How it started
History
Kudzu.com initially served the market of Atlanta, and expanded to Arizona, San Diego, and Las Vegas in the fall of 2006. In the fall of 2007, Kudzu.com expanded nationally, offering business information and the ability for customers to rate and review businesses in all markets across the United States.
In August 2010, Kudzu.com partnered with HGTV, where HGTV's videos and content were added to Kudzu.com, and the ability to search Kudzu.com's listings was added to several HGTV websites. The partnership ended at the end of 2011.
Shortly thereafter, Kudzu became part of Cox Media Group under The Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper, and returned its focus to Atlanta. In 2013, Kudzu launched a Digital Solutions product line to help online businesses improve their SEO and optimize their web presence.
