How do I look for craft business information?
To find relevant information, simply either choose from one of the many categories at the LEFT of the page.
How do I use the search function?
If you are after something more specific use the SEARCH function. We've tried to make the search as easy as possible by applying key words and tags to each entry.
We're always keen to hear from our users, so do let us know if you think the search could be enhanced and how you would like it to work.
How do I choose how links are sorted?
Links are automatically returned in date order, with the links most recently listed shown at the top. However, if you prefer to sort the results alphabetically press the 'Order Links Alphabetically' links that appear above and below the lists of links. Please note that if there are more than one page of links and you aren't viewing the first page, you will be returned to the first page.
Are all the links relevant?
Every link has been visited and checked personally by us and checked that the information is relevant to our site. We do ask users to let us know if they believe there are any problems with any of the links on this site.
Are all the links live?
We know how frustrating it is to find page after page of dead or broken links. That's why we check all the links on Make For Business every 24 hours!
If we find a link is unavailable, it is flagged in our database. We then recheck the link 12 hours later and if the link is functioning again, the flag is removed.
If, however, the link is still not available, it remains flagged.
It is checked twice more at 12 hour intervals and if the link is still not working it is removed from Make For Business. This way we ensure that links are not removed just because of a short term error, but that persistently unavailable pages are removed.
What if Make For Business is missing a link?
We've spent many happy hours trawling the internet looking for craft business information, however we know that there are still plenty of pages we've not found yet. Please let us know via the 'Suggest a Link' page of any useful web pages we should be including - or get in touch using the form on the 'Contact Us' page.
What is RSS?
If you wish to be kept informed of the latest update to the site subscribe to the RSS feed at the top right hand side of the page. Please click here to find out a bit more about what RSS is.
