There is a significant distinction in our business between being “listed” and being “reviewed” on our website, Nodengo.com. Being “reviewed” entails a visit from one of our local editors who will then publish the establishment on our site. This is not available for purchase. On the other hand, being “listed” means you can add your establishment to our site for free, with the option to upgrade to an enhanced listing.
If you would like to schedule a review request for your establishment follow these steps:
- It will be done on our Network by local editors who live and work in your city.
- Complete our request form.
- Read and agree to our requirements which will be sent to you once your request has been received.
- Obviously and Editor cannot “evaluate” an establishment for which he/she is related in anyways either professionally or personally or for which he/she has family working within the business.
- You will be contacted within 48 hours by our team to confirm your request.
- Within 14 days of your accepted request, your establishment will be visited anonymously.
- At the end of their visit, our Editor will officially present him/herself as a Nodengo Editor by presenting his/her credentials.
- His/her expenses in your establishment for this visit will be “comped”.
- Do note that we have extremely strict guidelines, as not only as to what is permitted but also as to their conduct while in your establishment, you are fully authorized to consult them prior to agreeing to the process
- Your establishment is evaluated according to the Editor’s experience and according to our criteria.
- Regarding restaurant reviews: While our Editors are truly professionals, we are not restaurant “critics” and therefore our work will not focus solely on the food and the dishes, but rather on the overall atmosphere and the service. For all other establishments, they will be evaluated according to established standard within their respective trade.
- Your evaluation is then checked by our corporate office for style guidelines and technical specifications and then published.
- As a “reviewed” business, and if your review qualifies, your establishment will be automatically beneficiating of our enhanced listing, added to our featured sections, thus increasing your exposure on our site.
- The review will appear within 72 hours of its completion.
