How We Came to Be

The idea to create WowCity occurred during the Dot Com Boom in the late 1990s when a technological divide started to happen, when only big or venture capitalist funded companies are able to have web sites. WowCity’s goal from then on, was to provide web sites for small businesses that can match those owned by giant companies.

When the Internet Bubble crashed many businesses thought that was the end of the Internet, and also, many small businesses turned to skeptics and most decided not get a web site because they could not afford it or they do not see any reason to get one. This did not change our view of the Web, for we know that one day great things will come and make the Internet a Main Stream Medium for many uses.

Three realizations came to mind after these events happened. First, the Internet will not cause the demise of brick-and-mortar businesses. Second, the Internet will ultimately help any business big or small if the business knows how to use it for efficiency in conducting business now that we are in a global market environment. Third, the Internet will play a big role in terms of advertising and it can be very effective because of the interactivity it provides, it is far reaching, and open 24 hours for each day of the year.

The success of global giant retailers would not have been possible without the Internet that made the supply and demand stream of products efficient and cost-effective. Small businesses that are not able to compete in the new business environment started to feel the crunch of the competition. Now small businesses across many industries of business realize the need to advertise in the Internet. The popular search engines such as Yahoo!, MSN, and especially Google started breaking grounds when it made Pay-Per-Click advertising affordable for small businesses. Internet based shopping and auction websites such as Ebay and Amazon continued to fuel e-commerce allowing small businesses to sell online.

Today, the Internet has proven its capabilities and will continue to grow as an advertising medium of choice for businesses as it becomes more accessible and useful for more people everyday. WowCity exists to harness what the Internet has to offer which will give small businesses the edge to reach out to their customers by providing affordable and easy to manage websites that serve as an effective advertising medium to launch the growth of every business in our local communities.

Driving Philosophy

The Internet is the advertising medium that can tie up together all forms of current media advertising. Likened to the spider’s web, the World Wide Web will be the central and vital medium of advertising to ultimately compliment and supplement other media such as newspaper and print advertising, radio commercials, TV and cable ads, and other publicity event campaigns being conducted by businesses.

The websites of today are unlike its predecessors and the notion of a website as being a simple online business card is being replaced by interactive, dynamic, and effective advertising websites that deliver sales and leads for businesses. Even with all those benefits, it will be very affordable and can provide the best Return on Investment for the life of every business. Nowadays, a new kind of business model called Click-and-Mortar emerges as more businesses combine their traditional operations with a website counterpart to its sales, operations, and customer relations.

There are current issues confronting small businesses, that is, with the fragmentation of media, the decision of where and how to advertise becomes very complicated at times. With the decline of print advertising media readership by the younger generation and as more people turn to the Internet for shopping, entertainment, research, and obtaining information, there is no one identifiable form of consumer concentration in any media except for the Internet.

The Internet has become main stream and popular because of its accessibility and usefulness. Major search engines and content providers brought organization and relevance to the information that people are looking for. As an advertising medium, the Internet catered to bigger companies with huge budgets to spend until Google released its AdSense program that opened opportunities for small businesses to be side by side with its bigger counterparts. This is a milestone for small businesses in their pursuit of effective web advertising by having equal access and opportunity. In the course of time, advertising costs paid to major search engines in the form of Pay-per-Clicks continue to rise as more and more businesses bid for the top ranking placements and expensive keywords.

A new kind of advertising model in the Internet is gaining ground which is called Local Search Advertising. Market researchers in 2005 found that over 33% percent of Internet searches are made with a combination of keywords and place. This makes sense and shows that the Internet can take care of local businesses in every city, given that, the businesses have websites that are indexed by the major search engines. Oftentimes small local businesses do not have websites as yet, for them to be able to participate in the growing opportunity of Internet advertising and Local Search.
