One of the principles of zoodle is that whilst there is masses of valuable property information on the web, finding it can be a challenge and that is where zoodle can be a godsend!

We have built zoodle on a vast amount of information – possibly as much as 60 million pages. But we want to make zoodle the best source of property information. To do that we want to keep updating and adding new information, and this is where you can help us.

We created suburb profile page for each suburb in the country – there are around 1,600 of them although according to the official mapping database there are over 3,100 dwelling centers known as suburbs! To really make these pages rich and valuable for visitors we have a detailed summary of the suburb, what transport links are like, shopping, eating out and other snippets of local knowledge.

To see what I mean check out the profile for the biggest suburb in the country – Papatoetoe. This profile was written by Angela Signal who works for Barfoot & Thompson. Angela like many other real estate agents around the country have contributed to around 200 suburb profiles so far – we still have another 1,400 to go.

If you would like to help us write a suburb profile we would be delighted to have your support. Just find the suburb where you live or the one you would like to profile and if there is no profile there click the link to go to a page to complete a profile. In return for this contribution we will credit you with being the author and attribute the content with a link to your website.

So here for example is Paeroa – who wants to be world famous in NZ by writing a profile for the famous home of L&P!

Whilst we are sure that you will provide a rich and balance summary – we do wish to give your submission the once-over by our editors, for this reason your contribution will not be published live but may take a short while to appear – so go on have a go, you no doubt live in a suburb you know heaps about and would be keen to share with others.
