Bizcomnetwork

Bizcomnetwork works like a classic business directory. You pick a category, such as doctors and clinics, pharmacies, restaurants, repairs and home services, property, education, or manufacturing and industrial supplies, and narrow it by city. If you allow your browser's location, it can also find businesses within a set distance, with options down to a kilometer.

Listings carry a business profile, contact details, categories and photos. The site also has reviews, messages and a blog.

Any business can post one listing free. Paid plans add capacity: Starter is 499 rupees a year for five listings, Business 2,499 a year for 100, and Enterprise a one-time 9,999 for unlimited listings. Featured placement is sold separately at 199 rupees for seven days or 499 for 30 days, putting a listing above regular matches with a highlighted card and a Featured badge, paid by QR code and checked by an admin. Readers should know that featured results are paid placements.

The privacy policy is specific about nearby search. When you use your location, the browser sends coordinates to the server for that search instead of tracking you continuously, but those coordinates appear in the search URL and may stay in browser history and server logs. If that matters, searching by city is the alternative. It suits people in India looking for local services, and small businesses that want a free listing.
