Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

Spoiler for Where can I join Locationary?:

You can join Locationary by clicking here or clicking the banner.

Spoiler for The vision:

Quote from: Grant
This is the vision: Imagine the every business on the planet signs in here every week to manage their business information just like people manage their personal information on Facebook. We will then have a direct open line to these businesses to sell them anything we or our partners want ... and when we make money, we'll share 50% of it with our members.

To get every business on the planet to manage their information here, we're going to follow this 3-part plan:

PHASE I: Put basic information on every business into the system and start cleaning it up and bringing it up-to-date (this is what we're doing now).

PHASE II: Offer our data for free so that every website and mobile app that uses local data stops buying the old data from the Yellow Pages and starts using our updated data instead.

PHASE III: Let businesses take over their profiles and basic information for free, show them that they can manage their information in one place and that when they update their information (like their menus or hours of operation, etc.) everyone knows about it. After they take over their profiles, we start selling premium services to them, sharing the income with our members.

These Phases are going to overlap like this:
|------------------------|
__________|------------------------|
____________|------------------------|

...It's definitely an ambitious plan but, at the end of it, if we pull it off -- and I believe we will, we will manage the profiles for every business on the planet... be bigger than Facebook, and share 50% of our income with our members.

Spoiler for How do I earn with Locationary?:

Currently you can only earn by entering prize draws. In the future you will also earn money with the shares you have collected.

You collect shares when you're the first to add a place or update its information. In the future, some of these places will advertise and the people who have shares in the place will receive 50% of what Locationary receives from the place. This means that if Locationary receives $1000, you and the other shareholders will split $500. If you have all of the shares, you'll get the full $500! If you have 1/2 the shares, you'll get 1/2 of the $500.

Spoiler for How does Eeroz bots work?:

JavaScript bots:
My bots are JavaScript scripts, JavaScript can be executed from the you browser's address bar and that's exactly how we start them.

  • Copy the script.
  • Paste in your address bar and hit enter. (Chrome works best!)
  • Relax and enjoy! :)

Geocode Mission Bots

The red error messages means that Locationary limits server load by throttling it.



More will be added.. Leave a comment below if this doesn't answer your questions. Suggestions and feedback is welcome! :)
