Premium Local Guide Directory Listings on Virtual Swanage

For businesses, clubs and organisations that want to stand out, a Premium Directory Listing gives you far greater visibility and control than a standard entry. Your listing is placed at the top of your category, rotated into the featured section on the directory homepage, and shared in a monthly spotlight post across our Facebook and Bluesky pages, putting you in front of visitors and residents far more often.

Premium listings also let you tell your full story. List your business under up to six categories, add a photo gallery of up to ten images, embed a video, and write an extended description that goes beyond the basics. You can also upload a menu, price list or brochure, so customers have everything they need before they even get in touch.

A "Featured Business" badge marks your listing out from the rest, a booking or ordering button lets customers act straight away, and our Admin Photo Manager makes it easy to keep your gallery fresh and up to date.

It's the most effective way to promote your business, club or organisation on Virtual Swanage.

Terms & Conditions of Listings

We care a great deal about the quality of the directory. Please be aware that abusive submissions will result in the removal of all sites connected with the abuser.

  • We only accept businesses where the owners or the business is located in the BH19 and BH20 postal code area within the Isle of Purbeck in the United Kingdom. Any other areas will be deleted.
  • Websites with illegal content are forbidden in the Swanage Index. Examples of illegal material include, but are not limited to, child pornography and content infringing on copyright.
  • Please avoid submitting websites with addresses that redirect to another address.
  • Please avoid submitting websites which have pop-up windows that open when the site loads. These are very annoying for many people.
  • Submit your entry to the most relevant category. Listings intentionally submitted to inappropriate or unrelated categories will be removed.
  • Wait until your website is complete before submitting your URL. Sites which are incomplete, contain "Under Construction" notices, or contain broken graphics or links aren't good candidates for the directory.
