Q: How customizable is it?
Hello. Great product. Good to see you back on AppSumo. Here's my question: how editable is it? Can I offer free memberships if users vote on businesses for example? They vote quarterly for their favorite business to keep their membership/access to the site. Also, do you have a way of uploading Google sheets for listings? I have my current client's info in that format. Thank you.

🔧 Customization & Voting-Style Access
BD sites include general user accounts, which can perform actions like saving or bookmarking favorites. Many site owners use this as a simple “up-vote” style interaction by adjusting the wording and labels (for example, “Save,” “Favorite,” or “Vote”). You can then review activity and manage access or memberships based on your own criteria.
🔐 Membership Control
You can offer free or paid memberships and control what users can access by membership level. Pages, features, and content can be restricted or opened up as needed.
📊 Importing Listings
Yes — you can bulk import listings using CSV files, which makes it easy to upload data from Google Sheets.
Overall, BD gives you flexible building blocks that let you shape the experience without over-engineering things, while keeping everything reliable and easy to manage.
