We send a six digit code to an email at your company's own domain. That is the whole verification. Claiming is free.
Next: send owners you manage the review form, and reply to our email with your published fee.
The first check compares the domain of the address you enter with the domain printed on the company profile. Some companies hold a second domain for the same business, and an address on either one passes. Pick a company in the form and the field shows the domains that will pass.
The code goes by email to the address you entered. It works once and it expires, so enter it when it arrives. If nothing arrives, check the spelling of the address you typed and write to us through the contact page.
Some claims cannot finish the automatic path: an address on a domain we do not hold for the company, or a company with no profile yet. The form sends the same details to a person. Requests from one connection are rate limited, and the reply comes by email.
A claim never changes a position. The order on the market and category pages comes from the printed method, applied to the same sourced facts for every company. A correction is accepted with a source, and the profile shows the fact, the source and the date it was checked, as the editorial policy sets out.
Each rule above is written down on a page of this site, so you can read it before you send anything.
Yes. Choose "My company isn't listed yet" in the first field. Give the company name, the website, the market or city and any listing links you want us to see. A person reviews the request and replies by email, and the listing stays free.
That is the most common reason the automatic check stops. Choose your company, enter the address and send the request form. The details reach a person who can match the company and the address by hand. Nothing is published from a request alone.
The automatic check needs an address on the company's own domain, so a free mailbox on its own does not pass. Send the request form from the same page and a person will look at the company and the address you give. If you are unsure which address to use, ask through the contact page first.
No. A claim changes facts and access, never position. Every market and category page follows the same printed method for every company, claimed or not, and no company can pay to change its place.
The badge is a small image and link you can put on your own site. After the claim the page gives you the embed code. We confirm the link points to your profile, and that confirmation is what lets owner requests reach you through lead matching.
Every correction carries a source. The profile then shows the corrected fact, the source and the date we checked it, as the editorial policy describes. A field with no source stays marked as not on record.
Yes. Claiming, the badge and lead matching cost nothing, and no company can pay for a position. The for managers page sets out what a listing includes.
