How does Bettr.info work?

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

Let’s get back to the formerly explained basic idea:

Our direct customers are the visitors of the portal!

In order to establish a firm relationship with the visitor we focus on

Quality of information
Confidence in the information offered
Satisfaction and loyalty of the visitors

But how can the necessary relationship to the direct customers be built up?

By using Web 2.0 technologies!

Web 2.0 Algebra

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Let’s get back to the notes (e.g. here and here) on tourism portals:

If for classical portals the equations

Optimization for search engines = Confusion and overloading
Bought top position = Manipulated information
Unfiltered offer = Low safety degree

are true, then the following conditions should improve the status from the viewpoint of the visitor of the site:

Optimization for
human visitors
= Clarity and simplicity
Real top position = Real information with added value
Filtered offer = Safety

This is the way Bettr.info goes; instead of acting according to

Our direct customers are our advertising customers!

the essential idea underlying its actions is:

Our direct customers are the visitors of the portal!

The more specific purpose of tourism portals

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

When flicking through the article about the purpose of Bettr.info it can easily be done another step: the huge amount of currently competing web portals is exclusively aimed at the following purposes:

  • Optimization of search engines
  • Manipulation of search engines
  • Search requests: the linked web site to be positioned among the first few hits

The visitor’s immediate impression can be summarized as follows:

  • Confusion and overloading due to a lot of information mounted up within a very short period of time
  • Manipulated information due to paid top positions
  • Low safety degree due to numerous unfiltered offers on the portal sites

One major objective can thus be identified:

To generate turnover for the portal provider or their direct customers (i.e. advertising customers).
