How to Use the Yoogo Directory (and Why It Matters)

The Yoogo Directory already contains 20 million businesses with their publicly available information—organized by industry, location, and business name. This means most businesses are already here. The next step is claiming and shaping what people see.

1. Claim Your Business/Enter Your Business in the Directony

If your business is already listed, you can claim it.

Claiming unlocks the ability to update and control your information.

2. Update Your Information

Once claimed or once a new business is entered you can:

• Add or correct business details

• Upload files, product sheets, menus, portfolios, PDFs

• Add your origin story or service overview

• Link your website and contact information

This becomes your public, searchable presence.

3. Add Your Best Content (It Doesn’t Have to Be New)

Yoogo is not a traditional social feed. It’s a directory with content attached.

You can add:

• Your best social media posts

• Photos

• Videos

• YouTube links

• Articles

• Testimonials

These posts stay connected to your business profile, so when someone searches for you, they see your strongest work, not whatever you posted today.

Yoogo also lets you link all your other social media profiles, so visitors can jump straight to your content on any platform. Once people discover you on Yoogo, they can easily follow you across your other social channels.

4. Post Products (5 Free Marketplace Products Included)

Every business gets five free product listings on the marketplace.

Products can include:

• Photos

• Descriptions

• Pricing

• Files or spec sheets

These listings increase your visibility inside the directory and across topic/industry searches.

5. Attach Your Business to Topics, Industries, People

Every post can be connected to:

• Topics

• Industries

• People

• Other businesses

These act like magnets, they pull your business into more search pathways.

Yoogo is 100% organic reach. No ads override your visibility. No algorithm suppresses your posts.

6. Stay Active (Activity Improves Search Position)

Businesses with:

• Claimed profiles

• Updated information

• Attached posts

• Active channels

..tend to appear higher in search results than inactive businesses.

Activity does not mean constant new content.

You can recycle your best work. You can repost older videos. You can highlight evergreen content.

Because this is a directory, not a performance‑driven social feed.

7. Use Channels to Explain Your Work in Depth

Channels let you break down:

• Different services

• Different product lines

• Different ideas or specialties

• Different audiences

Each channel becomes another entry point for discovery.

8. No Ads. No Data Collection. No Pay‑to‑Reach.

Yoogo does not:

• Sell your data

• Collect behavioral data

• Run ads that outrank people or businesses

• Charge you to be seen

Visibility is earned through relevance, activity, and clarity, not spending.
