Top: Regional: North_America: United_States: Pennsylvania: Metro_Areas: Johnstown_Metro

This category is primarily for links to localities and counties listing general interest guides and directories, but may accept similar sites concerned with the metro area as a whole. Single-topic sites belong in other categories. For example, dining guides go to Business and Economy/Restaurants and Bars, hotel guides to Travel and Tourism/Lodging, and lists of businesses to Business and Economy.

Tips for Faster Acceptance:

  1. Location must be shown, preferably by address or local phone number.
  2. Format title as Hostcompany:Subject, where the subject would generally be the name of the metro area.
  3. Make description factual, avoiding promotional language and Unnecessary Capitalization.
  4. Compare existing listings for best results.

Business and Economy

Real estate agents may list one site only, in the locality where their office is physically located. Brokerages may also list one site at the locality where their office is located, or at a higher level if the company has multiple offices in more than locality, but will be listed no more than once in any case. Multiple submissions of the same or alternate URLs can lead to an agent or company being banned from the directory.

If an agent changes offices or a description change is needed, go back one page, click Update URL, and submit the corrected information in that way, not as a new submission.

Format Site Title As Follows
(for an agent site:) Agent Name - Company Name
(for a company site:) Company Name

Tips for Faster Acceptance:

  1. Location must be clearly shown, preferably by address or local phone number.
  2. Make sure the submitted title follows the above formatting.
  3. In the description, stick to the facts and avoid promotional language.
  4. Mention no more than three specialty areas. Don't stuff descriptions with keywords.
  5. Don't Capitalize Every Word or use ALL CAPS.
