What are category pages?
Category pages bring together classes around popular themes – such as sensory, fitness, or playgroups – allowing parents to browse based on their interests, or what they have enjoyed so far with their little ones.
Each category page displays a list of 10 relevant providers and their timetables, ordered by distance from the postcode the person is searching. There is one Featured Listing at the top, and nine others below. More Info / Book Now buttons drive straight to the class pages.
Tip: If there are more than 10 providers who are eligible to appear in the category, the system will prioritise Happity Members. Find out more about Membership here.

These pages tend to rank very highly on Google, averaging well over 50k clicks a month, so adding categories to your listings will help you reach more parents!
How to Add Categories
Add them to your activity description when creating new activities on your timetable. If you've already created your activities, you can edit them under Profile > Activities.
When you start typing, the field will provide you with a list of the available categories in our database.
You can add up to two categories from the list provided.
Make sure to choose relevant categories as we want to ensure you appear on the correct category pages.
If you need a category that's not in the current list, please select 'Other' and then insert what your preferred category would be. This will feed back to our product team, who will evaluate these on a regular basis.
