Top: Regional: North_America: United_States: Texas: Business_and_Economy

Most sites should be submitted to a locality. Sites that may be listed at state level include:
  • Businesses with multiple branches, offices, or locations spanning multiple metro areas.
  • Clubs or associations drawing members from the entire state.
Texas-wide businesses, meaning there is no good way to put them in a subcategory which covers only a part of Texas. There shouldn't be that many sites in this Business and Economy category.

This is NOT a place to put businesses just because it's not obvious where they go.

Real Estate

If your site is about a real estate office or agent (or "Team"), it is best placed in the locality (ie - city or town) where the office is located. See the other listings in this category for examples of sites that fit at the state level.

As a general rule Real Estate sites will get listed ONCE, and submissions to multiple categories may cause delays or other adverse effects as we try to find proper placement.

Submitting to the wrong category creates a delay in getting listed at all, so for your own benefit please make every effort to place it properly. - Thanks!

This category is for Real Estate related sites that DO NOT fit into a lower subcategory... ie - They cover the entire state, or such a large portion they cannot be placed at a lower level such as a city, county or major metro area.
--------------------------------------------
NOTE: Real estate licensee websites are regulated by the Texas Real Estate Commission. They require licensees to identify themselves as such (Broker, Agent, REALTORĀ®, etc) and require that the sponsoring broker (i.e. - office name) be identified.

Submitters are encouraged to research these and other requirements for details.

Restaurants and Bars

No submissions are accepted in this category. Please browse to the Locality where your site is located and submit there under the most appropriate subcategory.
