Tango Schools and organisations around Australia are invited to promote their school on the Australian Tango School Directory.

Tango schools: Your entry is under your control. You don't have to submit changes or additions to a third party - you create your own entry and you add to it or edit it time you like. We are charging a nominal fee to help cover the costs of creating the Directory and keep the website up to date.  View a sample entry for Santa's Tango School (Click on the school title)

Step 1:

Navigate to the Tango School Directory front page.

Log in Using the right menu login form (see screenshot below).

N.B If you haven't opened an account yet, hit the register button, and submit the form. Once this form has been submitted you will receive a confirmation email, click the supplied return link and your membership will be activated.

Step 2 - creating your entry

Now you have logged in the Community Login form in the top right corner will say "Hi, Your User Name" and the grey button will say ""Logout" instead of "Login".

Go to the top of the Directory page and click ''Add Entry"" (see screenshot below). Now you will see the online Add New Entry Form.

Simply fill in all the fields you would like in your entry, including the required contact details fields.Some require a small fee.

Adding your Website URL is an additional option attracts a small extra fee. You may decide not to use this as your school is no doubt already on the Links page. 

Once you've finished this section you can add images - see Step 3

Step 3 - adding images

Now you can add images of your classes, your school, venues, teachers. Before you start be sure the images you want to use are 72 DPI (dots per inch), no larger than 600 pixels wide and saved as a .jpeg.

Click the browse button which will prompt you to find the images on your computer (or wherever you have them stored - for example CD, external hard drive, or USB thumb drive...). When you have found your image, click OK or open.

You will see the field to the left of the browse button now contains the directory path info, add the image title and details and/or photo credits to the field image description.

Then click upload.

The field labelled icon allows you to upload a thumbnail image to your small details panel in the directory. You can choose to repeat the steps above with the same image - or you may choose to add your company logo.

Step 4 - adding information for Search Engines

This step is really important because it makes it so much easier for search engines - Google, Yahoo et al  - to find you. You don't have to do this but it is worth taking the extra few moments.

The fields called Meta Keywords and Meta Description need to be filled in. In Meta Keywords  you can add single words, phrases are even better. For example: tango classes Smallsville, Argentine tango Friday, tango class Saturday, tango championship winner.... In Meta Description describe your school in a short sentence.

Now choose Categories (see screenshot below). Decide which category your school belongs to and select the folder name. Then click the forward arrow to add it to the correct column. You can view subcategories by clicking on the +sign on the parent (main) folder. Your first category is free - additional categories attract a small fee.

You've almost finished! Read the terms page , tick the check box, add the security code information and click Send.

Step 5 - Confirmation, payment and approval

Your application has been submitted for approval and payment confirmation. Now you will see a breakdown of the costs of your entry. If you've chosen extra options these will be outlined clearly on this page, plus you will see the overall cost.

You can pay for your listing using online banking, by cheque or using Paypal. When you are paying using online banking please clearly note in the Payment refernce field of the online banking window your TSD number (this is indicated under the BSB number beginning with the word Reference - see screenshot below).
