  27. After I save changes to my listing but the changes do not appear on screen. Why not?
    You are displaying an earlier version of the screen from the cache file on your hard drive. Delete the old cache file and hit the refresh button (F5 in Windows and Reload Page or Command R in Mac.)

  28. I entered my latitude & longitude (example 33.837503, 118.379994) but the map is wrong. What do I do?
    You MUST place a minus character in the longitude for any North American location. This is because -118.379994 is west of the Greenwich longitude meridian, and is different from 118.379994 which is EAST of the meridian. To indicate a west longitude REQUIRES that the negative character '-' be placed in front of the longitude number.

  29. How can I change the primary business Category?
    The primary category can be changed by contacting the webwaster. The webmaster preserves the balance of states, categories and allowed listing types and numbers of listings as set in Admin > Settings. The webmaster can change the primary category by using Manager > Work with Single Listing.

  30. Why is a next page button absent from search results?
    To give every business listing an equal chance at being seen the search results are ordered first by listing type, then by random company name. The result is that paid listings always have a better visibility, but also that if all listing types are the same then everyone has an equal chance of being shown. If there was a next page, then everybody would have an equal chance of being shown on that too, so it would not really be a next page. To zero in on a specific business, use one of the many search tools provided on the specialized search page.
