Local Directory FAQ

How do I find a local service?

The Directory has a business search and category links. Search by a business name, service or address, or browse a category such as mechanics, removalists or pet services. Published profiles and official-contact cards provide the business details available for that service.

How can I add a business or community group?

Add a business or group opens a submission form after sign-in. It collects a category, name, description and public contact details. The same account works for Directory profiles and Marketplace posts. New profiles are held for review before publication.

How do I claim an existing profile?

On a public profile, Claim or manage listing opens the claim process. After signing in, explain your connection to the business or group. The request is reviewed before management access is assigned. Approved owners can find their profiles under My directory listings.

Can I correct a listing without claiming it?

Yes. Public business profiles have a Correct this listing form for phone, address, website, opening hours, category and closed-or-moved reports. A correction can include an explanation and an optional contact email. It is sent for review; it does not change the public profile immediately.

What happens when an owner edits a profile?

An owner can edit a profile from My directory listings. Sending the changes returns the profile to pending review and holds it from public view until it is approved again. This applies to contact details and descriptions as well as category changes.

What do the Directory badges mean?

Owner Managed means an account has approved management access. Supports Kalgoorlie.info refers to a checked public link back to this site. Verified Local Profile combines owner management and a checked linkback. These labels describe profile and link checks; the business supplies its current services, prices and booking terms.

Should I use the Directory or Marketplace?

The Directory holds longer-term contacts for businesses, community groups and useful local places. Marketplace is for short-term notices such as an item for sale, a wanted request or an available rental. A business profile can remain useful after an individual advertisement has finished.

Where do I arrange a booking or service?

The phone and website links lead to the listed business or organisation. Appointments, quotes and service arrangements are made with that operator. The Directory contact details and category descriptions help identify the relevant service; they do not show live appointment or stock availability.
