Posting Guidelines

1Accuracy & transparency

• Profiles, listings and posts must accurately represent your business, products and services.
• Use your real business name. Don't stuff your name with keywords, categories, city names or phone numbers.
• Choose the category that truly fits your business — don't use another business type's category to gain visibility.
• Misleading, exaggerated or false claims are not allowed. If you use phrases like “#1 in the city” or “guaranteed results,” you must be able to back them up.
• Use real photos and videos of your business, team, work or products — not unrelated stock imagery.
• Keep your hours, prices, phone number and address up to date.

• Gambling or betting of any kind.
• Counterfeit or replica goods, and scams or fraud.

4Quality standards

• Use clear, readable text with proper spelling and grammar.
• Avoid ALL CAPS, excessive emojis, repeated punctuation and keyword stuffing.

5Prohibited business practices

• Deceptive or manipulative behavior, including impersonation or misrepresenting who you are.
• Collecting personal data without consent, such as hidden forms or tracking scripts.

• Creating multiple accounts or duplicate listings for the same business location.
• Selling, renting or transferring profiles to unrelated parties.

6Links & landing pages

• Links must work, load properly on all devices, and match what your listing or post describes.
• No malware, pop-ups, automatic downloads or forced redirects.
• No “doorway” pages or fake gateways that send visitors somewhere else.
