PHOENIX - June 6, 2026 - AZ Charged, a curated directory of hand-selected Arizona businesses, has launched a redesigned website built to help local companies get found in both traditional local search and AI-driven results. The new site, designed by Scottsdale-based agency Lifted Websites, organizes more than 100 service categories across Phoenix, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Mesa, Chandler, Tempe and Tucson.
The redesign restructures the directory around how Arizonans search today — increasingly through AI assistants and search engines' AI-generated summaries rather than long pages of links. Every business on AZ Charged is hand-reviewed for quality, reputation and verified local presence before it is published, and the directory does not sell ranking placement. That curation is the point: clean, Arizona-only listings give both residents and AI search tools a more reliable local source to pull from than national aggregators that scrape listings in bulk.
For local businesses, the appeal is visibility. A listing on a focused, well-structured Arizona directory is a consistent citation that supports local SEO and gives AI search systems a vetted reference for who actually serves a given city. AZ Charged covers the greater Phoenix metro first and extends statewide to Tucson, Flagstaff, Prescott, Sedona and beyond.
"Arizonans deserve a local source that knows the difference between a real Gilbert plumber and a national listing scraped off a map," said TJ, owner of AZ Charged. "We rebuilt the site so the businesses we've vetted show up where people are looking now — including AI search — not just where they looked five years ago."
"AZ Charged had the right idea before most directories caught up, so we designed the new site to be readable by people and by AI search alike," said TJ, CEO of Lifted Websites.
Arizona business owners can request consideration for a listing through the AZ Charged contact page; listings start at $200 per month. Residents can browse vetted local experts by category and city at azcharged.com.
