Editorial standards

Independence

A business does not receive a higher rank by requesting inclusion. Sponsored placement, if introduced, will be clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial rankings.

Accuracy and attribution

We link to map listings and official venue pages so readers can verify current hours, directions and booking information. Third-party ratings are shown as changing reference points, never as ratings created by GoNearMe.

Balanced recommendations

A useful recommendation explains both who a place suits and what a visitor should consider. We do not remove relevant drawbacks merely because a business is highly rated.

AI-assisted work

Automation may assist with research organization, data normalization and first-draft structure. It does not replace the checks required for venue status, contact details, ranking logic, factual claims and useful differentiation.

Corrections

Material errors are reviewed promptly. See how to report an incorrect listing.
