Cairns

Sites listed under the Cairns locality belong to businesses, organisations and individuals with a physical location within the locality or are exclusively about the locality. Please note that this is not the only locality listed under within the Cairns Regional Council area. Please see Cairns Regional Council Localities for a list of other areas. For sites with multiple locations or information that cross locality boundaries, please see the next level up: for multiple locations within Cairns Regional Council area: Cairns Regional Council; for multiple locations within Northern Queensland across shire/city boundaries: Far North Region; for state-wide locations: Queensland.

Please read these instructions carefully to decide the most appropriate category to submit your website to. Submitting to an incorrect category may delay your listing. To submit to any category under the Cairns locality your address must be physically located within the locality or the content should be more or less exclusively about the locality. Please note that if your site covers more than one locality you should submit to the next level up - for multiple locations within Cairns Regional Council area: Cairns Regional Council; for multiple locations within Northern Queensland across shire/city boundaries: Far North Region; for state-wide locations: Queensland. Except in exceptional circumstances, you are permitted only one listing in the Regional branch of the ODP although you may submit your site to an appropriate topical category too. Please read the ODP Guidelines before submitting particularly as regards the wording of your submission. Note that using a different or disguised URL in an attempt to gain a second listing is not permitted and may ultimately affect your primary listing.

It is not intended for tour or dive trip operators offering sports-related activities - such sites should be submitted under Tour Operators. Failure to do so may delay review and listing of your site. If you offer a single activity aimed at tourists, you might also consider submitting to Attractions as an alternative.

Please note no site should be submitted to more than one category within the Cairns locality, although there is no bar to submitting suitable sites for a second entry under an appropriate sub-category within the dmoz Recreation branch of the Directory. Submitting a site with a different URL in an attempt to obtain a second listing within the Cairns locality will result in removal of the second site and may in some instances affect the listing of the first site.
