Business-User Advantages
- Business Detail pages are one-page websites for businesses. Businesses create their own pages and edit them at any time through easy, intuitive forms. Content includes multiple images, business hours, main and secondary text content, business logo, and map link.
- Both businesses and restaurants have the option to incorporate an easy to remember URL. The URL is simply the directory URL with the Users business name: www.yourwebsite.com/businessname.
- Restaurant Menus are easily created through a simple form. The User can include ‘Menu Section Name’, Menu Section Description’, add/edit items and description, add/edit pricing category (small, medium, large, regular, etc.), and price amount. There is no limit to items or sections.
- Business and Restaurants that take advantage of the Menu Page or Business Detail page also receive website and email button links, plus priority listing results to make their business stand out in the directory.
- Advertisements are submitted automatically into a rotation cycle with other submitted advertisements. Every refresh of the screen, or page change, or new viewer will see the rotation change so all ads have the same amount of views.
- Column advertisements are placed in the left hand side column of every page. There is a limit of three (3) advertisements deep, per column, so all ads are near the top. Upon a page-refresh or page-change, all advertisements rotate, allowing all ads the same top visibility.
- All column ads that businesses create are also linked to any URL that they designate in the creation form.
- As a business creates a new Detail Page, they will also choose which category best fits their service. If no categories are close enough to represent them, they have the option of suggesting a new category. This is the same for Restaurants.
- All paid ad, event, and page listings can include an image(s).
