Shop YubaSutter Business Directory Frequently Asked Questions:

 

What is the difference between a FULL listing and a BASIC

 

A company listing is FREE and can be edited at any time. Change your business hours for the Summer? Get a different or additional phone number? Move to a different location? Not a problem with a Shop YubaSutter Business Directory listing.

What is the Alphabetical Listing Preference (Display Name)?

The directory uses the information in this field to alphabetically list a company. For example, this allows a company that uses a person's name to be listed alphabetically by their last name, yet have their full name displayed on the web site. It also allows companies with names starting with "The" to be listed under a letter other than "T". If you leave the field blank, the information in the Company Name field will be used by default. Listings that abuse this feature by adding extra A's to their names may be removed from the directory.

 

What should I put in the Address2 field?

Our company uses a P.O. Box. Which field should I put that information into?

The directory uses the information in the Address1 field to automatically generate the Map link to your location. If your company uses a P.O. Box, your map link will not work correctly. Put your physical location in the Address1 field and your P.O. Box in the Address2 field. The Address2 field can also be used for information like Suite number or information like "Corner of Bridge & Park".

 

What if I don't have a website?

How should I enter my website URL into the Website field?

 

If you don't have a website, we would be happy to create one for you. Contact us at sales@yubasutter.com. We have options starting as low as $100.

 

If you do have a site, be sure to enter the website address (URL) in the format shown in the example - www.yoursite.com. Failure to do so will like cause the link in your listing to be disabled.

 

Explain the Business Categories to me.

Why don't I see my category?

How can I get my category added?

What's the difference between the Primary Business Categories available for a FREE listing and the Additional or Secondary Categories available with a paid FULL listing?

What are the "Keywords" associated with my listing and how did they get there?

We have divided the directory into approximately 20 Primary Categories. These "Master" categories allow for a more stream-lined approach to searching for a company listing. Some categories are very large, like "Service Businesses" or "Wholesale and Manufacturing", and others are relatively small, like "Education & Instruction". As we continually improve the directory, we may adjust the groupings. If you have any recommendations, let us know. All listings, including FREE ones, have Keywords added to their listings to enhance their appearance in the search results. Free listings have ONLY the keywords associated with their Primary Category. Paid listings have keywords added in two ways:

     1. By selecting additional, secondary categories to their listing.

     2. By add words directly to the "Keyword" field on the Edit Listing form.

What should I put in the "Area Served" field?

List the cities or counties that your company services.

 

What are SIC and NAICS codes and how are they used?

These codes are standard industry codes created and used by the US government to classify businesses. If you know your code(s), go ahead and enter it in the field provided. This will be used in future enhancements of the business directory

 

When adding an image for my company, what is the "Default" image?

While you can upload several graphics for your listing, ONLY ONE graphic will be displayed in the directory. The image chosen as the DEFAULT will be the image displayed.

 

When adding an image for my company, what is the "ALT" image tag?

 

This text is used by Web browsers to display text during image downloads for users who have graphics turned off, and for users who rely on screen-reading software to convert graphics on the screen to spoken words. Most web browsers also display this text when the mouse cursor is placed over the image. You can view an example of this by placing your mouse cursor over this image:

You should see this text. If you don't, you may be using an older browser.

 

I have some questions about the payment we made for a FULL listing.
