How the free listing works
Three steps, one of which is us doing the work.
- 1
Fill in the form
Business name, what you do, where you work, and how people reach you. There is no account to create and no card to enter — the whole thing takes under a minute.
- 2
We check it by hand
Every submission is reviewed by a person, usually within 48 hours. That is the slow part, and it is deliberate — hand-checking is why the directory is worth appearing in.

Your listing goes live
You get a page with your details, your trade, and your area — indexable by Google, linked from the relevant category and city pages.
A listing gets you found. A website gets you booked.
Being listed is worth doing — it puts your name, area and phone number on a page Google can index, and it costs nothing. But a directory entry can only ever say who you are. It cannot show your work, answer a question at 9pm, or take a booking while you are on a job.
That is the part we build. A proper site, an AI chatbot that answers and captures leads around the clock, a backend and a CRM — done for you, managed for you, £19.99/month with a 10-day free trial and no upfront cost.
Common questions
Is listing my business really free?
Yes. Listing on Promote Your Business is free and stays free — no tier upsells, no trial that turns into a bill, and no card required to submit.
How long does approval take?
Usually within 48 hours. Every listing is checked by a person before it goes live, so it is not instant.
Which businesses can be listed?
UK businesses across 35 trade categories and 530 cities — plumbers, electricians, gardeners, cleaners, dentists, photographers, virtual assistants and more.
Do I need a website to be listed?
No. A listing works on its own and gives you a page that can be found in search. A website earns you more, though — a listing helps people find you, a site is what turns them into an enquiry.
Is a free directory listing good for SEO?
A single listing will not move your rankings on its own. What it does is put consistent name, address and phone details on an indexable page, which supports local search alongside the other directories worth submitting to.
