We are publishing a digital magazine, "The Built Environment", in New Mexico. It's a commercial construction and real estate magazine. I haven't seen anything like it and I've been trying to buy the domain but not having any luck. Can we get our magazine listed here?
If you wish to add it to this list, please follow the format that has been used with the other resources here.
