The problem

Generic guides leave you at the mercy of other people's traffic

  • Third-party marketplaces charge a commission on every lead and keep your advertiser's data — you have no relationship with the customer.
  • No local SEO of your own: the company shows up on Google inside someone else's domain, never yours.
  • Rigid catalog, no plans, no coupons and no app — the merchant doesn't see the value to pay for a subscription.
  • No map or neighborhood search: the user can't find the service and leaves.
  • No moderation and anti-fraud: fake reviews destroy the directory's credibility.
  • Outsourced support without SLA — during a launch campaign, you're left stranded.

Frequently asked questions

Get your questions answered

What is a Business Directory and how does it generate revenue?

A business directory (or city guide) is a portal where companies register, display services and receive customer reviews. You earn with subscription plans, paid highlights, coupons, Google Adsense, qualified leads and a services Marketplace. It's a recurring asset that grows by itself with UGC.

Can I charge a subscription to the listed businesses?

Yes. We have Free, Essential, Premium and Top-of-page plans with automatic renewal via PIX, card or bank slip. The advertiser dashboard shows real-time conversion and the system charges on its own.

Does the system have search by neighborhood, category and map?

Yes. Fuzzy search by name/category, neighborhood/region filter, user geolocation, interactive map and reach radius (Google Maps or Mapbox). Every company has an SEO-friendly URL and its own page for local SEO.

Can companies manage their own listing?

Yes, a self-service advertiser dashboard: edit photos, hours, social media, product catalog, reply to reviews and publish coupons. You only approve or reject in moderation.

Does it work for multiple cities (multi-city / franchising)?

Yes, multi-city and multi-tenant architecture: each city with a subdomain or folder (`/sp/sao-bernardo`), same infrastructure, isolated data and regional management per franchisee.

Is it possible to sell coupons and offers inside the directory?

Yes. An integrated coupons and offers module, with QR Code for in-store use, optional cashback and redemption tracking — it turns the directory into a conversion machine.

Does the directory appear on Google (local SEO)?

Yes. Every company becomes an indexable landing page with Schema.org (`LocalBusiness`, `AggregateRating`), automatic sitemap, Open Graph and review structured data — it ranks for 'service + city'.

Can I have an iOS and Android app for the directory?

Yes, we deliver an installable PWA + native iOS/Android app with your brand, push notifications for nearby promotions and user favorites.

How do I prevent fake listings and fake reviews?

Manual/automatic moderation, phone/e-mail verification, CAPTCHA, spam detection, user flagging and blocking of multiple accounts per device.

Can I integrate with WhatsApp and social media?

Yes. Click-to-WhatsApp button straight from the company, social sharing, conversion pixel and retargeting by category.

What is the delivery time?

15 to 30 days for the white-label version ready with your brand, categories and first cities. Module expansion in 2-week sprints.

Do you deliver the visual identity and launch SEO?

Yes. We create the brand, category landing pages, local content (cities/segments) and advertiser acquisition strategy so the directory takes off fast.
