As we approach September 2026, we are preparing to transition our platform into its next phase. To ensure we can continue to deliver high-quality promotion, active marketing, and a reliable directory for everyone, we will be introducing a small, low-cost subscription structure for our business listings.We know that every penny counts when running a small business, so we want to be completely transparent about why we charge a fee and how it directly benefits you:
Covering Active Digital Infrastructure and Hosting
Maintaining a secure, fast, and optimized directory website requires reliable web hosting, database maintenance, and continuous technical support. Your contribution ensures that our platform remains online, accessible, and user-friendly 24/7 for local customers looking for your exact services.
Hands-On Social Media Promotion and Content Creation
We don't just passively display your logo on a webpage and hope for the best. A significant portion of our platform fees goes directly toward funding active marketing campaigns, community outreach, and social media management across our channels. We actively build content around our members to push fresh local traffic toward your business links and social handles.
Keeping Advertising Unbelievably Affordable
Our directory operates on a grassroots, community-first model. By introducing an accessible pricing tier—such as our promotional annual package of just £45 for the entire year (which breaks down to roughly £3.75 per month)—we ensure that even the smallest local business or independent tradesperson can secure permanent digital shelf space without hidden administrative costs or heavy agency fees.
Subsidizing the Community Spotlight Initiative
We firmly believe in giving back to the community that supports us all. The revenue generated from our commercial listings allows us to provide 100% free, premium advertising space and dedicated promotion to local charities and non-profit good causes. When you invest in your business's visibility with us, you are also helping fund promotional support for charities that keep Suffolk strong.
What Happens Next?
Your listing will remain completely active. Ahead of the September transition, we will reach out with simple instructions on how you can select the package that best fits your workflow—whether you prefer the ultimate value of our yearly slot or a flexible month-to-month option.If you have any questions at all about our services, the upcoming schedule, or how we can help highlight your brand through our Logo Project, please don't hesitate to reply directly to this email.
