Irvine-based local.com is acquiring 14,000 local business advertisers from Las Vegas-based LiveDeal Inc. for up to $3.1 million in cash.

The recent purchase brings the company's total number of small business customers to 30,000. Local.com is also much closer to its goal of 50,000 by the end of 2009.

The customers will pay $33 per month for a Local Promote listing on local.com and other select sites. Local Promote is the company's entry-level advertising product designed for businesses that want to participate in local online advertising. The program offers businesses premium placement at the top of targeted search results in specific categories and geographic regions. Customers can also build their own branded Web pages.
