Database Mapping Solutions

The heart of these applications are custom built database interfaces which give the client full control over data entry, management and display. The end result is an online application that can deliver a superior user experience for this content and create new up-sell opportunities for the publisher.

Javascript Photo Galleries (iPhone Compatible)

Photo galleries are becoming significant drivers of pageviews for many online publishers. Our technology enhances the ability to serve better quality images, creates a faster interface which will result in increased impressions and improve the virality of individual photos through integrated sharing functions. The interstitial ad unit creates new, high CPM ad inventory.

Our application includes a management and reporting interface for this new ad unit. The result of implementing our technology is increased pageviews and new, higher CPM ad inventory. This product can be built around client-side hosting or our own hosting solution to provide the most seamless integration and maximum stability.

BizPages: local search and directory solution

Local search will be the most important growth area for local publishers as advertising dollars continue their online migration. All research points to this area as the fastest-growing segment of online advertising over the next decade. Currently, many publishers use third-party search applications from companies such as Planet Discover and Premier Guide. These solutions are lightweight and do not offer a significant value proposition to local businesses. Monetizing these applications has not proven to be lucrative to local publishers either.

Our technology will do three things. Create a genuine value proposition for local advertisers. Create a legitimate new revenue stream for publishers. Provide a flexible, publisher-managed interface to build this new local brand. This technology has also already proven its ability to generate real, recurring revenues at the local level.
