What is included in a bloo package?
Business listing positions work via a three tiered system. The top tier, being a shade of bloo, can be classified as a Secured Position. Customers who opt to advertise in this tier will have their listing secured, (based on the date they signed up). It is very much "first in best dressed"! The next tier simply has a white background. Customers who opt to advertise in this tier are prioritised above the FREE alphabetically listed businesses; (final tier).
Target Zoning can be defined as the suburb/s your business will result in when those certain zones are searched. For example, businesses with paid positioning who choose no target zoning will only appear in their specific postcode where their business is located. Those who opt for Greater Perth Zoning will appear in any results when any suburb is search within that Greater Perth region. Wider zoning can be purchased depending on the areas in which your business services; e.g. All suburbs north of the river.
Are you a "Come To Heading" or a "Go To Heading"? In order to combat the issues of irrelevant search results, bloo has put in place target zoning rules. "Come To Headings" such as air conditioning specialists or carpet cleaners who are able to service all areas as they are businesses that come to the consumer. "Go To Headings" however are only able to service their specific area and 3 surrounding postcodes as consumers have to go to them. These are generally restaurants, hotels etc.
