For Isle of Man businesses

Get found by customers, free.

manx.directory is the Island’s own business directory - owner-listed and built for the Isle of Man. List your business in minutes and start showing up when people search.

It’s completely free to list your business. No commission, no monthly fee - promotion is optional, never required.

Why list

Why put your business on manx.directory?

One free listing, working for you in four ways.

Get found by customers

Turn up when people search your category, town or service - the moment they’re actually looking for what you do.

Free advertising

No ad budget, no commission, no monthly fee. Just a listing that quietly works for you all year round.

A page you control

A page of your own that shows up when people search for what you do - kept the way you want it, with a link straight through to your site.

Local trust, built in

A profile on the Island’s own directory reassures customers you’re a genuine, local business they can reach.

How it works

Listed in three steps

From nothing to found-on-search in a few minutes.

1

Add your business

Tell us the basics - name, category, where you are and how to reach you. It takes a couple of minutes.

2

Confirm your email

We email you a secure link to confirm your address - click it to verify and you’re in.

3

Get approved

We check every new listing before it goes live - we aim to do that within 24-48 hours. After that, keep your content up to date from your dashboard any time.

What’s included

Everything you need, free forever

A proper listing - not just a name in a phone book.

Your details, protected

You stay in control

Show what you want, and we keep the bots and scrapers out.

You choose what’s shown

Keep a phone number or email private and still be reachable, or route enquiries straight to your own website.

No scraping, no spam

Contact details sit behind a bot check rather than in the page, and rate limiting guards the rest. We don’t sell listing data or pass it to anyone else.

Secure by default

Passwordless, link-based sign-in - and we only ever publish the details you choose to make public.

FAQs

Questions, answered

Is it really free?

How long until my listing goes live?

Confirm your email and we review new listings before they go live - we aim for 24-48 hours. You can build out your listing while you wait.
