Helping UK businesses get found online
Yolist connects UK consumers with trusted local businesses — from sole traders in Cornwall to chains across England. Free to list, transparent pricing, no sales calls.
Our mission
Yolist connects UK consumers with trusted local businesses. We aggregate open data from Companies House, FSA hygiene ratings, and OS postcodes, and combine it with verified business-owner submissions and genuine customer reviews.
Our model is simple: a free listing for every business, paid tiers when you want to stand out, and a transparent lead marketplace for buyers who need quotes. We don't hide prices, don't lock you in, and don't make you call a salesperson.

Our story
Founded in 2024, Yolist was built by a team of UK-based developers frustrated with existing directory services that charge small businesses eye-watering monthly fees for basic visibility — or bury listings behind pay-to-play algorithms.
We started with a simple idea: every legitimate UK business deserves a free, accurate online presence. From there we built outward — adding review verification, lead routing, and AI-powered tools to help business owners compete with larger chains.
Today Yolist covers the British Isles — England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Ireland, and the Crown Dependencies — with a focus on helping independent businesses get the visibility they deserve.
What we stand for
Transparent pricing
Every plan is priced clearly on our pricing page. No hidden fees, no annual price hikes without notice.
Genuine reviews
We cross-reference reviews with booking records and remove anything that looks fake — protecting consumers and honest businesses alike.
No lock-in
Cancel from your dashboard at any time. Your free listing stays up regardless of whether you pay us anything.
