It gives you the ability to help your suppliers and advertisers be found online and empowers them to grow their businesses…and yours.

Support Your Market Segmentation With A Segmented Directory

Market segments and channels are a fact of life, but most web sites are not segmented or personalized. Sometimes customers are segmented by geography. Or, the needs, pricing and messages for sales channels differ. All these issues speak to the value of segmenting data and personalizing the site, to regulate what data is provided, and who sees what.

The PlaceLinks Online Business Directory System has a distributed database server and personalization technology. We let you be as creative as your market demands, to publish better value, and increase profits.

Some profit-winning segmentation ideas are:

• Segregate reseller from direct suppliers channels to preserve pricing and support policies
• Publish geographic directories and charge for cross-geography placement
• Cross-promote between subject areas or products when searches in one area yield no results

Benefits of the PlaceLinks' Online Business Directory System:

• Maximizes your opportunity to add advertising revenue from new audiences who want to do more on the Web
• Increases the "stickiness" of your Web site by providing your Web visitors with valuable information that improves their buying experience
• Automates your existing advertiser directory and provides online, self-service capabilities to traditional print directory users
• Decreases your time-to-market by providing you with a customizable solution to creating an Online Supplier Directory
• Eliminates the costs and engineering risks associated with creating your own online directory
• Releases your valuable management and Internet staff to work on other strategic technology projects

Our goal is to ensure a seamless process that can be summed up in one word: Success!
