Fox Valley Residents and Businesses Invited to Shake Hands at Revamped Community Website
Fond du Lac, WI (PRWEB) March 17, 2008 -- Fox Valley Connect (http://www.fvconnect.com) today announced the launch of version 2.0 of its website, a move that has dramatically turned the popular Fox Valley business directory into a comprehensive web-based community that truly links businesses and residents with one another.
"We're thrilled to deliver a host of new services that takes making connections in the Fox Valley to an innovative new level," stated Justin Lindberg, CEO of Fox Valley Connect. "Whether you're looking to fill a job, flood your business with new clients, sell merchandise or meet new people, our new community-focused online system will help you become informed, get entertained and stay connected with other Fox Valley residents and surrounding businesses."
Fox Valley Connect v2.0 is an innovative user community built for businesses and residents of the Fox Valley and surrounding regions. The website--FVConnect.com (http://www.fvconnect.com)--offers job listings (http://www.fvconnect.com/job-opportunities.html), event postings (http://www.fvconnect.com/eventlist.html), a marketplace (http://www.fvconnect.com/adsmanager.html), and a forum (http://www.fvconnect.com/fireboard.html) for community users to interact with one another and stay connected.
What began as a simple online business directory in September 2007 has evolved into a community-based online system that literally connects people and businesses together in a way not offered anywhere else online.
Users of FVConnect.com will immediately notice that the site seems like a powerful combination of MySpace, FaceBook, Craigslist, Monster.com and other community-based websites that aim to connect users with one another. However, Lindberg notes that FVConnect.com is uniquely different, not only because of its focus on the Fox Valley, but because of the way the site caters to both general users and businesses looking for a multitude of different things.
Companies in the Fox Valley can now build an instant web presence for free (http://www.fvconnect.com/business-directory.html) by creating a profile complete with their logo, contact information, product & service offering, an integrated Google map and more. Each listing is conveniently displayed, allowing users to quickly access the exact information they're searching for. Each new listing is automatically added to an XML sitemap that both Google and Yahoo constantly monitor for changes, leading to even more online exposure for each listed business. With version 2.0, community users can now review the businesses via a 5-star review system.
Businesses and users can post jobs and events or list items for sale in the marketplace by purchasing low-cost credits from FVConnect.com. To celebrate its launch, Fox Valley Connect is holding a promotion through April 30th. Users can purchase a 500-credit package for $20, a savings of over 60%. The site is also offering 1-credit job postings and 1-credit event postings. These postings normally cost 100 credits and 50 credits, respectively.
Fox Valley Connect continues to serve the cities of Appleton, Green Bay, Neenah, Menasha, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac, Kaukauna, Kimberly and their surrounding areas in Wisconsin. A further expansion is planned for later this year.
Fox Valley residents and businesses can sign up for free (http://www.fvconnect.com/index.php?option=com_acctexp&task=subscribe) at FVConnect.com.
