Our Off-West End Directory is now live!
The directory will be promoted:
- through links on our website
- The directory will be part of our FREE London Theatre APP (8,000 downloads since September 2011)
- Each Off-West End show listing will be published to Twitter 3,500+ followers, Facebook, MySpace, Social Network sites and to our London Theatre Mobile Phone APP
- There will be backlinks to each Off-West End venue’s website, with whatever venue/show information you would like to place in the listing including booking link, telephone number, Box Office, venue address etc
There is zero cost to Off-West End venues and shows
The ONLY thing that we ask and it is a prerequisite for the free listing; is that you provide a link to our website homepage. (where there are links to the Free London Theatre APP and to the Off-West End Directory) The code for linking back to us is <a href=”http://www.lastminutetheatretickets.com”>London Theatre Tickets</a>
The Directory is shown here: http://www.lastminutetheatretickets.com/off-west-end/

Add listings
You have THREE ways in which you can add content:
a) You can add your Theatre Name and details about your theatre: Theatre name, address, website url, Box Office telephone number etc (least work – least reward)
b) You can add your website details and include all show information in ONE listing and update when you need to
c) You can add a new listing for each of the shows at your venue and delete them when the shows have finished their run (this will take more time but more people will see your listings)
Left Hand column “Listings” “Add New Listing”
The Top Line is the title and it is ESSENTIAL that for each listing you enter the name of your theatre first: For example:- The London Theatre: Merry Poppins Comes To Town :- This means all theatres are listed alphabetically
Those of you that have used WordPress before –
the large box is where you enter your content
Right Hand side tick the “Off-West End” category
Once you have entered your content there are boxes below:
Data Tab: enter your website details
Map Location: enter your postcode (ONLY the postcode – this shows the location of your theatre on a map)
Bottom of screen is Excerpt: where you can add an excerpt about the show… (or about your theatre)
The “Images Tab” – adds a thumbnail to your listing – just upload and then far right “Save draft” and Preview
When you are ready to publish – Left-click Publish button!
It might seem complicated at first but it really isn’t.
IF you have any problems at all then please let me know as I will be more than happy to help!
