SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL ECONOMY

When you buy from local businesses you help keep money in your local economy. This creates jobs locally. Woglo helps support economies by providing local consumers a new way to find local businesses using the internet. Woglo also helps smaller businesses in local communities reach more people in their local community.

Woglo is a database driven network of websites, not a search engine. Why is Woglo better than a search engine?

How often have you searched for information in Google or Yahoo and the links on the first page of the search results are just websites with affiliate advertisements? The trend towards pay-by-click is the cause for this too. A whole industry of affiliate advertisement publishers has evolved from this trend.

Woglo content is easy to navigate and the data returned is easy to filter and sort. You can use navigational trees and drop down menus to find exactly what you want. If you want to use a search engine, you can do a google search right from your community home page. Woglo founders, just like you, are tired of in-your-face pop-up ads. You won't encounter any of these on the Woglo network.

Even though small and young companies:

• Create two thirds of the new jobs in our economy
• Employ half of all private-sector workers
• Produce 39% of the gross national product
• Invent more than half the nation's technological innovation

Small business owners face a lot of challenges, one of them is finding an affordable way to let potential customers know they exist and what products and services they have to offer. Everyone knows how important regular advertising is for business success, but advertising is expensive, and many smaller businesses find it difficult to pay these high rates.

Advertising can also be hit and miss. What a business owner needs is results that bring customers to their business.

Woglo offers consumers and small businesses a better solution.

Woglo provides an affordable way for small businesses to reach people in their local neighborhoods via the internet. We're non-profit, we're here to benefit the community and small businesses. We want to level the playing field so small businesses can have some of the benefits enjoyed by larger corporations. And we want to create a comfortable and safe environment for internet users to locate local businesses and information.
