| Local information on Newbury is getting around the world faster than ever thanks to Newbury.net. Getting a mention on the pages of the town’s top website is proving to be a surefire way of increasing the online presence for local community events.
Within hours of displaying details of the Newbury Carnival on July 2, newbury.net was the first listing for information on “Newbury Carnival” with Google – the world’s favourite search engine. Multiple listings quickly followed for MSN Search and Yahoo. Today, almost any combination on Newbury brings up a link to newbury.net. Try it for yourself!
Newbury.net has gone from strength to strength since its foundation by internet entrepreneur Brian Burgess in 1997, by offering unrivalled local insight into news events and discussions on all aspects of this great town.
The site’s latest incarnation emerged a year ago today, and every month, more than 60,000 genuine visitors click through thousands of pages to keep up to speed with the issues that matter.
Currently funded by Donnington Grove Country Club, Newbury.net intends to enhance its reputation with major improvements to the site over the next few months.
In the meantime, voluntary groups, social events and other gatherings can rest assured that a listing on Newbury.net will boost attendances, as experienced at the recent St Bartholomew’s School Fete. |
