ElderCarelink, is the nation’s leading provider of qualified lead generation services within the eldercare industry. We assist families in finding a multitude of senior services, including assisted living, nursing homes, adult day care, private duty nursing, care management and homecare in all 50 states. More about finding eldercare assistance or joining our network of providers can be found at www.eldercarelink.com In August 2007 ElderCarelink formally launched a brand new directory service for families in search of eldercare, and it’s called the ElderCarelinkDirectory. This free “self-service” directory is now available on-line to all ElderCarelink visitors, and offers a wonderful complement to our needs survey by allowing users to conduct their own provider searches within a specific geographic area.

What is the ElderCarelinkDirectory?

It’s an on-line directory tool – free to consumers - that features listings for over 50,000 eldercare providers and senior businesses across the United States. The searchable directory allows consumers to perform their own searches of provider listings within a specified geographic area. Providers are eligible for a free listing (i.e., company name, address and phone), however, you have the ability to enhance that listing to include a wide range of additional features such as: links to your web-site, photos / pictures, marketing information, contact forms, maps and more.

As an eldercare provider, how do I create a Listing for my services?

Simply, complete the contact form on the “Add a Provider Listing” page and click submit. An ElderCarelink representative will then contact you to assist you in selecting the best program for your needs. There is no obligation to join and – at a minimum - all licensed providers are eligible for the free listing which includes your address and phone number.

Why Should You Consider an Enhanced Listing?

Enhanced listings have several advantages over the basic listings. First of all, they all include direct links back to your website. Second, paid listings are featured more frequently and will appear above the free listings. They are presented in the following order: Showcase, Premium, Basic and Free. Finally, they have added features (e.g., descriptions, contact forms, pictures, and maps) that improve your visibility with consumers.

Do I have to be a member of the ElderCarelink Lead Program to be listed in the Directory?

No – you can participate in the directory even if you are NOT an active member of the ElderCarelink program. As an added bonus, if you are an active member of the lead program – or if you join the ElderCarelink network - then you are eligible for preferred pricing in the directory.

How much does it Cost?

A simple listing of your company is FREE, but for less than 30 cents per day you can enhance that listing to drive more traffic to your site. Enhanced packages range from $99.00 per year to $299.00 per year per account. If you are also participating in the ElderCarelink lead program you are eligible for discounts of up to $100 per year.
