Hi,

there is something new on Expat.com!

We designed a new section dedicated to the companies of Costa Rica and their services: the Costa Rica business directory.

Professionals can now present their activity on Expat.com. We offer them two ways of doing it :

> a simple listing, with phone number and address. For free.

> a "premium" listing with a logo, description + a dedicated page with a complete description of their services and products (with pictures, localization on a map). For a reasonable price per year, payable online.

We will now be able to respond to companies' demands in terms of visibility on https://www.expat.com. We also hope this will meet your expectations since you will have access to a list of all the companies offering products and services to expatriates in Costa Rica.

Do you think that section is a good idea?

Please do not hesitate to post your thoughts and comments!

Thanks,

Julien

The Business Directory is an AWESOME idea as I'd MUCH rather SUPPORT a business that I've seen participating here than do some random google search!! I can't tell you how MANY people find their doctor/dentist that way & I KNOW that when you do a google (or whatever) search for dentists in CR - one of the highest ranking in google is one I wouldn't go to if someone paid for my WHOLE mouth (which basically needs a total overhaul)!! I've heard over & over what a saddist (or is it massachist?? Loves to inflict pain in others?) he is. Another high ranking is one that has the lowest prices, but I more people I know that go to him have problems down the line & it ends up costing them more than had they stayed in the states.

Since there are SOOOO MANY websites out there for vacation rentals, I think ExpatBlog might be wise to have a Monthly Rate as well as an annual rate so people can see if this is going to work for them since the price for the Business Directory (the non-free one) is up there in price with the open to the public sites like VRBO that actively promotes to a wider audience & has pictures & all sorts of things!! Anyone know who I'd send this suggest to???
