AboutUsLogoNewSmaller.png

AboutUs is a wiki for and about businesses, organizations, blogs, forums, and really anything or anyone that has a website.

Think of us as the guide to websites (that you can also help build).

AboutUs aims to provide you with both an introduction to sites in the areas you care about as well as a way to share your knowledge of those websites. Currently, more than 9 million people visit AboutUs.org each month.

AboutUs domain pages can include a summary of the website as well as more text about it, relevant tags, its contact information, photos or logos, connections with related websites and more... all while linking directly to the website.

AboutUs dynamically creates pages from publicly accessible information on Web sites, like meta tags and whois information. Once built, the pages - like any wiki - are available to be edited by the company, users, or anyone who visits the site.

NY Times article about AboutUs.org

As a wiki, information on AboutUs pages can be added to and changed by clicking the edit pencil button... and we encourage you to do so.

Finding information - If you'd like to see what information we have on a given website domain or share your knowledge of it, simply search for the URL (like Example.com) in the Find! box above.

Sharing your knowledge - AboutUs is what it is today thanks to the people who edit and improve it. Please feel free to help build this guide to websites by using the many 'edit' buttons to do anything from fixing a spelling error to adding a paragraph of text or picture. (Click Help at the top left for various instructional pages).

What's happening at AboutUs

You guys have a user-friendly system that makes it easy to optimize listings. AboutUs is a really helpful resource and I've enjoyed learning more about the little tricks that make a page pop out at viewers.
