Hi, I'm Mel Slabaugh.
I'm an entrepreneur from Shreve, Ohio, in Wayne County. I build tools that help business owners get found, get chosen and spend less time on marketing, so they can get back to what they do best.
BingBillboard grew out of my work helping local businesses show up in search.
I kept seeing the same thing: a business does the hard work of earning a referral, and then the customer searches its name and finds a competitor. That drove me nuts, so I built BingBillboard to fix it.
I keep things simple and honest. You'll always see your Billboard Score, you'll own every profile we build, and I'll never promise what the search engines decide.
P.S. If you take one thing from this page, make it this: tonight, search your own business name on Bing, the way a stranger would. Whatever you see is exactly what your next customer sees.
One owner. A few good tools.
BingBillboard is one of a few services I run for business owners:
- SubmitYourArticles: get known and cited by ai
- SearchBoxReferral: get suggested as people type
- StopLosingReferrals: keep every referral from slipping away
- BusinessOwnerAI: an AI-run show that knows your business and talks to your customers
- MelSlabaugh.com: everything mel is building
Stop renting out your own name.
It takes about a minute. We'll do the digging and send you the screenshots, free. Worst case, you learn something. Best case, you stop losing customers you already earned.
