New category and a bit of a clean up

I’ve made a few minor changes to Kent Index. We have a new listings category, Things to see and do, under which I have grouped a few other related categories. Please let me know how you get on with this new set-up.

I have also begun adding useful information such as how to report potholes, places to visit, and that sort of thing.

Finally, I have had a bit of a sweep for spam. My criteria for spam were any listings that were all of the following:

• Clearly in an inaccurate category
• Under 100 views
• Not remotely tied to Kent
• Written (badly) as an article
• Added no value for people browsing the listings

This way, I could leave the fun and silly listings that people seem to enjoy.

One final thing, the business profile system is currently down. I’m working on fixing it.
