Connect Kelowna is an online business directory established to encourage Kelowna and surrounding area businesses to advertise their products and services to local consumers.
Connect Kelowna is a business directory affiliated with our Local Business Portal website. This portal is a hub for many different affiliated websites focused on local businesses in communities across Canada by creating individual websites to serve each community separately.
Our business directory is different than many business advertising sites currently available on the internet because of how it is designed. The majority of business directories do have different locations in their pages, but their websites are coded in such a way as to be a general website not focused on any specific location.
We are managed by Affordable Web Design Ltd, which has been serving Canadian locations for since 1996 and helped many customers achieve success in being highly ranked in Google searches. As seasoned veterans of the web design and development industry, we are well-versed in what it takes to help customers be found through internet searches.
A consummer searching for a certain type of product or service in or around Kelowna most often will go to Google and search for the type of Kelowna area business they want to connect with. Searches involve using " keywords" to match" whatever business they are looking for, and local Kelowna area businesses will usually show up first for viewers who are located in those communities.
When it comes to online business directories, we are unique. The majority of online directories are created using one website and just dividing up the sections by location. However, the background code, which is what attracts the searches, does not maximize any one specific location.
As technology has progressed, search engines such as Google first open up pages of listings that are in the viewer's own location. So because of this, we have relied on our SEO expertise to create individual websites in many different locations to expose local businesses to local consumers. We integrate "all the right stuff" to help our Connect Kelowna business directory website be found by Kelowna area consumers.
ADVERTISE YOUR KELOWNA AREA BUSINESS
Our Connect Kelowna online business directory is a great alternative to costly internet advertising. Having an online presence is necessary for businesses wanting to attract more customers, but additional advertising gives a business even more exposure.
Online Business Directories - the majority of online business directories use premade templates and often don't give you much space to talk about your business. Calgary Business Hub's online directory markets to your specific potential audience in and around the Calgary area. Average monthly costs to advertise on such online venues can cost up to $200 a month or more, but Calgary Business Hub is offering an advertising spot for only $49.99 a month!
Website SEO - average costs for SEO can range from $500 to $5,000 or more per month, depending on the size of business and the industry competition. Calgary Business Hub incorporates all kinds of SEO parameters and still only charges $49.99 a month!
Pay-Per-Click Advertising - Google Ads are an effective tool but can be quite costly on a monthly basis. Some businesses pay over $2,000 a month.
Social Media Marketing - great for brand awareness when people find your listing, but its effectiveness depends on the kind of business you run. Ads on Social Media platforms can cost up to between $1,000 to $3,000 a month for small to medium sized businesses in order to be effective.
Email Marketing - email marketing is a good way to let people know that you are there, but it can be time consuming and in Canada, rules can be quite restrictive.
We will be adding many more categories as more advertisers come on board.
