lol huge volume today!!!!

[yump] 05/6/2006 11:22

Need a big effort before end of term.

Rampometer: 8/10
Effort: 9/10
Deductive reasoning: 2/10
Original Research: 1/10 - Although plenty of volume, we will be watching closely for the final half term as we think there's a possibility that other people's research has been copied. We first became suspicious when some content appeared to be quite old and previously published.

* 1.7 million unique visitors per month
* and Over 6 million page views per month

Whether you're looking for a local business or wanting to promote one online Touch Local is the best choice!

The History of Touch Local

Touch was originally incorporated in 1994 as the "Guild of Excellence", a service aimed at bringing together the power of the local business community by producing special offer coupons for local consumers . Its part of our heritage to help SMEs market themselves against the big boys. As a natural progression, Touch launched a smart card reward scheme for the city of Nottingham in conjunction with Nottingham City Council, it was a massively innovative concept and allowed the local community to use their CityCard as a payment card in local shops and for community services.

With the coming of the Internet, Touch set up a local business directory for the stores which accepted CityCard within the city of Nottingham. This directory grew in popularity and stature to be the primary online destination for the city of Nottingham. Our first UK website was born - with TouchNottingham.com!

Touch acquired City Online in 2000 and expanded its city websites to Oxford and Southampton, where City Online already had a strong presence.

In 2001 Touch continued to expand its network to cover 114 City Locations, one for every postcode and 2.4 million businesses across the UK, and has had teams working on the ground in Newcastle, Bath, Guildford, Bristol, Oxford, Southampton, Nottingham, Cambridge, Leicester, Derby, Durham, Sunderland and Carlisle. At this stage we also launched TouchLocal.com, to help our customers navigate across our network of sites.
