   2. Premium slot – bigger presence with your logo

   3. Half-page or full-page ad – prime ad space to stand out

   4. Back-page feature – exclusive positioning for standout visibility

3. Select locations & frequency - you decide which areas you want to feature in and how often, based on your business reach.

4. Track your results - Every directory listing uses a unique phone number so you can see which calls and leads come from your ad.
