How it is built
One application
Every domain in the network runs the same application. Nothing is cloned per state.
One shared record set
Businesses, locations, categories, information, offers, events and reviews exist once.
The hostname decides
The address a visitor arrives on determines which state, scope and branding load.
State data stays isolated
A state surface shows only its own geography and records. No cross-state leakage.
50 states. 50 digital surfaces. One connected system.
50 state domains run from this one system, each showing only its own state.
