About GeoPublishers.com

GeoPublishers.com is the new voice of the geodomain industry. We are the trade association for anyone who owns, or works in, or is just interested in following local and hyperlocal online businesses. There are no restrictions on who can join - we are open to city sites, country sites, long-tail domains and regardless of suffix! Business category members will have access to a range of services geared to what you need to know to grow your business, including local market data from Borrell Associates, and the opportunity to participate in co-op advertising deals. The e-newsletter will be available to all members, in any category. And any visitor to our site can access the industry news and legal sections, as well as the jobs board and marketplace.

There will be at least one expo a year, and for 2011 we will meet in Chicago, starting with the President's reception on Friday 30 September and then a day-and-a-half of keynotes and presentations on October 1/2. The venue is the fabulous Chicago Fairmont. Space is limited, so please register soon.
