FoundLocally has created a chain of 30 locally-focussed
community portals under the FoundLocally.com name, that now stretch across Canada. We've also created targetted portals TransCanadaHighway.com and MovinginCanada.com for the travel and the real estate sectors.
The FoundLocally portals are interactive for businesses, community groups & government who can add & update their organization, and post events, news, jobs (and volunteer opportunities) as well as savings (sales and/or coupons), all for free.
These sites attract an ever-growing web-savvy audience -- of community residents and visitors -- of a million visitors a month, who are attracted by the in-dpeth content, and the Social Media elements integrated into the website.
What makes this all the more intriguing is, that
this traffic was generated without any traditional media, just "organic" search engine listings, "word of mouse" and word of mouth.
For advertisers, FoundLocally presents two unique opportunities: (1) to
target a locally focussed audience with community-tailored messages, and (2) to
extend your Reach to an online audience not typically overlapping your traditional media (print, radio, television) buys.
FoundLocally works with Casale Media's online ad network
FoundLocally works with Casale Media, to ensure that advertiser's message reaches the best audience in the most targetted and cost-effective manner.

You might want to know if you are being over-sold on website design, or realize website features are insufficient for stated business goals.
