Reach the readers who need your expertise, before they decide
Before they buy property, relocate or do business abroad, readers come to Zagdim for information and answers.
Join the Zagdim Expert Network and create a dedicated profile that shows your expertise, services and local experience. When readers need professional help, the right requests have a way to reach your team.
Readers are already looking for professional help
Every day, readers come to Zagdim with specific questions about living, investing and doing business abroad.
From company setup, tax filing and bank accounts to buying and selling property, rental management and relocation, they need more than information. They need professionals and firms who understand the local system and can help them solve the problem.
Where readers are heading
Your expertise could be the next step they are looking for.
What you gain from joining the Zagdim Expert Network
Help readers understand your expertise
A dedicated expert profile brings together your firm’s background, the places you serve, your areas of expertise, typical cases and contact details.
Readers can see in one place what help you offer and whether your services fit their needs.
Build trust on a clear basis
Assessment marks for credential checks, professional verification and client recommendations help readers understand your background and service experience.
Each mark has its own review criteria, and none can be obtained by paying.
Connect with requests that match your expertise
When a reader comes to us with a specific service need, Zagdim first learns about their situation, clarifies the service required and gathers the essential details.
If the case fits your expertise, we introduce you to each other once the reader agrees.
You decide whether to take on each case, and agree the quote and service arrangements directly with the client.
Share your professional insight more widely
Partners may be invited to share local market insight, give expert comment, be interviewed or take part in features on services abroad.
Where appropriate, this content is published in English or Chinese, introducing your expertise to more readers.
All interviews, quotes and published content are decided independently by the Zagdim editorial team. Joining the network does not guarantee coverage.
See how an expert profile looks
A clear, credible expert profile gives readers a first understanding of your expertise and services before they get in touch.
Below are expert profiles from three countries and three service areas.
Every profile presents firm information, service scope and completed assessments in the same way, so readers can understand and compare.
From reader question to professional service
Zagdim does more than display expert information. When readers need further professional help, we help clarify what they need and connect them with the right partner.
A reader asks Zagdim about property, relocation, business or living abroad.
We confirm the need, location, timing and details for a quote.
We match on case type, expertise and location, and connect you once the reader agrees.
You talk to the client, quote and arrange the service. Taking the case is your call.
We follow up on the outcome and gather feedback from both sides.
What matters to us is the right match, not simply more referrals.
Professional trust, built on information that can be checked
We want readers to see more than a firm’s own description: they should also know which details have been checked.
Each expert profile carries three assessment marks, each reflecting a different aspect of your professional information.
Credential check
Confirming the firm and its credentials
We check company registration details and any professional licences or qualifications the business is legally required to hold.
Professional verification
A closer look at how you serve clients
We learn about your team’s service scope, professional experience, workflow, client communication and service arrangements.
Client recommendations
What clients say about your service
Clients you have served are invited to give feedback. Reviews are added to your profile only after we have checked them.
Each mark is assessed separately, and your profile clearly shows which have been completed. A check that has not been completed is never shown as passed.
As your professional details and client feedback build up, your profile can be updated, so readers see a fuller picture of your services.
Good expertise deserves to be known, and trust deserves a solid basis.
Four steps to your expert profile
The process is simple. We first get to know your firm and expertise, then confirm whether it is a good fit for the Zagdim Expert Network.
Apply
Share your firm’s basic details, the places you serve, your areas of expertise and contact details.
The initial application takes about 5 minutes.
Zagdim review
We check your company registration and professional credentials, and whether your services fit what readers need.
Whatever the outcome, we will let you know by email.
Complete your profile
Once you pass the initial review, we invite you to send the details for your full profile, including a team introduction, service details and professional information, and to confirm the partner agreement.
Confirm and go live
When your profile is ready, we send it to you to check.
You can request changes before it goes live. Once you confirm, your profile is published.
Our partnership principles
We aim to build a network where readers can look for help with confidence, and professionals want to take part for the long term.
Readers’ needs come first
Recommendations are based on fit: expertise, location, case requirements and client needs. Partners cannot pay to rank higher.
Editorial independence
Joining the network does not guarantee quotes, interviews or editorial recommendations. Topics and expert citations are decided independently by our editors.
Partners serve clients directly
Partners agree the specifics directly with clients, including scope, quotes, contracts, fees and delivery.
Terms made clear upfront
Clients should clearly understand the service scope, fees and related terms before any service begins.
Respect for reader privacy
We share only the reader details needed to handle a case, and only when the reader has agreed to the referral.
Ongoing attention to quality
We keep reviewing partners’ credentials, service record and client feedback, so profiles stay appropriate and credible.
Free to create, with transparent terms
There is no joining fee, listing fee or annual fee, and no exclusive agreement to sign.
You run your business as usual and can keep working with other platforms.
When a suitable reader request comes up, we first check whether you would like to take it on.
If a particular case involves a referral fee, it is discussed case by case and confirmed in writing before you work together. No fee arises without written agreement from both sides.
Readers who find professional help through Zagdim should never pay an extra referral fee as a result.
Questions
Who can apply for an expert profile?
We welcome individuals and firms working in international property, relocation, business and related living services who are legally entitled to operate and have relevant professional experience.
This includes law firms, accounting and tax firms, real estate companies, visa and immigration consultants, company formation and corporate service providers, and relocation and lifestyle service teams.
Requirements can differ by country and service category, and we review each application according to the nature of the business.
Will I definitely be accepted?
Not necessarily.
Every application is reviewed, including your firm’s background, professional qualifications, service scope and how well you fit readers’ needs.
We will let you know the outcome by email either way.
Is there a fee to create or maintain a profile?
No.
Creating and maintaining a Zagdim Expert Profile is free, with no annual or listing fee.
If a particular case involves a referral fee in future, it applies only after both sides agree in writing.
How many client referrals will I receive?
It depends on reader demand, the countries you serve, your field and how well cases fit.
We do not guarantee a set number of referrals, and we will not make unsuitable matches just to increase the count.
Can I decide whether to take on a case?
Yes.
When you receive the case details, you decide based on your service scope, team capacity and the case requirements.
You agree the quote and service arrangements directly with the client.
Is the partnership exclusive?
No.
Joining the Zagdim Expert Network does not affect your work with other firms, platforms or clients.
How are professional verification and client recommendations obtained?
Credential checks and professional verification are assessed against your firm details and service information.
Client recommendations come from clients you have served. You can share a review link with them; they submit feedback anonymously, and it may be added to your profile after review.
Each mark is reviewed separately and can never be obtained by paying.
Do partners need to work in English or Chinese?
Being able to communicate with clients in English or Chinese is preferred.
If your team mainly works in another language, let us know when you apply, and we can discuss suitable arrangements for the service needed.
Will joining give me article coverage or interviews?
Possibly, but it is not guaranteed.
Our editors decide independently, based on topic, reader needs and professional relevance, whether to invite partners to comment, be interviewed or take part in features.
Can I update my details after joining?
Yes.
If your service scope, team, professional qualifications or other key details change, contact Zagdim to request an update.
Can I leave if I no longer want to continue?
Yes, you can ask to leave at any time.
We will take down your public expert profile. Any unfinished cases or existing obligations are handled as both sides have agreed.
