Online Trade Directory

South Penrith, Australia, June 30, 2009 --(PR.com)-- A Penrith-based businessman has decided it was high time that local tradesmen and building related businesses got a fair go with online advertising.

Chris Laurent, a tradesman from Penrith, has developed a website which allows businesses to showcase their products or workmanship in the premium section of the site for nothing.

This gives tradesmen and related businesses the chance to promote themselves with more text and images.

"Times are tough at the moment for businesses and therefore need the maximum exposure,'' Mr Laurent said.

Consequently Mr Laurent has developed Productpro Australia productpro.com.au a service designed with two targets in mind.

The site will help people find tradesmen and products for free and without fuss;

The site will give businesses premium style advertising without having to worry about their advertising dollar.

''Millions of Aussies are searching for tradesmen online these days and if businesses are not advertising online they are missing out on a large number of potential customers,'' Mr Laurent said. "The Productpro Australia website will hopefully attract businesses which may have considered advertising on other similar websites which offer free advertising in return for basic information such as your business name and phone number and then list these details somewhere on the site, normally on pages not seen by most visitors.''

Mr Laurent said that the down fall to this type of advertising was that these websites used your contact details for their telemarketer's data base.

"Eventually people will receive a call from someone trying to persuade them to spend big on some project or other,'' Mr Laurent said.
