About DFWDB
DFWDB is a local guide to Dallas–Fort Worth: community pages, events, news, home and garden guides, a home services directory, and a neighbor marketplace.
Who runs DFWDB
DFWDB is run from Dallas–Fort Worth, Texas. To reach the people behind it, use the contact page.
What we cover
DFWDB has a page for each of 101 cities and suburbs across the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. Each community page pulls together local news, upcoming events, and directory listings for that place.
Where the content comes from
Guides, ideas, rankings, and some events are written or curated by DFWDB editors in our content system.
Event calendars and city announcements are imported from the public feeds of 43 city websites, 34 of which also publish news announcements. Items are credited to the city that published them.
Local news is read from the public feeds of 15 local news outlets. We show the headline and a short excerpt with the publication credited, and link to the original story. Where a story cannot be tied to a single community, it is shown metro-wide rather than guessed.
How the directory is maintained
The business directory is still being built. The listings you see today are sample entries used to develop and test the directory. They are not real businesses, and the phone numbers on them are fictional. Please do not rely on them.
Real listings will be imported from public business data, checked to confirm the business website resolves and the business is still operating, and then marked Verified with the date it was last checked. A listing without that mark has not been checked.
Paid placements
Every listing gets a basic entry at no charge. Businesses can pay for an Enhanced or Featured placement, which gives them more space on the page and a position above the standard results. Placement is priced per category and community.
A paid placement buys position, not endorsement. DFWDB does not currently publish a vetting or licensing review of listed businesses, so please check licensing, insurance, and references yourself before you hire anyone.
