Claim it! Directory Listings on West Bloomfield Patch Benefit Businesses

Yes, we’re committed to providing West Bloomfield news around the clock, but we aim to serve as your favorite destination for community resources and communication as well.

One way we accomplish this for West Bloomfield is through our comprehensive Directory that lists all businesses and community organizations in town.

So, owners and managers, I encourage you to find your business, then “claim it” and enjoy the many benefits of your free Directory listing on West Bloomfield Patch.

Your listing is interactive; you can share it on Facebook, Twitter, via e-mail and phone, and Patch users can follow you for updates. When your listing claim is approved, you can add free photos, videos and PDF information about your business. You can also edit most of the information within your listing, such as hours of operation. Our team also links to listings from news articles, features, events, or announcements.

The perks: As you continue to refresh your listing with new photos or a customer review, you help the placement of your Directory listing within West Bloomfield Patch.  Your updates can also appear on the home page, giving your business some additional exposure.  Better yet, it helps with your natural search results on the major search engines like Google and Bing!

To get started:

1. Sign up to use West Bloomfield Patch by creating a log-in.
2. Click on the Directory tab of the West Bloomfield Patch homepage.
3. Search for your business with the “Search Directory” bar or browse the categories on the left side.
4. In my search, I was looking for “town hall” and came across the West Bloomfield Town Hall. Select your business by clicking on its name.
5. Near the bottom of the listing, you will see: “Do you own or manage this business or organization? Claim it.” Click the "Claim it" link.
6. When logged in, you’ll see a pop-up form. Fill out the informational box and submit.

The approval process can take approximately 12-24 hours. This is to ensure that we know for certain we are working with the business or organization owner/manager. We appreciate your patience while we verify.
