A UK business-to-business directory operated by Approved Business Ltd. Listing is organised as packages rather than a single free entry: a free package exists, but the operator attaches a twelve-month contract to it and places free listings below paid ones.
Domain Rating is a dated Ahrefs snapshot of domain authority. PetroHrys Score is an independent editorial assessment of the directory’s practical business value. They are separate measurements and are never combined. Domain Rating values are dated historical Ahrefs snapshots. Domain Rating is a dated historical measurement of the shared domain, not an assessment of this individual registry page. New measurements are not collected because the Research Center does not depend on mandatory authenticated APIs. Where several registries are published on one measured domain they repeat that domain’s single dated snapshot rather than each carrying a figure of its own. Domain Rating is a third-party metric produced by their respective providers, not by PetroHrys.com. Each recorded value carries its provider and the date it was measured, and describes the domain that was measured rather than one page on it. No source has been consulted for authority score, estimated traffic and referring domains, so they are not published for any record.
The operator is named consistently throughout its own terms as Approved Business Ltd, which sets out publication and licensing terms in its own name.
Every package, free included, is documented as carrying company name, address, phone number, quote form, review system and an admin console.
The tier structure is set out feature by feature, so what a free package withholds is visible before signing up rather than after.
The operator reserves an explicit editorial role over submitted material, which is a real moderation position rather than automatic publication.
Limitations
The free package carries a “12 month contract”. A free listing here is a term commitment, not a casual entry, and that is unusual enough to check before submitting.
A free listing is positioned last: the operator states it “Displays at the bottom of product and service pages”, with paid listings above it.
A website link is a paid feature. “Website backlink” appears in the Featured tier’s feature list and not in the free package, so no link benefit is documented for a free listing and none is asserted.
The operator also sells SEO, website design, email marketing, video production and social media services, so the directory sits inside a marketing-services business rather than standing alone.
Publication is discretionary and editable by the operator: it “may publish and make available to the public by any means any material that you submit … at their sole discretion and they shall be entitled to make additions or deletions to any such material prior to publication.”
Submitted material is licensed broadly: the terms take “a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual and worldwide licence to republish any material you submit”.
Creating a listing is confirmed; claiming an existing third-party listing is not documented, so no claim flow is asserted.
A review system is documented in every package, but whether a business can respond to reviews is not, and is not asserted.
A listing is a directory entry. It is not evidence that a business is solvent, currently trading, licensed, or checked beyond what the operator documents here.
No ranking, indexing, traffic or lead outcome is asserted. The operator markets outcomes; this record does not adopt them.
The operator states that publication of submitted material is at its sole discretion and that it may make additions or deletions before publication.
Best for
UK business-to-business suppliers wanting a categorised trade listing with an enquiry form.
Businesses comparing what a free directory package actually withholds, since the operator sets the tiers out feature by feature.
Not recommended for
Businesses unwilling to accept a twelve-month term on a free listing.
Anyone expecting a free listing to carry a link to their website. The operator lists that as a paid-tier feature.

Establishing required submission assets requires submitting a listing and observing the result. That has not been done for any directory in this dataset, so it is not published rather than estimated.

The PetroHrys Score is a first-party editorial assessment, not a third-party
authority metric. It is the weighted sum of the ten factors above, divided by ten, so the number
on this page is reproducible from the values shown. Each factor is scored from 0 to 10 by a human reviewer and weighted as shown. The definitions describe what was weighed, not a rubric: no threshold or formula maps a directory onto a value, and two reviewers could reach different numbers. The score is reproducible from the factors shown on every record, but it is an editorial judgement, not a measurement.
