The Golf Club Directory

The Golf Club Directory at www.thegolfclubdirectory.com is a unique web site, designed in the form of an on-line page turning publication, that enables Golf Clubs to advertise their golf course and facilities using a double page spread of images and information.

If your course or club has any specific features you want people to know about, they can find it by entering a search. If they click on the postcode in any UK entry, they are instantly connected to MultiMap.com so they can see where a specific course is situated. If they want to book, it links to your web site or secure booking form. If they want to print information about a specific course, they can do so, or they can download the entire web site “publication” as a PDF.

The web site “publication” is updated every month to include new entries from golf clubs, or to allow existing entries to be updated.

Main Features and Benefits:

• 2 page spread entry for your golf club consisting of  up to 4 images [one of which is a full page], description of the course, introduction to the club, contact details [with links to main web site or secure booking form], and link from postcode to MultiMap.com
• The unique page turning format can be searched by Google and other leading search engines.
• It’s environmentally friendly. Readers can simply print off the pages they are interested in, or they can download the entire publication as a PDF.
• It can be shared with friends/colleagues.
• It includes a zoom facility to see clear detail on each page.
• It includes a content overview.
• The web site itself is fully searchable so any words used in an entry will help it to be found and readers can “jump” to a specific page.
• New courses are added every month and existing entries can be updated every month.
