It's really annoying - you have to dig around, and many business do not have a web presence at all so unless you can find something local with ads, you find nothing.

Some tricks I've used in the past include local church bulletins (most parishes have some sort of a website and a weekly bulletin with advertising on the back), or local sport team sponsors, or local bars.

For towing, you can also try calling a local dealership or auto repair.

Or their only web presence at all is a facebook page. I don't have a facebook account so this used to be mildly annoying but lately I've noticed it won't let me see at the page at all. I click the link to visit the business's "website" and I'm greeted with a full-page prompt to sign in to facebook.
