The commonly understood FOSS business model : You write software and
release under FOSS licence. Charge customers for distribution costs,
Consulting, Training and Support.

FOSS Yellow Pages service you are building simply uses a commercial
business model where you create a network of buyers and sellers. Then
you try to monetise the traffic (eyeballs). You are using FOSS users /
companies as the traffic.
