  Why Sign Up?

So your customers can find you !

How many boating sites are there?

Recent surveys(1) show there are 4,310,000 boating sites on the internet.

How do all those potential customers find YOUR business ?!

Have you tried to find anything on the web lately?

How long did it take to find it? To sort through all the other sites listed that really had nothing whatever to do with what you wanted to find?

The problem isn't finding SOMETHING, it's finding ONLY the something YOU want, or, in this case that your customers want .... YOU and your business!

The major search engines have been hit hard by the "dot com" and high tech stock markets as well as by the recent recession and other things like 9-11. This is no secret and it is effecting the way the web industry does business.

For a while, everyone thought that banner advertising was going to solve all their profit problems and sustain high end servers and phone lines.

Well it hasn't worked out that way. Unfortunately, most banner ads annoy more people than they attract.

So, web site registration on the major search engines is going from free to ... cash up front. Now it costs you to be listed on the major web search engines. And each one charges you separately. Now, Yahoo (TM) charges $200 per month just to be listed on their site, alone.

360 Boating.com is the affordable, cost effective and just plain better alternative.

On 360 Boating.com you can show ALL the categories that describe your business and the major brand names you offer so your customers can find exactly what they are looking for.

360 Boating.com lists only boating related businesses ... no pet stores and  no car parts.

Plus, we list 360 Boating itself with the all major search engines so that even if your customers don't start their search here at 360 Boating they will find your listing here, quickly and easily no matter where they start looking.

And of course 360 Boating links to your own business web page and e-mail address so your customers can focus on your full site.

......only $60.00 per year.

From your customer's point of view, 360 Boating.com is truly "one stop shopping".

Cost and Benefit Comparison

Other search engines bill you by the hit. OK, so $0.07 per hit sounds good; but, your bill can "hit" $1000 based on regular traffic of 15,000 users. Now 15,000 hits sounds pretty good, but hits aren't sales and sales are what it's all about. Out of that what do you get?

Standard market analysis shows that that many hits might give you 15 sales on a good day - but more likely only 1.5 sales. Marketing experts know that most advertising only results in a 0.1% return on a good day. Is your product or business going to be able to afford a $1000 overhead on one sale?

But let's say you do go for their $1,000 ... then what? OK, so now you're listed and no one can find you!

The major search engines sort your web site and its pages based on words not content. A potential customer trying to find you has to sort through the hundreds or thousands of responses to her question that have any word in them that looks like maybe it might apply to your business. Many of the responses may have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with boating, or, more importantly, your business. The sites that show up at the top are the sites that are paying the most money to the search engines. But, checking out all the "wrong" replies adds to your site hits...oh, that's at $.07 per hit, isn't it? ... right! In our opinion, those kinds of search engines are catering more to their bottom line and not to you.

So, we do it differently ... simply, easily, fairly and much, much more economically.

At 360 Boating.com you list your business, offer your goods and services and advertise them the way you want, when you want and change that material whenever you want ... all for about 27 cents a day....total, no hidden extras.

No matter how many "hits" your listing gets, the cost won't go up !!
