What happens if my business changes its location?

By the way those dots on the mapping system are called UGLiis. UGLii means Unique Geographic Listing (for) industry (on the) internet.

No. You can log in at any time and as often as you want to change your information at no charge. We encourage you to login often to make sure your keywords best describe the products or services you supply.

How important are my keywords?
Your keywords are vital to your business being discovered by the people most important to your business - searchers that are looking for your products or services. It is worth putting in some time thinking about the keywords your potential customers will use to search for products and services to describe your business. Here are a few handy tips:

Think of the main lines of products or services you provide (you have 250 characters all up)
Use plurals (some people will search for restaurant, some will search for restaurants)
Use you trading name as a keyword
Include the main brands you sell.
Target the industry you service.
Add your town/city/suburb and the post code.

Be very careful not to use brands you are not entitled to use- apart from being illegal it is against our rules.

What exactly is a keyword?
A keyword can be any single word or any series of words (e.g. restaurant, Italian restaurant, Italian seafood restaurant.

If I want to show my website how do I do that?
You can login and buy an UGLii Link from your dot on the map to your website. Searchers will be taken straight to your website when they click on your business listed in the search results or if they click on your dot (UGLii). An UGLii Link can be purchased as a 1-year subscription online using a credit card. As part of that subscription, you can also install our interactive map on your website to show where your business is. This is a simple process with full instructions provided from your Control Panel. You can install it on your website yourself - no skills required. Providing a fully interactive map on your website is handy for visitors that discovered you through a search engine or know your domain name.

After you have purchased an UGLii Link, your business listing and UGLii changes to blue color, this lets users know that more information is available about your business. Businesses with UGLii Links are listed first in alphabetical order, followed by businesses with verified and up-to-date information, and lastly by regular business listings.

When you purchase an UGLii Link the number of characters that you have available for keywords increases from 250 to 5000. This means that you can be much more specific in your use of keywords - which means greater discoverability for your business.

What makes Axuz Affiliates different from other online directories?
Axuz Affiliated websites feature true spatial searching and a host of other features. Importantly as a partner of the UGLii Find^TM network, Axuz Affiliates provide discovery for your business on other business directory websites. This means that businesses registering with an Axuz Affiliate will automatically appear in other online directories in the UGLii Find^TM network (over 50 business related websites in Australia delivering over 8.5 million page impressions a month) using the same mapping system. This greatly increases the chance for your business being discovered.

The patented geographic directory technology is state of the art in providing true spatial search. Only businesses that meet the searchers criteria are presented - no one is able to "hijack" the search by paying to come up in the results of irrelevant searches, which can be very frustrating in other systems.

Users appreciate the relevancy and accuracy of the search results delivered by Axuz Affiliates. Our verification process for registering businesses allow users to have confidence that only real businesses are presented.
