About.Us.
How we work
Run by WestonSuperMare.org - your guide to Weston-super-Mare, and how we keep it honest.
Who runs this site
WestonSuperMare.org is a community guide owned and run by Weston-Super-Mare Ltd. It is not run by, or connected to, any council. If we promote a business we have a connection with, we say so on that listing.
How we choose and check information
- Facts like prices, parking charges and dog rules come from official sources, with a link and the date we checked.
- When we don't know something - a start time, a venue, opening hours - we say so rather than guess.
- Events imported automatically keep their source link. If a source changes, the event is flagged for a person to review, so our corrections aren't overwritten.
- Weather and tides come from Open-Meteo forecasts and models. They're for planning a day out, not for navigation.
- We don't publish ratings or reviews, and we never invent them.
What our labels mean
- Details confirmed by the business
- The business claimed its listing and we checked they're with the business. It confirms the details they gave us, not every word on the page.
- Details from the business's own website
- We copied facts from the business's official site. They may have changed since - check before you go.
- Unclaimed listing
- We list the place because people look for it. Contact details and hours haven't been confirmed.
- No opening hours shown
- We don't hold reliable hours, so we leave them off and never show "Open now" - check the business's own page.
- ✔ Checked
- Someone at WestonSuperMare.org checked the event against its source on the date shown. Automatically imported events are never described as checked.
- Source
- Where an event or fact came from. Imported events keep a link to the original.
- Sponsored / Partner
- Paid promotion. Always labelled, rotated so nobody holds first place, and kept separate from our guide picks.
- Illustrative photo
- A picture that shows the kind of thing, not the actual event or place.
- Idea / Any day
- A suggestion of somewhere to go, not a dated event.
- News brief
- A short summary pointing to the original publisher's story. We don't write full news stories from automated sources.
Community posts
Only approved, verified accounts can post, and every post is checked before it goes live. Comments are switched off on purpose - members can react, vote in polls and sign petitions. Posts from the "Community Desk" are written by us. See our community rules.
Advertising
Listings are free. Businesses can pay for extra visibility, which is always labelled. Paying never buys a place in our guides or changes what we say. Advertising options.
