Questions business owners ask
Can’t see your question? Ask us and we’ll get back to you.
Is it really free?
Yes. A listing with photos, contact details, opening hours, reviews and your own page is free, with no time limit and no commission on any work you win. You only pay if you choose to feature your listing or post a job advert.
How long does approval take?
We check every new listing by hand, usually within 72 hours. You can see its status in your business account at any time, and if we need you to change anything we’ll tell you what and why.
Can I edit my listing later?
Yes. Sign in whenever you like to update your details, photos, opening hours, prices and offers. Changes to a live listing appear on your page shortly after you save. You can also pause or delete your listing from your account.
What photos work best?
Bright, real photos of your premises, products, food, team or finished work, taken in landscape where you can. Your first photo is the one people see on listing cards, so make it your strongest. Avoid photos covered in text, and only upload photos you took yourself or have permission to use.
How do reviews work?
Customers can review your business with their name and email address. The email is never shown and is used only to check reviews and prevent abuse. We check every review before it appears, and you can reply publicly from your account. We don’t remove reviews just because they’re negative, but if you think one breaks our rules, contact us.
My business is already on Go Sussex. Can I claim it?
Yes. Find your business and tap “Own this business?” on its page. Tell us how we can check that you run it, and once we’ve confirmed it the listing moves into your account so you can manage it.
How do I cancel a featured listing?
The 30-day option simply ends, so there is nothing to cancel. The monthly plan has a 3-month minimum; after that you can cancel at any time from your business account or by emailing [email protected], and your listing stays featured until the end of the period you’ve paid for. A monthly plan started during the launch offer keeps its £3.99 price for its first 12 months as long as it stays active — if you cancel and rejoin later, the standard price applies.
What is the Featured launch offer?
Until 28 February 2027, a Featured listing costs £5 for 30 days or £3.99/month. Start the monthly plan by then and you keep £3.99 a month for your first 12 months — our founding price. After that your plan moves to the standard monthly price, and we’ll email you at least 30 days before it changes. After 28 February 2027 the prices for new customers are £8.99 for 30 days or £4.99/month.
Will featuring my listing help my Google ranking?
No. Featuring only changes where you appear on Go Sussex — at the top of your category and town pages, with a Featured badge. It doesn’t affect how you rank on Google or any other search engine. Every approved listing, free or featured, gets the same indexable page.
