How to Search in Golden Pages Online?

In the Golden Pages Online you will find the names, addresses and telephone numbers of thousands of Bulgarian companies offering products and services to businesses and households.

Just as in our print directory, companies are grouped in ‘classifications’ according to their activity and the type of product or service they offer. However, searching the online directory is different.

Search

As a user you can key in your search criteria by using the search boxes on the home page. You can specify the type of product, service or brand that you are looking for as well as the location where you would like to find a supplier i.e. the name of the town, city or village.

Golden Pages - search for products/services

Users can also search by using a company name in cases when they are looking for a specific business.

Our search engine is available in both Bulgarian and English. In order to get the best results, our advice is:

  • when searching in the Bulgarian version - please use Bulgarian words written in Cyrillic unless you are searching for a brand or company name that you know is only spelled in Latin characters. If you use Latin characters to spell Bulgarian words, we cannot guarantee that the Search Engine will recognize what you are looking for.
  • when searching in the English version - please use English words and/or brand and company names spelled using Latin characters.
Search by Browsing 

You can search directly for a classification by clicking on the ‘See all classifications in alphabetical order’ link on the Home Page. Alternatively you can use the ‘Selected Categories’ list.

selected categories

A Category includes a number of classifications and its title summarizes the type of products/services offered by the businesses in the different classifications. E.g. ‘Computers and Internet’ or ‘Institutions and Organizations’

  • Select a Category that is most relevant to the product or service that you are searching for. Click on this Category and you will be taken to a page containing all the classifications within in, which in turn are divided into ‘Sectors’ i.e. sub-categories. Using the above example, the ‘Institutions and Organizations’ contains 21 classifications in 2 sectors:
    • Insurance
    • Public and Social Services
  • Click on the relevant classification and you will go to a page containing all the locations where we have advertisers and listed companies under this particular classification.

Choose a classification

  • Click on the desired location and a Search results page will be presented giving you advertisers and businesses with free listings for this particular classification in the area of your choice. Every search can give a maximum of 50 results arranged in random order (not alphabetically). If we have more than 50 advertisers and/or free listings in any classification, each one of them has equal chance of being displayed in the search results pages. Advertisers are always displayed above free listings.
