How we make money
Money never changes the order or inclusion of free listings, search results or organic results. Paying only buys clearly labeled extra spots.
Business plans
Businesses can pay a monthly plan for extra tools and more places to appear. Plans are listed on one public pricing page, the same for every business of the same size. Free listings stay free.
Featured and Sponsored placements
Paid placements always carry a "Featured" or "Sponsored" label and sit in their own marked spots. They never look like a review, a ranking or our own writing.
Sponsorships
A local business may sponsor a city page, the weekly events guide or a category roundup. Those spots say "Presented by" with the sponsor's name. One sponsor per spot at a time.
Affiliate links
Some links to tools or travel partners are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Every affiliate link is labeled right next to it. We never put affiliate links inside a business's own record facts.
Advertising
We may later show clearly labeled ads on city guides, roundups and articles. We never show ads on business record pages, account pages, government or civic information, or pages for children. No ad network is in use today.
Your data
We do not sell personal data or send it to advertising or affiliate partners. No third-party ad or affiliate trackers run on our sites today.
