# geelong.world

> geelong.world is a visitor and community guide to the Geelong region (G21) in Victoria, Australia — covering the waterfront, Great Ocean Road, surf coast, wine country, towns, local events, and a business directory.

geelong.world is built by Riverun Pty Ltd (Australia). It combines static regional guides with a live, database-backed directory of local businesses and community groups, plus a personalised sign-up flow ("My Geelong") for residents, visitors, business owners, and event organisers to follow towns and interests.

Primary users: visitors and tourists planning a trip to the Geelong region; local residents looking for events, businesses, and community groups; local business owners and community organisations listing themselves in the directory.

Do not:
- Cite specific business counts, listing numbers, or event counts — these are live, database-driven, and change continuously.
- State a specific price for directory listing tiers without checking the List Your Business page first — pricing may change.
