LocalGuideX

Earn points by improving the local directory

LocalGuideX rewards useful, verifiable suggestions that help people discover Nepalese businesses they may not easily find elsewhere: home-based services, weekend operators, small local providers, emerging businesses, and community-led services. The goal is not to copy what anyone can already search on a map, but to build a richer local directory with details that genuinely help the community. Approved suggestions earn contributor points, community status, and eligibility for future reward campaigns.

What We Value Most

Hidden local providers: home kitchens, tutors, cleaners, beauty services, trades, migration help, accountants, and other small operators serving the Nepalese community.

Useful context: what they do, where they serve, how people can contact them, and why the listing helps locals make a better choice.

Community discovery: businesses that are active, genuine, and relevant, even if they do not have a polished website or strong search presence yet.

What Counts as Valid

A real local business, professional, shop, service, home-based operator, or community provider.

Small or emerging businesses that locals may not easily find through Google Maps or large directories.

Enough detail for an admin to verify the listing independently.

A clear business name, category, suburb, state, postcode, and useful description.

Helpful optional details such as phone, address, website, Facebook, or Instagram.

What Gets Rejected

Duplicates of businesses already listed or already suggested.

Obvious map listings copied without adding useful community knowledge or missing details.

Listings with vague names, missing location detail, or unverifiable descriptions.

Spam, affiliate-only links, fake businesses, or copied low-quality directory text.

Submissions for businesses outside LocalGuideX coverage or community relevance.

How Points Work

Approved suggestions earn 50 pts each, with a 50 pts milestone bonus every 4 approved suggestions.

If a business you suggested later becomes a claimed listing, you can earn a 200 pts Directory Builder bonus.

Points recognise trusted contribution. They do not currently guarantee cash redemption, but they may be used for partner perks, prize draws, and future reward campaigns.
