Create your profile and choose your category. Sign up and pick the category that best describes what you do — author, publisher, editor, bookseller, agent, book club, event organiser or more. Your category shapes what we ask you for and how people find you, so choose carefully. You can always add more listings later.

Add your services, experience and contact details.

Build your profile. Add your services, specialisms, experience, languages, genres, location and contact details — plus images and links. The more complete your profile, the easier it is for the right people to find you and get in touch.
Verify

Submit the required information and supporting evidence.

Not everyone gets listed. Depending on your category, we'll ask for supporting evidence — registration, credentials or references. This protects everyone using the directory. Once submitted, we review it and either approve your listing or tell you what's missing.

Why should I list my service on Thekgang?

It means you’ve been checked and approved for your category. That gives clients, collaborators and organisations confidence that you’ve met the standard – and it sets you apart from unverified listings.

They can contact you directly. No middleman, no waiting — just real conversations that can turn into bookings, collaborations, submissions or business.
