How do the Vibary Calendar Listings help me?
The Vibary Network is the new media for you to spread the word
about your events to local users on the Internet. More and more are
going online to see what's happening around them. You need to be online too, to capture
the attention of this Internet-savvy audience.
But the Internet is vast, and your events may get lost if standing alone.
You need to list your events with a search engine, such as the Vibary Network.
The Vibary Network is the Local Listing Search Engine ©. It
serves the communities around your organization or business. It lets you create
Calendar listings or link to event pages on your web site. It then indexes and catalogs your
events for quick searching and drill-down browsing.
See our latest web site traffic report. We are sure many of
our visitors would love to know about your events.
How are the Vibary Calendar Listings different?
The Vibary Calendar Listings should be your top resource for promoting
your events to local users on the Internet.
Compare us with:
Traditional Media:
Traditional media are well established but have their own limitations. Their reach are limited to their own subscribers
or their distribution coverage. On the other hand, the Internet is now
in almost 70% of U.S. households, approaching 90% very soon. Everybody
can access your online Calendar Listings. On the Vibary Network, everybody
means everybody from around here.
With traditional media, you
are restricted by column space, air time, or other physical limitations. Not
with the Vibary Calendar Listings. You can describe your events to the
fullest, and link out to your own web page, if you have one.
Traditional
media is also fleeting, not searchable and intransigent. On the Vibary Network, you can publish your events
several months in advance. During that time, local online users can discover your events by
keyword search or catalog browsing. You can also re-edit your events at any time, at your convenience --
your changes will take effect almost immediately.
Other Online Calendars:
The Vibary Network has the local
reach, with more facilities for local
users to find and learn about your events than any other online
calendars. See our feature list below.
What are the features of the Vibary Calendar Listings?
The Vibary Calendar Listings are
Self-Listed
You don't need to call us, or wait for us to review your listings. You just
publish your events yourself. You can sign back in at any time and make
the necessary updates, too.
To prevent bogus publications, we request a FREE VIP membership registration. We trust our VIP members to
publish events that
are legal, adherent to the norm of the communities, of interest to the general
public, and conformant to our Terms and Usage.
We do not verify Calendar Listings at the time of publication, but we will investigate
reports from our Vibary users for possible violations.
Easy to Enter
Just type the description of your event on the online form. Or link out
to your existing event web page. Or upload an advertising flyer picture.
We make it easy for you to promote your events.
Searchable
Your Calendar Listings are catalogued into our database and indexed
by the Vibary Local Listing Search Engine. Local users can discover
your events, either through purposeful search or through serendipity.
If you have your own calendar web page, you'll
need the Vibary Calendar Listings more than ever. Instead of standing
alone, your events will appear among others in the community.
How are the Vibary Calendar Listings catalogued?
All Vibary Calendar Listings are catalogued into our commercial-grade database.
With the support of the database, Vibary users can browse by many
criteria: date, community locale, event type, audience, lifestyle
association, or business category.
This cataloguing makes the Vibary Calendar Listings stand apart
from common search engines. These search engines can crawl your web
site and index your calendar pages, but cannot reliably associate
dates with your events. Local users who are looking for what to do on
a certain date will miss out your events.
How are the Vibary Calendar Listings indexed?
Besides browsing, local users can search by keywords. If the description of your event matches the keywords,
your Calendar Listing is included in the search results.
The Vibary Local Listing Search Engine indexes Calendar Listings separately,
and in common with other Vibary Listings -- such as coupons, calendar, classifieds, yellow pages,
local jobs, etc.. Local users find your events when they search
within Calendar Listings, or when they search for All Listings.
Furthermore, the Vibary Network itself is heavily indexed by major external
search engines (such as Google and Yahoo!). This gives your Calendar Listings
extra Internet exposure, at no extra cost or effort to you.
How much do the Vibary Calendar Listings cost?
They are FREE for both non-profit
organizations and for-profit businesses. This is our way to introduce
you to the Vibary Network.
There is a nominal charge if you want your events to be Premium Listed. See the Premium Listing Fee on the left.
If you don't have the time or the inclination to use our self-service,
we can do the listing for you. See our Studio Fee.
Do I need a web site?
The Vibary Calendar Listings are perfect to publish your local events online. You get the
needed online exposure without the expense
of running a web site.
The Vibary Calendar Listings can also direct local online
traffic to your web site, if you have one. No web site should be an
island in the Internet ocean. You need to expose the events hidden
in your web site to the community calendar maintained by the Vibary
Network for indexing and cataloguing.
Do you know that the Vibary Calendar Listings allow you two
outward links -- a more info link, and a home
link to your home page? There is no extra cost to use these outward links.
How do I track Calendar Listings?
Every time a user looks at your Calendar Listing, a page hit is recorded.
