Q. Can I withhold my address or telephone number
details from my listing?
Yes.
Unlike other directories, our listings are designed to
suit all types of business.
Businesses may have premises and websites, only
premises or only websites. Other businesses are purely
website resources.
Your listing can include or withhold the necessary
information to suit your business style.
However, to preserve the integrity and usefulness of the
directory, we review every website to ensure that it
meets our guidelines.
Q. What are your entry guidelines? Our guidelines are to ensure a high quality UK
business directory:
UK Businesses only.
English language sites only.
No adult or gambling sites.
No sites containing offensive language or material.
No sites with holding pages or under construction.
No gateway, divert or pure links sites.
Q. What if I cannot find suitable categories in which to place my
business?
Do not worry, one of the many advantages of our
directory is that we can create new categories.
Other
directory providers do not usually offer this,
having just a few, fixed, broad, categories for
ease of management.
We will not let your business become lost amongst so
many others in this way.
While completing your listing entry you can select from
existing or suggest new categories.
Q. Can I have my own page within WebPointer?
All listings have a dedicated page which is a bit like having
a second mini website for your business.
This carefully designed
page can be indexed by external search engines just like
your own website and be found in their results in the
same way.
Q. How do I change my listing details?
You can
contact us anytime with changes to your
listing.
We will check for correct formatting, typing errors, etc
and apply changes very quickly.
Q. How else does being listed in WebPointer help me?
As well as being found both from visitors to our
directory and our pages appearing in external search
engine results, our links to your website from relevant
pages in our directory,
increase it's search engine positioning by the process
of Link Popularity.
Link Popularity is a now
well known method by which Internet search engines
such as Google, Yahoo and MSN, judge the importance of websites.
In its' simplest description, link popularity means that
the more sites that link to your site, the more
important your site will be regarded by search engines
and they will therefore rank it more highly.
The more pages and the more relevant those pages
are that link to your site, the better.
That is why we place the links to your website on
multiple category pages that have relevance to your
website's subject.
Q. Can I add my
business if I am outside of the UK?
WebPointer is currently only available to UK based
businesses.
Q. What if I wish to cancel my listing in WebPointer? Contact Us with the request and after verifying that you
are cancelling on behalf of the listed company, we will
remove your listing.
