location:

. . . a place shown on a map; a geography pointed out and described in general or specifically by marked boundaries; a locale; a site; an identity, for example, in an atlas or on a plan or schematic. Brainy Quote has more definition of location in general.

As used throughout .network websites the meaning of location is typically that of a place of interest . . . where people live, work, and share things in common (source of quote) along with real property available for its prospects. As places of interest, locations in The Network specifically draw the attention of certain participants in its mission that others (their resource and service providers) seek to work with as prospects.

Locations listed in the .network Global Registry of Contacts are places seeking enterprise and economic development or others places of interest that are in need of economic development opportunities or appear to have what it takes to accommodate them.

search for locations that are places of interest:

The definition of locations at the top of this page is framed around the type of enterprise development that leads to economic development. The process of site selection is a component of enterprise development entirely focused on searching for locations.

Site selectors can use the Global Registry of Contacts to search for information about places of interest. The GRC is a contact directory that lists location data suppliers. It is not, however, the only site selection resource for gathering information about locations as a .network user. We (who we are) provide links to whatever useful free access directories online that we learn about because our aim is to provide comprehensive mission support.

In the spirit of our commitment to provide comprehensive site selection support as it relates to searches for locations and location data suppliers we suggest the following search terms (in italics) with which to Google the Web. Replace the word place with the location identity of a place of interest to you. In the event that use of a suggestion doesn't produce anything of value about location you search for, send us an email and we will provide the free service of helping you avoid the search dead end.

Do not use the italicized suggestions to search the .network Global Registry of Contacts. Instead, simply search for a location. If you search the GRC for a location but do not find it listed, or if you do find it but there is no link for contacting a location data supplier, send us an email and we will provide the free service of helping you avoid the search dead end.
