Tell us what you need.

It reads your words for two things: what you need and where you need it. The need is matched against the 36 sectors the Guide publishes, using the words buyers actually type — a rewire, an EICR, a fuse board all point at commercial electricians. The place is matched against the 20 towns and the address of every business listed. It then hands back the Guide's own ranked list for that sector, put in your area first. It does not score businesses itself and it cannot invent one: everything it shows was researched and ranked before you asked.

No. The finder returns the published ranked list in its published order, and that order is editorial. A business cannot buy a position in a ranking, so it cannot buy a position here either. If you name a town, businesses in that town come first — that is the only thing that reorders the list, and the page says so when it happens.

It says so, and gives you the West Yorkshire list instead. Coverage is deepest in Calderdale and Kirklees and thinner elsewhere, so a blank in your town usually means the Guide has not researched it yet rather than that nobody good works there.

Not yet. The Guide covers 36 sectors of business-to-business and trade services across West Yorkshire, and consumer categories such as restaurants, shops and leisure are not part of it. If the finder cannot place what you asked for, it will tell you rather than guess.
