For business owners
Why join FIND LOCAL UK
FIND LOCAL UK is a directory of independent businesses across the whole of the UK — free to browse, free to list. We help people find the shops, trades and services on their doorstep, and we give owners simple tools to be found, to promote themselves and to see what is working.
How the directory works
You add your details
Name, category, town, contact details and photos. Seven short steps, and you can save and finish later.
We check and publish
Our team reviews every listing, usually within two working days, before it goes live in the directory.
Customers find you
Your profile appears in category, town, county and postcode searches across the site.
Free and Premium, side by side
Every business gets a complete listing for free. Premium is optional, and simply improves where you appear.
| What you get | Free | Premium |
|---|---|---|
| Full profile page with photos and contact details | ||
| Reviews, replies and customer enquiries | ||
| Publish special offers and events | ||
| Insights: views, clicks and unique visitors | ||
| Featured This Week homepage adverts | Book at £1 a day | Book at £1 a day |
| Placement in category and town listings | Standard | Priority above standard |
| Premium badge on your profile | — | |
| Cost | Free, always | £4.99 a month or £40.00 a year |
Premium pricing: £4.99 a month, or £40.00 a year. Twelve monthly payments would total £59.88, so the annual plan saves £19.88 — almost four months free. Cancel any time; your listing returns to free at the end of the period you have paid for.
Separate from Premium
Featured This Week — £1 a day
A paid advert in the Featured This Week strip on our homepage, labelled clearly as a paid placement. You get an image, a headline, a short description and a link to your listing for exactly the days you book. There is no subscription and no minimum term, and you pay once, up front.

- Free listings and Premium listings can both book it.
- Booking it does not upgrade you to Premium — the two products are separate.
- Choose your start date and duration, subject to the few spaces we hold each day.
- Every promotion is checked by our team, and it disappears automatically when your dates end.
More ways to be seen
Publish special offers
Add genuine discounts and packages to the Local Deals section and your profile. They expire automatically after their end date, so nothing goes stale.
Promote events
Open days, markets, workshops and launches can be submitted from your dashboard and appear in our events listings.
See how your listing performs
Insights shows profile views, website and phone clicks, and unique visitors, so you can judge what is working rather than guessing.
An honest promise
We give you visibility, tools and a professional profile. We do not promise a set number of enquiries, customers or sales — no directory honestly can. What we can promise is that our prices are clear, our placements are labelled, and you can stop anything you have bought at any time.
