A better way to find and connect with local business online...

Why join The Streets Network?

Our goal is simply to build a better localised information network where local users and their local businesses can connect to each other online quickly, easily and maintain those connections.

Joining and using The Streets Network will help your local economy by providing a better, less expensive way for local business to connect with consumers.

Not many people realise just how much “Global Search Corporations” cost local businesses every year – and how their “search system” is in-effecient and designed to make businesses pay for what should be a very simple solution.

Business web site owners should not have to worry or suffer because of “Keyword based Search Engine Rankings”  and “Highest Bidder Pay Per Click Advertising”…

No more “judging” of business websites – No more “search engine rankings” – No more “keywording” – No more “Search Engine Optimisation Fees” – just a quick easy to use local network connecting business and local users online.

Every month tens of thousands of local Australian businesses are having to spend MILLIONS of advertising dollars to global companies for Search Engine Advertising and “Search Engine Optimisation” sharks.  Yes, MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of dollars every month stream from local business bank acounts straight to these Global Internet Corporations…

THAT MONEY WILL NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN HERE IN AUSTRALIA.

Globally this amount totals BILLIONS of hard earned and borrowed dollars per year gone forever. Of course it is in their (the Global Internet Companies’) best interest to keep this system going.  Why provide a better alternative when the current system makes them BILLIONS per year?

“They” built the system – they “control” the system – and as long a people continue to support that system it will never change.

We know many small businesses are suffering because of Global Search Engines.  I personally have been a web developer for over 17 years and I know how stressed and worried business owners are about “rankings” and “paying for SEO” or being almost forced to “Pay per Click.” just to be found online by the masses.    It’s a terrible mess…

That is why we re-built The Streets Network.   We have put together something a “global search engine” or “business directory” alone can not.  The Streets Network is a system that fosters building true relationships between local users and local businesses online.  Our information networking platform combines the best of Web 2.0, building and maintaining connections between local businesses and local people.  All in a way that doesn’t cost a lot of time or money or interfere with you other social networking / personal networking…

People come to and use The Streets Network to find everyday local information and businesses quickly and easily + they can keep in touch with their favourite businesses and keep informed as they want to.  No more email boxes filled with marketing newsletters, no more commercial posts on your Facebook. 

Businesses joing and use The Streets Network because they know that they will always be found easily by our users, build networks with other members, attract loyal followers and be bookmarked by their clients easily.  The Streets Network makes keeping in touch with customers and business associates easy.

Sure,  use “global search” to find information such as “how to bake an awesome pecan pie” – or to research a product – but when it comes to looking for a local business or service start with the Streets.  Every dollar a local business can save on “advertising” is one more dollar that will stay in your local economy.

Your choice makes a difference!

  • Listing Sort Order Updated

    by on March 5, 2012 - 0 Comments

    We had to remove the listing sorting by number of views for the time being.  Due to the high volume of listings our site was slowed down significantly and we also found that people were abusing the system by clicking competitors to move them to the bottom of the list. We are currently working on […]

  • IP Ban in Effect

    by on November 21, 2012 - 0 Comments

    In order to maintain a higher quality directory we review every business listing before they are published. Because of Google and their “link ranking” methodology, we are inundated with SPAM business link submits, up to hundreds a day! We are now actively blocking the IP addresses of people who try to submit junk links and […]
