VConnect has a huge database of local businesses and services in Nigeria with over 500,000 business listings.

The site was helpful to my brother when he was searching for the contact info of the Nigeria Turkish International College and Nigerian stock brokers . I use the website alot in searching for internet service providers in any new location I find myself as well as dry cleaning and laundry services .
For the sake of illustration, let me explain how to use VConnect.com to search the for list of hotels in and around Kaduna North, Nigeria.

The search field at the tops lets you easily select the state of your choice and the field adjacent to it lets you add the keywords for whatever it is you are looking for.
==> Once you select the state of your choice in the first field, you get the option to choose the LGA which you are planning to visit (see screen-grab below)
==> Select “ Kaduna North” as the LGA of choice and once the page refreshes, go ahead and type the keyword “ hotel ” in the second field.
==> Now before you hit the search button, the auto-suggest feature kicks into action and pops up a smartly segregated list of categories such as brands, products or services for the keyword you are searching for. For instance, below is what you get when you type the keyword “hotel”
==> Next, as soon as you hit the search button, you instantly get a list of hotels listed in Kaduna North. In this case I got 33 hotels listed under the Kaduna North area.
And the best part about these results – most of them are accompanied by user reviews which can very useful to pick and choose the hotel of your liking. Also, more importantly the reviews come from a credible source and not some random person.
