Posted at 25/2/2008 11:22 by wrongfred I think the decision to suspend the shares is a curious one under the circumstances. It feels like it was more of a stunt to attract some attention, rather than it being genuinely about protecting the share price while the deal was done. The deal was not contigent on the share price, and no news had leaked out beforehand.The company is presenting this as a major new contract, but is it? I would suggest they gave no financial details because there are none to give. Looking up 'Google Adwords Authorized Reseller' suggests that such deals involve no payment from Google - it's merely a marketing agreement where the reseller does all the work and charges an additional cost above the Google charge. It's a no lose deal for Google, but what will the reseller have to charge to cover their overheads? A brief Internet search seems to confirm that being an 'authorized reseller' isn't necessarily attractive. The RNS that a great deal of initial work is required on each contract, followed by ongoing reporting overheads. Yet once the product awareness is done, at some point these SMEs might well realise that they can advertise directly with Google, without the additional charge of the middle-men, which sounds like it could be significant. I wonder if basically being little more than telemarketers for Google and Yahoo is really a sustainably profitable business model? |
Posted at 22/5/2007 06:47 by gimme sunshine Another string to the bowRestaurant directory dishes up revamp Eatsomewhere.co.uk has been re-launched and revamped to provide one of the most comprehensive on-line eating out directories in the UK. Some 30,000 restaurants, cafés and pubs are already listed on the site, which is powered by Infoserve, a specialist in sector specific and local search technology. The site, which attracted 99,000 hits in February this year, is fully searchable by location, and results clearly mark restaurant type. An added feature also provides customers with a fast free way to book online. All businesses automatically receive a free listing, but can pay to enhance their presence and add a single page website known as a spotlight page. This provides consumers with detailed information such as opening times, price range and house specialties. It also allows owners to update information themselves to include seasonal menus, details of events and special offers. Bev Freeman, product manager of eatsomewhere.co.uk said: "The kind of details provided on the spotlight page are exactly what people want to know and will encourage them to click through to a restaurant's own website. Alternatively, for those establishments who don't have a site it provides vital web presence and boosts profile." The site's online booking service is provided in conjunction with global online, real-time booking network Live Bookings. Once a restaurant activates the service on eatsomewhere.co.uk, they are also automatically included on Live Bookings' network of sites including lastminute.com, sugarvine.com, The Daily Telegraph and cityvisitor.co.uk. Bev said: "Eatsomewhere.co.uk offers a complete online promotional package that will more than pay for itself after a couple of bookings. With the summer tourist season fast approaching it's a great time for businesses to think about ramping up their web presence and promoting themselves to people keen to find their ideal restaurant before they visit." Prices for enhanced listings start from £249 a year, for more information or to sign up to Eatsomewhere.co.uk visit the website at www.eatsomewhere.co. |
Posted at 27/4/2007 22:13 by stevenspooner It's a lonely site, no doubt.But £23 million turnover! Even if costs go up to £8 million that's £15 million profit which gives a P/E of 1/2. The share could be 20 times what it is now if those maths are right. So why did the share price go down yesterday. The MMs usually now what they're doing. I was just looking for hug really. Obviously the current turnover will not be affected until the Yahoo sites are up and running so the final results will reflect an extrapolation of the first half rather than being affected by the Yahoo deal. |
Posted at 25/4/2007 11:14 by gimme sunshine I think they have an impressive sales pitch, also like the way they intend to capture market share though mass sites and focused industry sites. the rise in turnover in q2 rose 100% over q1 and I am keen to see the h2 numbers. only then will it be possible to see what scale is required for profitability. I suppose the safest bet would be to wait for the results in early june.I got in these early on the day of the announcement and might as well hold untill the story becomes clearer. the management do not appear to be cowboys and have a lot tied up in this. |
Posted at 02/4/2007 12:22 by gimme sunshine good post yump.I think the yahoo deal will prove to be a major breakthrough for INFS. Not sure how long before we will get more information but year end has just gone. |
Posted at 28/3/2007 15:25 by leeson03 Cracking little company bags of potential .... The Spread is a bit of a bummer. I have used their website and it's not bad at all. Anyway for more information on the Yahoo deal look below ...Company wins deal with search specialist IT company Infoserve has clinched a deal with leading internet search station Yahoo! which could see at least a six-fold increase in the North-East company's turnover and bring hundreds of jobs to the region. The Darlington firm announced yesterday it had won the exclusive rights to provide Yahoo! with search facilities in the UK, in a deal that will "change the scale of Infoserve's operation". Infoserve - a hybrid of a local search engine and online business directory - will now become the official Yahoo! Local advertising sales partner, and will sell listings to businesses that will appear as links on Yahoo! Local results pages. Advertising revenue will be split between the two companies. Last night, Infoserve's broker, WH Ireland, predicted the company's expected turnover of £3.99m this year would grow to at least £23.16m by 2009 on the back of the deal. Infoserve, which already has plans to almost triple its 125-strong workforce by creating 225 jobs over the next 18 months, is to increase that figure significantly as a result of the growth. Last night, it said it was "likely" that hundreds more jobs could be created. The deal was welcomed by the City yesterday, with Infoserve's share price almost doubling on the back of the announcement, rising from its opening rate of 31p per share to a high of 60p. A spokesman for Infoserve, which provides on-line advertising services to about 20,000 UK businesses through a network of over 100 websites, last night confirmed the deal had been done, but said the company was unable to comment as matters were still at a sensitive stage. But WH Ireland said the deal promised to be massive for Info-serve, which has recently relocated its headquarters from Stockton to premises on Darlington's Morton Park. In a statement, it said: "Info-serve intends to offer four sponsored advertising positions on each page within Yahoo! Local for all towns, cities and postcodes in the UK. "Management estimate that if it was to secure only two advertisers for only 100 discrete locations across only 125 distinct product categories, this would generate an additional £6.5m annual revenues and require an additional 90 telesales staff. "This is a tiny level of market penetration compared with the 2,350 different categories of business used in Infoserve's database. |
