Social Media Ventures Inc. drives 170 percent traffic increase of PetsPlaces.com, a social networking site revolved around the pet industry. According to Alexa.com, the increase is among global users compared to the previous month. Time spent on PetsPlaces.com has also increased 145 percent from last month. SMVI hopes to continue their revenue model and seek new marketing opportunities.
Robert W. Thayer, President of Social Media Ventures, Inc., said, "It is very exciting to see continued interest for our pet-themed social networking site, PetsPlaces.com. Social networking portals and applications are attracting a lot of attention right now, and my goal is to market PetsPlaces.com as the premier online destination for pet owners and continue to attract new members. We believe niche social networking sites, such as PetsPlaces.com, will continue to attract those people interested in associating directly with others who share their specific interests online rather than join an online community consisting of general interests. And combining social networking with the pet market makes for an exciting opportunity for Social Media Ventures."
There is also a daily deal site in the works, focused on pet products and innovations. The site will be launched soon and will help save members’ money on pet product purchases. The new daily deal site will be called PetInThe.net. Please contact SMVI via email (ir@socialmv.com) for more information.
