Advertise Your Texas Business for Free!

1. Create a Username & Profile

First thing’s first: make yourself a username and some interesting stuff about your business in your profile, then click on “Create a Guide.”

3. Add In Information

In the guide Icon, a great image for your business is the front of your store, your logo or an image that directly relates to your business. There is a default icon provided for Texas, but you should use one for your business to optimize customer interest.

4. Add in your Location

Finally, fill in the Locations box in the right hand side of the page. You could put something like “Dallas, TX, Texas, Fort Worth”. You want to put as many places as your business serves, since it will show up on Texas.com only in those cities where locations match.

5. Tags

You don’t need to edit the tags for your business to show up on Texas.com, it’s already done for you!   

If for some reason your business is not listed in the Business/Attraction list, add in a “Custom Address” for your business and the location will pop up in your guide automatically.

7. Add a Map

After adding your business, click on “Map” and you can choose which businesses or addresses you want to show up.

8. Add an Image & Video

Add an image from your desktop or from Flickr. Be sure you have permissions to use the image!

If you have any video, be sure to upload it to YouTube and feature it here to showcase your business.   

9. Link to Your Website

If you have a website, you can link to it with the “Link” button.

10. Final Touches

Finally, remember that you can drag and drop your boxes anywhere in the two-column spread that Guidespot has. Add more images and intersperse them with text, or move that video to the top so your customers can see it easily.

When your guide looks the way you like, publish your guide with the “Make this Guide Public” box at the top.

Adding a guide to Guidespot can help your business because it’s not only a quick way to get out on the internet, but it’s completely FREE!
