What is
EAdsMart?
EAdsMart is
an online classified ads website. It has been in existence since
July 2005 promoting all kinds of mostly Singapore-based
businesses - of both Internet and bricks-and-mortar type
operations.
Why are the
ads in display format?
To give the
ads high visibility, and to make it an interesting, fast and
convenient experience for site visitors. We will soon be offering
premium space at the top of the pages for banner ads.
Who accesses
EAdsMart?
The bulk of
our visitors are resident expatriates, foreigners on business or
on vacation, and local residents searching for a product or
service. Other visitors include overseas residents searching for
various items.
We have high
traffic from developed economies like
USA, Australia, EU, UK, Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong, and are
steadily gaining traffic from emerging markets such as China,
India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Middle East, Africa and South
America.
What is the

EAdsMart has logged over 2 million hits
and around 200,000 visitors. Currently, we get about 18,000
visitors per month. And the numbers are steadily climbing.

producing the highest traffic outside of Singapore.
How is the
website managed?
EAdsMart is
managed by IStudios Marketing,
a web design and services business. The site is updated weekly,
while the ads are online for monthly durations. Each page has 3
categories in column format with each ad fully displayed onscreen.
We edit and format each ad before listing, and may copywrite if
required.
Why should I
advertise in EAdsMart?
The Internet
has changed our lives. We now have direct access to the whole
world from wherever we are. It would be foolish not to tap into
this huge global marketplace.
EAdsMart
gives you a leg-up on getting into the Internet arena. Our
attractive and eye-catching style, together with our effective
marketing techniques, helps bring your business to the worldwide
public.
But I already
have a website. Why would I need to advertise in EAdsMart?
A website
still needs to be marketed. You are probably already aware that
this takes up a lot of time and effort.
Having a
website actually gives you an advantage over others who do not
have one. EAdsMart not only advertises your product or service,
but also publicizes your website via a link included in the ad.
This makes it very convenient for both visitors and you.
Our objective
is to market and promote your business online, whether or not you
have a website.
But I don't
have a website. Do I need to have one before I can advertise?
The great
thing about EAdsMart is that you can advertise even if you don't
have a website. If you do not have a URL, then an email address is
also helpful for visitors in case they want more info.
With EAdsMart,
you can have an Internet presence and market online without having
a website.
