Just go to each place listed look for list your business, or free listing or something similar and follow the instructions, it is usually very simple these are free listings, with the ability to upgrade later if you wish. I always ask every customer where they heard about me and keep a record of it so I can track what is working for me, this helps me determine if I want to upgrade or not.
(Looks like the links are not going to be hyperlinks, just copy and paste the links into your browser.)
Good Luck and much success to you!
