There is a new site which is useful for promoting local brick and mortar Small and Medium Scale Business. Usually, brick and mortar businesses, I mean those businesses established physically are very hesitant on having an online presence. The primary reason is additional cost because you need to hire someone who is technically knowledgeable on creating, maintaining and promoting websites. But now, it is not hard for a small business owner to have an online presence. You just have to register on a site called Bizster.
Bizster was launched by Planters Development Bank and you will find it by going to this URL address: http://www.bizter.com.ph. It was designed as an online social networking site for Pinoy SME. Any SME can sign up for a Bizster account for free., thus making itself more widely visible to other people or businesses that might need its products or services. With Bizster’s user-friendly tools, one can also create a business website easily even without being web savvy or not having technical background of making websites. But still, this is not a substitute for a fully functional website having your own domain name (e.g. www.pepsi.com). It’s only a social networking website like Friendster or Facebook.
