What you gain by listing on these platforms

• More inbound leads from people already searching for your services.
• Trust & proof via public reviews and photos of completed jobs.
• Local SEO lift through consistent citations and backlinks.
• Category visibility where customers compare providers.
• Faster bookings when you connect WhatsApp and offer instant quotes.

How to stand out (quick checklist)

• Add both English & Arabic descriptions if possible.
• Show before/after photos, staff IDs, municipality approvals (if relevant).
• Publish clear packages (e.g., “1BR Basic Cleaning – AED 149”).
• Enable WhatsApp click‑to‑chat and answer within minutes.
• Ask happy customers for reviews after every completed job.
• Track each directory with unique phone/UTM links so you know what works.

What to prepare before listing

• Business trade name (exactly as on license)
• Trade license & permits (for verification when asked)
• Service areas, working hours, and emergency fees
• Logo + brand photos (square and landscape)
• Short description (100–160 chars) + full description (300–600 words)
• WhatsApp number, booking link, and accepted payment methods

Measure results and double down

Create a simple tracker (Sheet or your CRM) to log:

• Directory name, date listed, lead source tag
• Leads received, jobs won, revenue, review count
• Response time and close rate

After 30 days, keep the 3–4 sources that produce real jobs and trim the rest.
