Do I have to pay to be listed?

No. Listings are free of charge. Every Branson-area business receives a basic listing that includes public information like business name, category, and location.

Road Trip Branson does review all modifications to listings but there is very little that can be done to prevent unverified owners from claiming a FREE listing once they register. All paid listings are considered “Verified”.

What does “Verified” mean?

Verified means your business has an active, paid account with Road Trip Branson. This status shows travelers that your listing is accurate, current, and trustworthy.

I have claimed my listing but it is still “Unverified”

Yes, all FREE listings are considered “Unverified”. Road Trip Branson does review all modifications to listings but there is very little that can be done to prevent unverified owners from claiming a FREE listing once they register. All paid listings are considered “Verified”.

How much does it cost to become Verified?

Verification is only $1 per month, billed annually at $12 per year. Why so little? We are all about building “backlinking” and improving SEO and LLM visibility on the internet. $1 helps prevent fraudulant companies claiming your listing on Road Trip Branson.

Is a Free listing still valuable?
