Peek at a Premium page

A directory run by people who live here.

Langford Connect is a local online business directory for Langford and the Westshore, British Columbia. Residents and newcomers search it by category and neighbourhood to find trusted local businesses. Owners get a fast, search-visible profile with their name, address, hours, services and website link.

It's part of the Connect network with Chilliwack Connect: same team, same platform, same standards. Every listing is reviewed by a person. No scraped pages, no padding.

For residents and newcomers

Browse by category, neighbourhood and what's actually open. You get the roofer your neighbour uses, not the third page of a national aggregator.

Already proven in Chilliwack

Chilliwack Connect grew from a single page into the city's working directory, a Chamber-member advertising channel, and a page locals bookmark. Langford Connect gets that playbook on day one.

Search stopped being ten blue links.

People, and the AI assistants answering for them, need a second, structured source that confirms your business is real, open and here. That's what a listing is.

  • A citation AI can quote

    Your profile ships with structured data for name, address, phone, hours, categories and services: the machine-readable format answer engines prefer when they name a local business.

  • A real, followed backlink

    One followed link from a curated, locally relevant site, plus contact details that match your Google Business Profile instead of contradicting it.

  • Found for what you do

    Categories, tags and neighbourhoods put you in front of people searching “dentist in Langford” or “furnace repair Colwood”, not only people who already know you.

  • Neighbours who intend to buy

    Directory traffic is people already looking for a plumber, a photographer, a roaster. They arrive at the moment of decision.

No one can honestly promise you the top spot on Google. What we can promise is a fast, well-built page that tells search engines and AI assistants exactly who you are, what you do and where.

One rule: you have to be here.

A business has to be located in the Westshore catchment to be listed. Location decides eligibility, not service area.

Serve other cities too?

Your full listing lives here, where you're located. In the other Connect cities you serve, you show up as a small link card at the end of matching searches, and anyone who searches your name finds you. The card sends them straight back to your page here. Want a full listing in another city as well? That's an add-on.

Located somewhere else? Register anyway and we'll hold your spot for your own city's Connect directory.

10 businesses get Premium on us.

Questions

When does Langford Connect launch?

There's no public date yet. We're in build. Waitlist members hear the date first, and businesses on the waitlist are listed on day one.

How much does a listing cost?

A standard listing is free. Premium turns your listing into your own one-page website and adds category placement, event promotion and homepage features. Founding members get Premium at $149.95 a year, kept for as long as they renew, or can take one of 25 lifetime listings at $495, one payment.

What is the lifetime listing?

One payment of $495 for a Premium listing with no renewal. There are 25, offered to founding members off the waitlist, and the option closes at launch or when they're gone, whichever comes first.

What are the complimentary founding spots?

We're giving 10 businesses a Premium listing on us, so Langford and the Westshore can see what a full listing looks like. We choose them from early registrations.

Who can be listed?

Businesses, non-profits and service providers located in the Westshore catchment, including home-based and mobile operators, from Bear Mountain and Westhills to Royal Bay and View Royal. Location decides eligibility, not service area.

What if my business serves more than one city?

Your full listing lives in the directory where you're located: anywhere in Langford and the Westshore is home here. In the other Connect cities you serve, you appear as a small link card at the end of matching searches, and a search for your business name always finds you. The card links back to your page here, so each directory stays about its own area. A full listing in another city is an add-on. FindYou.ca, the master directory across every Connect city, is in progress.

Can I advertise in more than one city?

That's where the network is headed. As more Connect cities open, one campaign will be able to run across several directories and as social posts that lead to your Premium page, with one report showing how often you were seen and clicked in each directory.

My business is outside Langford and the Westshore. Can I join?

Not this directory, but register anyway: we'll hold your spot on the waitlist for your own city's Connect directory and email you when it opens. Chilliwack Connect is open now.

Will this help me show up in Google and AI search?

It helps, and no one can honestly promise a top spot. Your profile is a crawlable page carrying structured data and a followed link to your site, the signals search engines and answer engines use to confirm a local business exists and describe it correctly. It supports your Google Business Profile rather than competing with it.

Can I promote events and offers?

Those are Premium benefits: event promotion, seasonal offers, and Premium placement in your category or on the homepage. The free standard listing covers your profile, contact details, categories and website link.

How do I claim my business before launch?

Join the waitlist, then register your business. Send your photos, logo, brand colours, a video link and your Google Business Profile link, and we build the profile, send it to you to approve, and publish it the day we go live.

Can I register a business for someone else?

Yes, if the owner knows and agrees. Tick the box that says you're filling it in on their behalf, and we'll confirm with them by email.
