Common questions

Is it really free to list my business?

Yes — listing your business on Locals of Texas is free. We manually review every submission so the directory stays trustworthy and high-quality.

What types of Texas businesses qualify?

Small and locally-owned businesses anywhere in Texas — restaurants, home services, professional services, shops, home-based brands, and market vendors. National chains and franchises are not the focus.

How do you decide which businesses get listed?

A real person manually checks every submission. We check that the business is real, located in or serving Texas, and matches the category description. We may reject submissions that look spammy, duplicate an existing listing, or violate our Terms.

How long does approval take?

Most listings are reviewed within 24–48 hours. If your submission needs more information we email you within that window.

Can I edit my listing after it goes live?

Yes — once approved, claim your listing through the Owner Dashboard and you can update photos, description, contact details, and services anytime. Changes go live immediately.

How do Featured slots work?

A Featured slot is a paid time-limited placement on the city page and the homepage. Each city has up to 6 slots, filled from a fair first-in/first-out queue. Your category ranking is not affected; only homepage and city placement.
