In regards to requesting a regional listing

http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Missouri/Metro_Areas/Kansas_City_Metro/

Does the business address need to be on the index page? Or can it be listed on the contact us page?

Also, our business is in a suburb of Kansas City, so I wanted to submit there but since the city name is actually different (though we're still metro), will that cause confusion?

Sorry for all the questions; just want to make sure I do it right.

As long as the address can be found by the editor without checking every page, it's ok. The conatact page should be fine.

However, chances are, it's going to end up in the city you are located in - - so if that city is under one of the letters in http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Missouri/Localities/ -- that's probably the place to suggest it.

Thank you. We're located in Independence, which boarders Kansas City and is considered Kanas City Metro.

I notice most of the listings there are not commercial but since a couple are, I guess it's okay to submit there, correct?

I had trouble with the topical category and don't want to even go down that road again. A regional listing would suffice.

Submit to Independence then, Regional listings for most businesses are at the level that encompasses their physical locations.

Absolutely - the neat thing about Regional is that is shows a more community-based approach to a directory, as opposed to theme-based. This way, anyone interested in "what's local" will be able to see your business.

OK, I didn't see Independence the first time. Thanks for the suggestion.

Here's a link for you http://dmoz.org/Regional/North_Amer...calities/I/Independence/Business_and_Economy/ would be the best category.

Thanks.
