Business address directory listings

    Hello,

    I am looking to start a directory where instead of a link and summary showing up, I want the address and business name to show up. Is there a directory software out there that focuses on businesses, addresses, and links? Or is there a mod for phpLD that when showing the listings it will just show the business name, address, and URL? The end goal is to have a directory structure like phpLD, but instead of it listings the name, summary, and link, it lists the name, address, and link.

    Any and all help is appreciated.

    I think freewebspace actually has a mod where extra fields can be placed
    for addresses, telephone numbers and other data if needed...

    I myself have been thinking of adding this as that would be a better resource
    in that its being more specific and not just about the site but the actual business...

    thx

    Yes, phpLynx will do exactly what you want, the full version is based around Yell.com which is pretty much the best business directory out there. If you want a demo ask on the Forum and they'll arrange this for you.

    Hope that helps.

    malcolm1 - you're always very helpful.

    Not many like you and with that many directories how do you have time for this?

    You know the more i keep thinking about this it does have its appeal as any real company
    would love to be able to add thier Business address as well as a telephone which can send
    direct traffic to a viewer as well provide important background info on them...

    I just may start adding this to the details pages and see what happens...;)

    thx

    As Pheonix mentioned, phpLynx was specifically designed from the beginning to be a business directory with addresses and contact info. No mods needed.
