Directing
the Internet Traffic to You
The key to the
success of any product is promotion.
Consequently
we are committed to on-going advertisements of OttawaValleyGuide.ca. Doing
so regularly ensures that we are directing the traffic to our site thereby
promoting your advertisement.
Our concept
of providing the consumer with one place for all their local information
needs makes OttawaValleyGuide.ca one of the most sought after mediums for
Internet advertising. The reason is simple, customer loyalty and repeated
use. Most of today’s web-sites are unable to develop user loyalty because
the user visits for only a few minutes. However, our audience is provided
with a feast of information, which meets the needs of the ever-growing numbers
of Internet users that demand current local information. It is this format
of OttawaValleyGuide.ca that brings the user and the advertiser together
which develops customer loyalty.
Only recently
have many businesses realized the purchase incentive by providing the consumer
with Interact access. It is no longer a question of whether or not to provide
Interact access. The same holds true with regard to Internet advertising.
More and more of today’s business people realize the urgency of establishing
their presence on the Internet. With approximately 13 million users in Canada
regularly using the Internet, spending an average of 10 hours a week on-line
the opportunity for promotion is great.
With entertainment,
current local information, product information, news and travel being the
five most sought after areas by Internet users, OttawaValleyGuide.ca is in
the forefront providing the consumer with the information that matters.
