Our competitor is listed but we are not: what to do
You found your competitor on SuomiGuide, but your own business does not show up. The reason is usually simple: we have not yet found your business in public sources, or it is listed under a different name. You can fix this in a few minutes.
1. Search in different ways first
- Search by the official business name and by any auxiliary trade name.
- Open your city and your category and browse the list.
- Try the street address.
- Remember any recent change of business name or address.
If you find your business but the details are wrong, use the Report an error form.
2. Add your business for free
- Open the Add your organisation for free form.
- Enter your name and email address. Phone is optional.
- Add the business name and a link to its website or Google Maps location.
- Briefly give the address, opening hours and what the business offers.
- Accept the Privacy Policy and send the form.
Use the same name and address as in the Finnish Business Information System (YTJ). More detailed instructions: How to add your business for free. Adding is free: you do not need to buy anything to appear in the same lists as your competitor.
Has the competitor paid for its place?
Not necessarily. Most businesses are listed for free. If a business pays for priority placement or a premium listing, it is marked with a crown icon and the label "Mainos" (advertisement). Other businesses are shown in the standard order of the catalogue, which does not depend on payment. Read more: Does payment affect rankings and reviews?.
What happens after you send the form?
Our editorial team checks the details and adds the business to the right city and category. We answer by email as soon as we can. What kinds of businesses are listed is explained in Which businesses are listed on SuomiGuide?.
