The Business category generally lists and categorizes sites that cover:
Business as an activity:
Sites covering industrial and commercial activities involving the exchange
of commodities, services, or financial resources.
Sites offering supporting services, information and resources
to business and businesspeople, such as trade associations, educational institutions
and training programs, business and economic news, events, etc.
Business as an entity:
Official web sites for and about corporations and commercial enterprises
(including subsidiaries) that manufacture, distribute, market and sell goods
and services to other businesses (B2B) and/or consumers (B2C). Note: If the purpose of the site is to serve as a Shopping destination
for consumers (or consumers and businesses), the site should be listed
in the Shopping branch.
Sites that exist solely to provide information about a company and its
goods and services. Note: a company's brand name sites that focus on
providing information to consumers are listed under Home/Consumer Information . See the Consumer Information FAQ for more information.
Sites that focus on the theoretical, practical or operational aspects
of a business enterprise: accounting, finance, human
resources, management, marketing, etc.
Sites generally not listed in the Business category:
Shopping sites: Sites that exist primarily to sell goods and services
directly to the consumer should be listed in the Shopping branch. See the
Shopping category description for more detail.
Commercial sites (particularly "dot.coms") whose main purpose is to
provide information and resources to the consumer, as an end-user of the
product or services (e.g. Google, ConsumerSearch.com, XML.com, MP3.com, etc.)
Local businesses: sites for companies serving a very limited geographic
area, like a single state (or equivalent), city or metro area should be submitted
to the Regional branch.
The editors reserve the right not to list your site, and to delete it after its addition. Multiple submissions, especially to inappropriate categories, will not be tolerated.
