How listings work

The internet should help local.

We structure local information and level the playing field for being found.

One shared set of rules applies to Local Search, Local A–Z and Local Category on every participating surface.

Seven fairness principles

  1. Every business can be found. Claimed or unclaimed, free or paid, every real business appears in Local Search, Local A–Z and Local Category for its place.

  2. Same order for everyone. A–Z and category lists are alphabetical; nobody pays to move up inside them.

  3. Paid is always labelled. Featured/upgraded placement appears only in clearly marked "Featured" slots, never hides or removes a free listing.

  4. A free floor that never expires: name, category, address, hours, phone, website and claim — free, forever.

  5. Upgrades add reach, never basic visibility (action buttons, extra photos, featured slots).

  6. Sources are credited and anyone can report a problem.

  7. Owners see what's missing and how to fix it for free (visibility check).

The Local Internet — The Local Everything.
