Signing Up
1. How long does it take to sign up?2. What do I need to get started?It varies on your level of computer experience, but the actual signup process usually does not take more than 10 minutes!
3. Are all your useful features offered with every package?A computer and perhaps a few photos - that's it! We do not even require a credit card when you sign up. It's a true, 7-day Free Trial.
4. How do I get more visitors to my listing or website?It depends on your package, but we offer a Free 7-day trial for all of our features. It's only fair that you are able to try them before you buy. We don't want you to subscribe unless you are absolutely satisfied. We recommend at least a Website Package, for the most benefits.
5. Is it possible to have my ad appear before other ads?If you would like to get more traffic to your website and listing, we would recommend that you upgrade to a VIP membership. This will list your ad above all other packages. We also recommend you advertise on other service provider directories with a link back to your Cuties Guide website.
6. How do I become a VIP member?A VIP Website Package will allow you to do this. VIPs are prioritized and appear before all the other types of listings. To become a VIP member, select it when you are signing up. If you are already a member and would like to upgrade to VIP, please contact us and we will handle it for you.
7. I need better pictures - can you help me?It's the same process as all the other signups - simply select the VIP Package when you are signing up. If you are already a member and would like to upgrade, please contact us and we will handle it for you.
8. What category is the best?To get more attention and clients, we always recommend having professional pictures taken of yourself. We can try and make your pictures look better (no charge). Today's technology allows anyone with a decent digital camera to take very nice pictures. We can assist you in getting better pictures if you need help or suggestions. Turn on all lights to make the setting as bright as possible, and change your digital camera settings to take the highest quality photos at the highest resolution. Then send those photos to us in your Manage Photos section, even if the file sizes are very large.
9. Where do I go to sign up?Honestly, none is better than the other. The most important thing is that you are in a category that fits you the best. This will minimize pointless phone calls and e-mails. The "VIP" category gets alot of attention, so if you would like to get more traffic to your listing or website, we recommend you look into a VIP Website Package.
10. What will my listing look like?To signup and add your listing and website, click on the "Place an Ad" link at the top right. It only takes minutes, and anyone without computer experience can do it. We worked very hard to make the process simple for you.
11. What's a sub-domain?We have 2 different looks available: an enhanced version of a traditional 1-page ad, and a fully-featured, custom, professionally designed website. Click on any ad to see how the listing looks like.
12. I already have a domain name. Can I forward it to my listing or sub-domain?A sub-domain can be accessed by your website visitors like this: http://yourname.cuties-guide.com. We make your listing a sub-domain so it is shorter and easier to remember - not to mention it looks more professional when you are showing your listing to a potential client.
13. If I am traveling, can you put my listing in another city?Yes. We can setup your account and domain name (www.yourname.com) to work with your Cuties listing. Please contact us to set this up.
Definitely. Contact us to be listed temporarily in another city, for free up to 14 days at a time.
Billing & Payment
1. Is it really free for 7 days?2. Do I need to give my credit card when I sign up?Yes. We let every provider try our advertising directory and tools for free, with no risk or payment.
3. What payment options do you offer?No. Only after the free trial period, if you are completely satisfied with our website, we can offer multiple methods of payment such as Credit Cards, Money Order, Certified Check and Western Union.
4. How do I know when my payment is due?You can pay by Credit Card, Money Order, Certified Check or Western Union. After you have signed up you will see full instructions on how to submit payment.
5. Will I receive a notice that my payment is due?You can log in to our website and click on "Billing & Payments" on the top right corner. Our system will also send you notices when the payment due date approaches.
6. How much does it cost to advertise on Cuties?Details are available in the "Billing & Payments" section after you have logged in to our website.
7. How much do changes cost?We offer several packages depending on your requirements. Please visit our Comparison Chart for details.
Changes to your listing or website's content costs NOTHING. Other service provider directories only offer you a limited number of changes each month. You can do all the changes yourself, or get us to make it. No matter which way you go, it doesn't cost you a penny.
Manage your Listing
1. Can I change my website design?2. Can you make a custom template or design?Absolutely. You can change your professional website design at any time, and the change is immediate. You may have to wait up to 48 hours for the header image to be replaced with a custom, enhanced version of one of your own images though.
3. Can Cuties make my website look like my current one?Yes we can, but it's not free. We can work with you to make your custom website layout.
4. Can I change my photos?Yes. If you currently already have a website, we can take the design and make it work with our system... at no cost to you! Then you will be able to take advantage of the features of Cuties Guide, such as having many new sections available on your website and being able to update them instantly.
5. How many photos can I have?Yes. You have full control of your photos. With our easy photo management software, you can add/remove photos in seconds, and changes are immediate. We will also do professional digital enhancements on your photos for free as well.
6. How long do I have to wait for my photos to be professionally censored or enhanced?It varies on your package. Packages range from 20 to 40+ photos. Cuties Guide by far offers you the most number of photos available. We know your clients love photos.
7. Can I make changes to my listing or website?When you require professional editing by our graphics designers, your photo changes may take up to 48 hours - but it's usually within a few hours. We strive to have every picture request done as soon as possible. Your photos will not be displayed to the public until the changes have been completed by our professionals.
8. Can you help me make changes to my listing or website? I still don't feel comfortable doing it.Absolutely. You can instantly edit every aspect of your listing and website all by yourself using our online software.
9. Can I add client reviews?Absolutely. Simply contact us once you have logged in and let us know what changes you would like.
10. What's a blog?Yes, you will need to add them yourself. We opted for this due to the high number of fake reviews being added by website visitors and other service providers.
11. What happens when I disable a photo?A blog is an online journal or diary, and you can post entries into it like a real journal. It is a way to intrigue your website browsers and offer them a personal touch. Updating your blog makes people come back and see what's new.
12. How many mailing list members can I have?If you disable your photo, it will not be shown on your listing or website. You are still able to see it in your control panel, but your website visitors will not.
13. Can my members see each other's e-mail addresses?As many as you want - we do not limit this.
14. Can I delete mailing list members?No. Each e-mail is sent individually and only contains your e-mail address and the receivers. Therefore, your list members cannot see each other's email addresses.
15. What tips do you have for taking a good photo?Yes you can. When you click on your list in the Mailing List section of your control panel, you will be able to see a popup window with all your active mailing list members. Find the e-mail you would like to remove and click on "Delete".
Make the room as bright as possible. Change your camera's settings to take the photo in the highest quality and at the highest resolution. When you upload your photo to us and you want professional enhancements, upload the biggest original file you have. Don't worry if the file size is large - the bigger the file size, the better we can enhance your photo.
