You can see your messages and decide. Our membership fee is very low at ($19.95/mo). It's simple, risk free, and no credit card is required.

How easy is it to create my profile?

Your profile can be up in minutes! In addition to your complete practice information, photo, and map, your profile can display professional and news articles, blog posts, discounts/offers, events (e.g. workshops, seminars), and recommendations. And these features are extremely easy to use.

Why should I create a profile?

Your profile is a powerful marketing tool to grow your practice. Individual web sites are often missed by Google and other search engines, but our profiles are optimized to get found in Google and Bing, and clients will search directly on our site and find you. You improve your Google ranking, gain powerful marketing, and get contacts from potential clients.

How many client referrals will I get?

Our members receive an average of three referrals per month (this does not include phone calls). Professional members appear first in searches and get more referrals than Standard members. Of course, referrals depend on your location, the competition in your area, and the quality of your profile. The good news is that just one good referral per year will cover the cost of our very low membership fee ($19.95/mo.), and it's very likely, if you optimize your profile, that you will receive multiple referrals. We are glad to help our members with advice to make their profiles more effective. When you succeed, we succeed.

Potential clients can contact you from your profile in several ways, including:
• Phone
• Email (your email address will remain confidential)
• Out-clicking to your professional website (if you have one)

I would like to list my organization rather than myself. Can I do this?

When you sign up you can choose to list either your name or your practice name as the primary display on your profile.

I already have my own individual web site for my practice. Why should I create a profile on MassageNext?

Your web site may look great, but if no one sees it then it won't help your practice. Thousands of people visit us to find help, so if you're listed you can get referrals.

I'm worried about the privacy of my email address - will you keep it private?

We take privacy seriously and will never share or sell your email address.

Will my email address be visible on my profile?

No, your email will not be visible on your profile. Clients can contact you by using the Send Message link on your profile. Our system then privately forwards the client's message to your email address. And of course, clients can always call you.

How long does it take for my profile to be approved?

Your profile will be active immediately when you click the link in your Activation email. However, to protect clients we review our profiles for accuracy, quality, and legitimacy and remove profiles that do not conform to professional standards. Profiles may take up to up to 24 hours to be approved during peak times, weekends and holidays.

Why didn't I receive my activation email?

Your email provider may have moved your Activation email into your Spam or Bulk Items folder. Please check your Spam and Bulk Items folders and mark emails from us as "Not Spam." If you did not receive your activation email, please contact us.

What is the Recommendations feature?

If you enable the Recommendations feature, which is optional, your profile can display recommendations, similar to LinkedIn, that build your web presence and increase your reputation. You must approve all recommendations before they display on your profile and you can easily delete any recommendations.
