somewhat softening of their palette. They've culled out their local service Ville en Direct, essentially wrapping it commercial search.
Pages Jaunes does some different things with their results pages. The results are wrapped in the context of both a map and local information via Ville en Direct.
Pages Jaunes doesn't seem to have individual landing pages for their businesses. You can get a map view, directions, aerial views, photos and search nearby but no landing page. They use the listing information to set a 'context' to the current view along with a call to Find Nearby.
Pages Jaunes provides pretty extensive directions, with or without toll roads, walking, and by public transportation. In fact even when trying to get directions via public transportation there are options to minimize the number of transfers and amount of walking in the process.
Pages Jaunes has Find Nearby functionality pretty well integrated, being available at all time when looking at a particular address.
Pages Jaunes places city-level information directly within the context of commercial search.
Pages Jaune provides traffic information as well in Ville en Direct. It just doesn't use quite the same map.
Pages Jaunes offers satellite imagery for Ville en Direct as well as for individual business views.
Pages Jaunes was one of the first to provide street-level images for its listings. They have extended that to any address within Ville en Direct.
Pages Jaunes offers well-presented movie information as an explicit separate section.
Pages Jaunes provides event information with the ability to obtain tickets (in conjunction with third parties).
Pages Jaunes extends local commercial search to include the ability to search for real estate, automobiles, and motorcycles. Both consumers and businesses can post classifieds.
