Literally everything FB does. They do not hide business posts because they only like ad money, there is too much businesses, if they show all biz posts to users, users will stop using FB at all. If users stop using, ad money goes to zero.
Social network is such a hard thing to start, and on top of that the value that you are offering to users are contact information and other biz info? Google does that too.
I would think to start in a small business niche at first, do something valluable to a local community, try to come up with a system to evaluate trust in small business in small communities (and good luck dealing with spam and fake reviews). If you can do that in 1 community successfully, maybe it can work. Try to keep very very small at first, even FB started only in a college, then other colleges….
