The publishing platform for communities

Publishing that’s built to be found - by Google and by AI.

Ur Next Door is a publishing platform where your writing is engineered to be discovered. Every long-form post you publish - cover image, galleries, tags and a real author byline - ships with the structured data, sitemaps and AI-crawler access that make it indexable by Google and citation-eligible in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude. And your writing never stands alone: around it sit Q&A, interest communities, professional profiles with a built-in CV, and real-time chat - one login, one identity.

Why Ur Next Door

A few things you won’t find bundled together anywhere else.

Built for publishing, not just posting

Write rich, long-form posts - cover image, swipeable image galleries, tags and a real author byline - each on a clean, canonical /posts/ URL. Every post is a first-class document with a home of its own and an audience around it, not a status update that scrolls away.

Discoverable by AI, not just Google

Every page ships schema.org structured data, a full sitemap hierarchy, and an llms.txt manifest with AI-crawlers allow-listed - so your community's knowledge is citation-eligible in ChatGPT, Perplexity and the next generation of search.

Four products, one login

Q&A, interest communities, a professional identity with a résumé, and a real-time messenger - unified under a single profile instead of five disconnected apps.

Branded community subdomains

Each community lives at its own address (yourtopic.urnextdoor.com) - a real front door, not a page buried three clicks deep.

Everything in the box

One platform, built around how communities actually share knowledge.

Written for readers. Structured for search engines. Open to AI. Every post ships with schema.org data, a sitemap entry, and an llms.txt + robots.txt that invite ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude to read and cite it - not a plugin, not an add-on, the default.

Publishing & blog

Write and publish rich long-form posts with a cover image, swipeable image galleries, tags and a clean shareable URL. Each carries a real author byline and threaded comments, and is structured to be found in search and cited by AI.

Questions, polls & quizzes

Ask questions and mark the best answer accepted, run live polls, and post multiple-choice quizzes (MCQs) - each with threaded comments and reactions.

Communities with a home of their own

Spin up a community on any topic - each gets its own branded subdomain, roles, and public / ask-to-join / private modes.

Professional profiles

A real identity for every member: headline, activity showcase, verified badges, followers, connections, and reputation.

Built-in CV / résumé

A shareable, ATS-friendly résumé generated from the profile - Experience, Education, Certifications, Skills and more, with one-click PDF.

Networking that means it

Two-way Connections plus one-way Follow, mutual-connection insights, and a People directory - connect and follow from anywhere.

Real-time chat

1:1 and group messaging with delivery / read ticks, typing, reactions, replies, pins and search - push-driven and encrypted at rest.

Feeds, search & tags

A personalized feed across every content type, instant search with autocomplete, and tags to follow the topics you care about.

Notifications, your way

Real-time in-app alerts and live unread badges, with a granular category-by-channel preference matrix (email & push ready).

Safety & privacy first

Block, report and archive controls, ownership checks on every edit, strict permissions, and safe validation on every upload.

Rich media

Upload once and reuse anywhere via a universal media library - cropping, automatic WebP, and swipeable image galleries.
