It would be amazing to be able to add a bit of information on pages inside our directories that have lots of listings to give it more SEO/AEO goodness - such as on a Accountants, Auto Repair, Plumbers, etc pages

When I start a new location directory Id like to use the same menu from my original, now fully customised SDAi

Once a Free Listing is switched to Premium, it sits in the same position in its respective Business Tag / Category. Is there a way to make all Premium Listings "live" above the Free Listings to make them more Premium? lol I think this would be an easy fix to make within SDAI, yes?

if a business has a 3rd party fav delivery service, they could add the link https://www.loom.com/share/13ff0fbdde5a416aa06686a750557d0f

I asked Chat-GPT, and here are a few of the benefits it offered. How AEO Benefits Your Local Business Directory Your directory can become: 👉 A trusted “answer source” for AI systems Meaning: Google AI ChatGPT Voice assistants Search engines …may start pulling recommendations, businesses, and answers FROM your directory pages. That’s powerful. 🧠 Why Directories Are PERFECT for AEO Think about what AI wants: ✅ Organized information ✅ Local relevance ✅ Structured business data ✅ Questions + answers ✅ Trust signals A directory naturally has ALL of that. 🚀 BIG BENEFIT #1: Your Directory Can Rank for “Best Of” Searches Example searches: “Best roofer in Miami” “Top dentist near me” “Best realtor in Fort Lauderdale” If optimized correctly: 👉 Your directory pages become the answer source. 🚀 BIG BENEFIT #2: Your Business Listings Become More Visible Most directories are weak because they only list: Name Address Phone That’s OLD SEO thinking. 🔥 AEO-Optimized Listings Would Include: ✅ Conversational Business Descriptions Instead of: “ABC Plumbing offers plumbing services.” Do: “ABC Plumbing is a trusted emergency plumber serving Miami homeowners needing same-day repairs.” ✅ FAQ Sections on Every Listing THIS is huge. Examples: What services does this business offer? What areas do they serve? What makes them different? Are they open weekends? 👉 AI LOVES FAQ structure. ✅ “Why Choose This Business?” This creates answer-ready content. ✅ Service + Location Specific Keywords Example: “Miami roof replacement” “Emergency AC repair in Fort Lauderdale” 🚀 BIG BENEFIT #3: You Become the “Authority Layer” Instead of businesses trying to rank alone… 👉 Your directory helps them rank. That’s MASSIVE value. You can literally say: “Our directory is optimized for AI search visibility, helping local businesses become easier to discover online.” That sounds HIGH-END. 🔥 BIG BENEFIT #4: You Can Sell Premium Listings This is where the money comes in. 💰 FREE LISTING vs PREMIUM AEO LISTING 🟢 Free Listing Name Phone Address 🔴 Premium “AI Visibility Listing” 💵 Monthly subscription Includes: ✅ Optimized business description ✅ FAQ section ✅ AI-ready content ✅ Schema markup ✅ Featured placement ✅ Voice-search optimization ✅ “Best of” inclusion 👉 NOW your directory has recurring revenue potential. 🧠 BIG BENEFIT #5: Your Directory Can Become a Local AI Brand Think about this… When people ask: 👉 “Who’s the best roofer in Miami?” AI systems need trusted local sources. Your directory could become: 👉 “According to Silver Hill AI Pros…” That’s authority. Thanks in advance, Barbara

Can we have the ability to add a link to their booking site?

I love the ability to add extra links to a business profile. The problem is the hard-coded labels we have to use. Our choices are: •Privacy •Terms and Conditions •Video Tutorial •Community •Help Center I'm having a hard time figuring out why any biz would want to use any of these labels/links in their directory profile. (or why anybody would click on them) On the other hand, I'd love to be able to offer the biz a link like this: •Check Out Our VIP Club •Grab Your Birthday Freebie •Memorial Day Special > Limited Offer •Claim Your Free Guide To Unlimited Happiness You get the picture There's an opportunity to drop a lead gen flow behind any of those links, a perfect FITD opportunity to demonstrate what we can do for them using the HL platform. Ideally we should be able to enter our own labels for all of the additional links. But if not, can we have at least one "Wildcard" link where we can add our own label and do our own thing?

Hi, I’m currently setting up a UK-based directory, but unfortunately, the UK (and I think all of Europe) have made it a legal requirement for all websites that use cookies (especially analytics) to ask permission. This is why whenever you access a European website you are greeted with a banner at the bottom of the page asking you to accept cookies (or refuse). I’ve managed to create a makeshift banner using custom header code and AI assistance, but because SmartDirectory re-renders the DOM frequently, it keeps reappearing on every page refresh and navigation — making it very annoying for users and breaking the localStorage consent logic. Requested Feature: A simple toggle in the SmartDirectory settings/branding area called “Enable Cookie Consent Banner” Clean banner at the bottom of every page Configurable text, Privacy Policy link, and “Accept Cookies” button Proper localStorage support so the banner does not reappear after the user accepts (even on refresh or page navigation) Basic colour customisation to match the directory branding This would make SmartDirectoryAI much more usable and compliant for European users. Thanks — really enjoying the app otherwise!
