Do I have to register to add a listing
Yes. It’s just how the software works. But I don’t care what email or name you use (it won’t appear in the listing, anyways) and it’s 100% free to register and add listings.
Can I add my own listing?
Please go ahead. Even if you do, other people will be able to add reviews of the business. If you list your own business, please use this advantage to fully fill out all the details. Take a quick video of the space or a few photographs of the space people will be in, so you can upload them. Add detailed information about accessibility (are there stairs, how wide are the doorways, is the bathroom ADA accessible, is there loud music or flashing lights, can that music be quieted on request etc).
My experience with a business is different from what is said on the site.
Then you should submit a review of that business, detailing your experience. Please mention the date and location (if there’s more than one) Reviews are appended to listings.
Can I claim a listing?
Sadly, this isn’t Google, so no. And reviews by owners refuting user experiences won’t be published. However, if you have additional details about your business, have pictures or video to share, or can correct information, click the “update a listing” button at the bottom of the page.
I’d like to add more details , pictures or video about a listing, not just review it.
Thank you… these pictures and details are very helpful for people to help understand how accessible a business is. Use the “update a listing” form.
What are you doing with all of this information? Do you plan to use this site to make money? Will there ever be a charge for this site?
The sole purpose of this site is to provide a service to the COVID cautious community in PDX, of which I’m a member. There are so many lists, maps, and spreadsheets out there, and many are out of date. This was meant to be one universal place that people could use easily, even on mobile, to get up to date information. I developed the site myself, I pay for hosting and all external services, and will do so as long as I’m able. I will never charge members of this community or businesses listed here in any way, now or in the future. This is a free service.
I live in another city and would love to have this functionality for my city. Is it possible?
Definitely. I am more than happy to copy this site, teach you to use it, and help you get it up and going in your city. Thank you for being willing to volunteer to administer a map in your city. Please reach out at amanda@covidinfopdx.com
