National market layer
DowntownDentists.com publishes market profiles, category definitions, a comparative market brief, recognition standards and national partnership information.
Network architecture
Three layers with different responsibilities.
The national site, city platforms and local category positions are designed to support one another without reproducing the same page or claiming the same search intent.
Participating city platform
Each live city domain publishes its own dental hub, local service-area context and four category pages for the downtown market it represents.
Recognized category position
One eligible provider may occupy a disclosed commercial position within one selected category on one participating city platform.
Why this separation matters
Each domain must have its own reason to exist.
The national platform is not built as a collection of thin links to local sites. Its market content and standards are usable independently.
The city platforms do not repeat the national market brief. They concentrate on local service intent, downtown geography and provider recognition.
The architecture therefore creates contextual relationships between distinct resources rather than a group of interchangeable feeder pages.

Operating controls
The standards are part of the architecture.
Eligibility, category fit, disclosure, corrections, link integrity and removal rules govern how a position is activated and maintained.
