Unleash the Power of Flexible Pricing

Offering diverse pricing plans is key to attracting a wide range of listers. LocationDirectory Pricing Manager empowers you to craft plans that meet different budgets and requirements. Tailor each plan with customizable features to maximize appeal.

You can adjust the listing duration, such as offering monthly, quarterly, or annual options. Define the number of images allowed per listing. Provide options for featured listings to increase visibility. Control which categories are included in each plan. This ensures listers only pay for what they need.

Differentiation through pricing attracts more listers. Smaller businesses might prefer a basic plan with limited features. Larger organizations could opt for a premium plan with maximum exposure. Offering flexible options maximizes your directory’s revenue potential.

To create a new pricing plan, navigate to the plugin’s settings. Select ‘Pricing Plans’ and click ‘Add New’. Enter a descriptive name for your plan. Configure the listing duration, image limits, and featured listing options. Assign the appropriate categories. Save your new pricing plan to make it available to your listers.

Monetize Your Directory with Customizable Features

Listing features are key to a successful directory monetization strategy. LocationDirectory Pricing Manager lets you tailor each plan with unique selling points. Think enhanced descriptions, priority in search results, and newsletter inclusion. These attributes provide tangible value. They incentivize listers to upgrade to gain maximum exposure. More features equal more value for your users. This also increases revenue for you.

To assign features, navigate to the Pricing Plans section. Select the plan you want to modify. Then, choose the specific features you want to include. For instance, a ‘Premium’ plan might offer priority placement and enhanced description options. A basic plan may have fewer options. Save your changes to activate the features for that specific plan. Encourage upgrades by clearly demonstrating the added value of each tier.

Streamline the Listing Submission Process

The pricing plan manager greatly simplifies listing submissions. It benefits both directory owners and those submitting listings. The plugin seamlessly integrates with the front-end submission form. Listers can easily choose a pricing plan during the submission process. They can then pay directly through the integrated system. No more manual invoicing or complicated payment processing is required. This creates a smoother experience for everyone.

Automated features save significant time. Automatic listing expiration handles deactivation effortlessly. The system sends renewal reminders before a listing expires. This ensures listings stay active and revenue streams continue. Owners no longer need to track expiration dates manually. Listers receive timely prompts to renew, preventing unexpected listing removals. This automation reduces administrative burdens for site owners. It also maintains a current and comprehensive directory for users.

Configuration involves entering API keys and other credentials provided by your chosen payment gateway within the plugin settings. Consult the payment gateway’s documentation for specific requirements. Offering multiple payment options can significantly increase conversion rates. Customers appreciate the flexibility of using their preferred method.

If you encounter issues, first verify that your API keys are correct and active. Check your payment gateway’s status page for any reported outages. Clear your website cache and browser cookies.

Tracking and analyzing pricing plan performance is crucial. It reveals valuable insights. Understand which plans resonate with users. Identify features that justify premium pricing. See how pricing affects overall directory revenue. The location directory solution’s Pricing Manager offers the tools to monitor these key performance indicators.

Coupons and special offers are excellent promotional tools. They attract new users and incentivize upgrades. Create targeted campaigns based on user behavior.
