Why do you have categories and sub-categories?

Wouldn’t it be easier to just have categories like an ordinary shopping mall instead of having both?

Answer: It may appear that way especially when the mall first opens and there are only a few businesses. However, as the number of businesses increases, the “simple” becomes the “unwieldy”.

You do not have to click on the category, move your mouse over the category and you will see a list of sub-categories. This is faster and easier. You can leave this list open while you check other categories if you like. Then, you simply click on the sub-category and you are there.

Why do I sometimes see the same business listed in more than one location?

Answer: Many small businesses will have more than one service they offer or type of product they sell. We enable them by allowing them to be placed in multiple categories and sub-categories.
