Bizwiki.co.uk in Top UK Citation Sources list – Again!


Since its launch in 2007, Bizwiki has been considered an important place for local businesses to be listed. This is not only for the traffic Bizwiki can drive to a business but also because Bizwiki provides business information to the ever popular Accessplace.com as well as several other local UK directories like TownPages.com and BritishServices.co.uk.

On yesterday’s Top UK Citation Sources for local businesses compiled by Smart Local, (click here) Bizwiki, Accessplace and TownPages.com take 3 of the top 30 slots.

We are of course grateful to the author of the list and honoured to be included, especially since it means we are keeping our place in the “top citation sources” lists for a fourth consecutive year.

In 2012 Nyagoslav Zhekov of NGS Marketing reviewed a number of published “top citation source” lists and assigned points to the sites based on how many times each was mentioned. Bizwiki.co.uk was ranked number 6 out of more than 30 UK local business sites. 

In 2011 Bizwiki was featured as an “extra-important” site on LocalVisibilitySystems’ Top UK Local Business Directories list.

In the same year both Bizwiki.co.uk and Accessplace.com appeared on Bright Local’s Top 50 UK Citation Sources list.

And in 2010, Mike Blumenthal featured a guest post by Myles Anderson which jointly listed both Bizwiki.co.uk and Accessplace.com as number 8 in the Top 10 UK online business directories.

Both sites also appeared on Cylex UK’s 2010 list of 28 Online Business Directories.

We are happy to have received these commendations, and more importantly hope that our users continue to find Bizwiki to be a useful resource when searching for any local companies, business and charities.

    Hi there, is there a manual submission link for new business registration?

  2. admin on August 16th, 2013

    Hi. Thanks for the question. The add/edit function was disabled in January. We are still adding new companies to the index on a routine, scheduled basis.

    To make sure you get added please ensure that your company name and contact details are on the homepage and/or about page of your site.

    Thanks!

  4. admin on August 22nd, 2013

    Hi, thanks for the comment. I note you have your address on your About page so Bizwikibot should find you on its next crawl and add you to the database at the next scheduled update.

    All the Best,

    Hi,

    I want to add my site on your directory listing but I can’t see any link to the form.

    Thanks

  6. admin on August 30th, 2013

    Hi David,

    Thanks for your comment. In January of this year we removed the add/edit function and instead are using BizwikiBot to find and add companies. Your website clearly lists your contact details in a format web bots can access so it should only be a matter of time before Bizwikibot finds and adds your company to the database.

    Thanks.

  15. admin on September 24th, 2013

    Thanks for your questions – as mentioned in previous replies BizwikiBot is running but the updates are done on a scheduled basis. So although the bot may have gathered the data it will only show on Bizwiki once the scheduled update has been successfully pushed.

    Thanks for your patience.

  28. Adam on November 5th, 2013

    Hi Do we need to comment on this page or anything to be added or are your bots litterally listing every business page on the web?

    Hi Adam and Stuart,

    To help Bizwiki Bot find your information please ensure that your company name, address and telephone details are on the home and/or about pages of your site.

    We have had a great deal of success in adding and compiling business records using our fine-tuned Bizwiki Bot Spider, and new company records will be added to the site periodically at regular intervals.

    Thank you for using Bizwiki

  33. Andrew Stanley on November 28th, 2013

    Hi Bizwiki,

    Please could you add my business (South Devon Relocations) to your directory. Our website is new, so I am really keen to get it listed asap!

    Many thanks.

  34. admin on November 29th, 2013

    Hi Andrew, thanks for your comment. BizwikiBot regularly searches for and finds new companies to add but the updates to the database are scheduled rather than instant. If your company name and contact details on on your site’s homepage or about or contact page in a format that bots can read (text rather than graphics) it should be too long before you’re added.

    Thanks
