About Us
We live right here in Longview, Texas. We are the truly local Local Directory. |
 Hi. My name is
Ruthanna, and my husband is Fox. I will be hosting you throughout the
pages of GotLongview.com, a local portal site with a bit of personal
touch. We live right here in Longview, Texas, so we actually care about
this community. This is what makes our site so very different from the
many so-called "local" guides and directories on the internet. We are
not a big corporate conglomerate, but simply a couple of East Texas
folks that decided our area needed a website like this.Last year, after becoming frustrated while searching for local information online, we set about to create a website that would make it easier to find things. There is actually a lot of local information on the web; however, it oftentimes gets lost among countless pages of search results. Beyond that, there are a number of directories online that claim to be local, but when you land on their site, you discover they're not local at all. It can be quite annoying. Plus, it's a major waste of time. Over the past year, we have been on a mission to find valid local websites with interesting information. We then set about putting it all together within the framework of an in-depth city guide and business directory. This site will be ever expanding as more people in our community become involved and share with us more information that we, in turn, can share back with you. And so, following a lot of planning, and incorporating the help of family and friends, we joined forces with a network of over 38,000 city guide sites that are all unique and locally run. And there began the Longview, Texas City Guide Site - GotLongview.com. * * * * * * * * * I am a Longview transplant. I originate from South Texas. But, my husband and his family have been here for many, many years - about four generations worth. I've been here 12 years. This area has been good to me, and I'd like to give a little something back. Our mission at GotLongview.com is two-fold: 1) to provide a quality, comprehensive website in which anyone can find information about Longview, and the surrounding East Texas area, and 2) to provide powerful, yet affordable marketing and advertising services for local business, service providers, and freelancers. Our desire is to enhance the community spirit by providing a means of communication that is not available through traditional sources. We hope you enjoy GotLongview.com! |
