Industry directories and company discovery

Browse the industry index

Open /network/industries for the sector index. Each industry has a landing page at /network/industries/[slug] that lists relevant published companies. Empty industry pages may be noindex; prefer sectors that already have published listings when you are evaluating demand.

Discover companies by sector

• Use /network/companies with industry filters and search to shortlist partners.
• Sort by boost, newest, or name when comparing visibility and recency.
• Open a company showcase for products, services, culture, and social proof before messaging.
• Cross-check catalog directories /network/products and /network/services with the same industry filter.

Assign industry on your profile

During /network/onboarding or in showcase profile settings, set the industry that best matches how buyers search. This controls placement on /network/industries/[slug] and improves filter matches on /network/companies, /network/products, and /network/services. Pick one primary sector rather than vague labels that dilute discovery.

Pro and boost spotlighting

Boosted and Network Pro companies are spotlighted on industry landings and in sorted directory results. Target the industry slot from /network/showcase/boost when a sector campaign matters more than a generic hub placement. Pair boosts with accurate SEO fields on /network/showcase/seo so landing traffic converts to profile views.

From hub to industry deep dive

1. Start at /network for featured companies and industry shortcuts.
2. Open /network/industries, then a specific /network/industries/[slug].
3. Compare candidates on /network/companies with the same industry filter.
4. Validate offerings on /network/products or /network/services before outreach.

Tips for publishers

After changing industry, re-check /network/industries/[slug] and your row on /network/companies in a signed-out browser. Update catalog item industries if offerings span multiple sectors—visitors often enter through product filters first.
