All local listings are
free.....
Any business, organization or other entity located* in the Florida
Keys is eligible for a free listing. These listings provide the backbone of our
service. Our viewers are just like you, they want all the information available,
not just a few paid listings-if there are 10 Italian restaurants in
town, we list all 10, not the one or two that paid us to appear on this web.
Just select the page you would like to appear on, use the add/edit
e-mail link on the link bar and submit your listing:
Name
(as you want it to appear)
Address
(not required if you don't want it in)
Phone Number (yes, we will
put in additional 800 numbers, free)
If we don't have a readily identifiable category to put you in,
we'll make one. If you have multiple businesses, such as a marina, bar,
restaurant and hotel, we will list them all in their respective
categories. We do take issue with listing you in every conceivable category such
as an American style restaurant that may have a few ethnic items on the menu and
want to be featured on those specialty pages as well, in cases such as this we
will put your listing just about anywhere you want, but we will charge you a fee
of $50 per listing.
Yes, we will give you a FREE LINK by bolding
your listing and hyperlinking it, FREE. You must reciprocate with a link we give
you to install on your site. It is advantageous for you to have a special links
or resources section in your site. Relevant links not only give you a few extra
visitors, but the search engines may give you better rankings if you have
relevant inbound links. For more about free links and our paid banners,

Small Print (rules)
*
The only real rule here is that you have to have a physical location for the
area you are in, for example; you may be an electrician and service the
whole Keys but your office is in Islamorada. We will list you for the
upper Keys area, but will charge you to list in other areas. We are not hard
to get along with, if you took the time and trouble to get a local phone number
for Key West we will also list you in Key West at no charge.
For companies located "off the rock" but do business here (a car
dealership in Miami would be an example); we charge a flat, on-time minimum $50/yr
fee for any company not located physically in the Keys. Then, all the other
standard rates apply (banner ads, linking your URL, etc).
Keep in mind, this web is an excellent place to list your web site. Most of
our pages come up as the number one result on any search string with the
keywords " florida keys + any local topic" in it, not to mention residents who
home page our site and use it as an Internet portal. Obviously, not every web
site can be ranked number one on the search engine results, but you will notice,
we usually are - it's what we do. With over 600 local pages, we rank number one
on over 90% of them and are working real hard to get the number one spot on the
rest. Our size and interlinking pages help here for our rankings with these
search engines.
The buying public doesn't look at this site for fun (reading the
phone book is fun?), they are looking for information to help make a buying decision - and
computer users on-line have the buying power to afford a computer and pay a
monthly access fee - these are your kind of folks! |
