Local listings site boosts interest for Hampshire business

Aug. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- As a provider of management services to a wide range of industries in mechanical, electrical, production and civil engineering, the Chandler’s Ford-based company supports a variety of local organisations with specialities ranging from tea blending and shop fitting, to hydrographic surveys. Looking to further their sights, MD Geoffrey Partridge came across local listings site HugoFox.com. He says:

“We wanted to raise awareness of PD Quality and HugoFox.com seemed the perfect way of promoting our services at a local level through a user-friendly website. Soon after registering, we noticed a spike in visitors to our site which led to several consultations with new clients. These included a printing company in Southampton, Electronics Engineers in Eastleigh and a distributor of hydraulic equipment in Matchwood.

“The quality of these leads was exceptional as each had a requirement well-matched to our quality, environmental and Health & Safety management services – so we were thrilled with the results.”

Now offering a free portal for businesses wishing to advertise services, as well as a cost-effective alternative for those seeking to recruit locally, HugoFox.com is utilising the World Wide Web to bring companies closer to the communities which they serve.

Michael Thompson, Chairman of HugoFox.com, said: “We want to encourage people to look at what’s on their doorstep when it comes to sourcing what they need. We’re delighted that businesses such as PD Quality are faring well from using our local listings site as a way of drumming up more business and increasing awareness of their products and services within the region.

“We designed the site to be clear of ads and easy to use, and in just a year it has gone from strength to strength – and that’s enabling us to now offer completely free postings on our services site, to help businesses in the region promote their products and services.”
