Brisbane Massage Guide

Are you the same guy (South Brisbane) who did this a year or so ago or someone different?
A lot of us are gunshy about using a resource that may or may not disappear overnight with no explanation

No that's not me. I know a couple shop owners and they loved oz massage map but didn't know what happened when it just disappeared with no explanation. So I thought I would give it a go and see if I can add some extra features to make it better (if possible).

I did read a lot of the old posts about it and everyone loved that website. I definitely will give this a good go.

Thanks for the explanation.
You need to publicise this better. A lot of shops have their own websites now so won’t be as willing to share and may send cease and desist messages.
It sounds like it’s a little hobby for you so far and the intent may be to monetise. Think thats what the last guy was working on before its abrupt end.

Some shop owners are very underhanded at rattling or destroying their competition (see Touch Montague). The law isn’t a concern when they operate outside it anyway. As most organised criminals are want to do, they are armed with legal threats and lawyers at their disposal.

This could be a bumpy ride if you are game. If at the first sign of heat you pack up shop, no one will be surprised.

Thanks for that. Yes I'm trying to get it out there more, need to spend more time publicizing it. I don't know the full story of oz massage map but one of the owners said that a family situation came up and he didn't want to do it anymore. But who knows.

Thanks for the warning. The few owners I've spoken to love the concept, and talk to me about how on Locanto you have to pay just to have the phone number so having something like the site is good for them. I'm working with one shop where I built them a piece of software that is already saving them time and money. I'm working on a suite of digital products for them that they estimate with save them thousands of $$ a week. I'd really love to work with the shops, I think there's enough room for them all. Plus the cream will always rise to the top.

But yeah, I'll just keep trucking along and try provide a great resource for punters and shops. The good thing so far is users that visit the site are using all the features. The main ones being used is the call / directions and websites button. So people clicking through to the website of the shop is being used multiple time every day.

Anyways I'm not sure what the future brings but hopefully I can build this site (along with the shops) to make it awesome for everyone.
