More than just a listing
1. Get a good-looking listing
We work with you to create a listing for your business that showcases your products or services. You tell us your story, and we’ll help you tell it to our engaged audience of people who live, work and play in Oxfordshire. And with over 100+ templates to work with, say goodbye to the one-size-fits-all pages.
2. Feature in non-branded stories
From our ever-popular “best of…” lists to gorgeous home and garden inspiration, seasonal recipes and down-to-earth guides, our editors regularly craft non-branded stories to showcase what’s on offer locally. A directory listing offers the opportunity to be included for free in these non-branded stories†.

3. Show up where it matters
We don’t promise to get your directory listing in front of “billions of potential customers”. That’s not what we’re about. Instead, we focus on driving engagement by making sure your listing appears where it matters; where it resonates – with people who live, work or play in Oxfordshire†.
†Inclusion in a non-branded story is at the sole discretion of the editor and is not guaranteed. Additional content creation and social amplification charges may be applicable. This will be discussed and agreed upon beforehand.
Directory listing questions
Can’t find what you’re looking for? You can always contact us.
Before you submit your listed, please check that you are not already listed in the directory.
All submitted listings are reviewed by our Digital Editors for accuracy and relevance, and we do not guarantee that your listings will be published. We’ll refund your listing fees (less any refund or bank charges) if your event is not approved for listing.
We accept PayPal and all major debit and credit cards. We also support transactions in a range of currencies.
Regrettably, for now, you cannot edit a directory listing directly. To make changes to your directory listing, please use the ‘+ Issue with this listing’ button at the very bottom of the listing page, and complete the form that pops up.
Please note that we have a house style and editorial guidelines that our Digital Editors apply to every directory listing – to help ensure a consistent look and feel across the website.
Not every part of the form needs to be completed. The parts that are required are clearly indicated. You will not be able to submit the event if you do not complete a required part of the form.
Please ensure that you have the photos and images to accompany your event listing. You can upload your photos and images directly. You can tell us about the images (captions) or whom to credit.
We offer free directory listing to community-interest organisations – these are organisations set up to benefit the community, with little or no commercial consideration. The organisation must not have any significant commercial sponsorships, but can be supported by the local council, local bodies and local businesses. Please contact us to check if your organisation qualifies for a free listing.
Subscriptions are annual and renew annually. Features and support are provided only for the duration of an active subscription. You can cancel your subscription anytime, but it will not take effect until the anniversary of the subscription.
