The Verified DeLand Local badge
2026 edition · re-issued each year
Who may use it
Any business currently listed on a DeLand Local category page may display the badge on its website, social profiles, or storefront. That is the whole requirement. There is no fee, no membership, and no tier. If a business leaves our listings at a re-verification pass, we ask that the badge come down with it.
The badge is year-stamped. When we re-verify a category, listed businesses get the new year’s badge, so the mark always reflects a current check rather than an old one.
Add it to your website
Copy the snippet for your category and paste it into your site’s HTML, footer, or page builder’s embed block. It links to the category page where your verification lives, so your customers can see exactly what the badge means.

</a>What the badge is not
The badge is not an endorsement ranking and it is not for sale. It does not say a business is our number one pick; it says the business passed the same verification every listed business passes. Rankings on this site move only when the underlying data moves, and no business can pay to change either its ranking or its badge. Questions, or a badge being used by a business we don’t list?
