Add your business to Spot’s New Look Directory

Is your business on our site?
Search for your business in our directory! Simply locate your business listing on www.spotredsea.com, choose the ‘Business Finder’ tab, then search for your business by name, or by using a key word and the refining options.

Listed?
If yes, great. We’ll tell how you can claim and optimise your listing in the next issue. If no, add it now and attract new clients...

What do I have to do?
Once you have registered / logged in, click the ‘Classifieds’ tab and choose ‘Add Classifieds / My Business’, and click on ‘+ add business’.

Complete the required fields, upload your logo, add any relevant images and provide comprehensive contact details. Then click ‘Save’!

Your business will now show in your list, just like your active Classified Ads. You can now change it, update it, or improve it whenever you like. It doesn’t expire.

If you have any questions, or want to claim your existing listing now, email us here.

Introducing Spot’s New Business Directory


So, what’s new about our online Business Finder? Well, we’ve listened to your feedback and based our improvements on your experiences online.

We have added functions to ‘search for’ and then ‘refine’ the listings. We’ve found it the most effective method of locating the listing you need. You can search in one of two fields by company name or ‘key word’ and you can refine your reach results by location and subcategory. You’ll be aided by our autosuggest function that will help you see the options tagged within the database.

We’ve improved the design of the results page and replaced the scrolling function with ‘pages’ that will be familiar from the new ‘Classifieds’ section. This makes it easier for you to navigate. Similarly, we’ve added sorting options (A-Z, Relevance and Popularity) and the ability to view 10, 30 or 50 results per page to aid viewing your results.

Our aim is ensure listings are easy to find, view and add, and that existing businesses are ‘claimed’ by business owners.
