JERICHO, N.Y., June 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Social Media
Ventures, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SMVI) is pleased to announce that its
online marketing efforts are underway. As a result of recent
efforts, its social networking site, PetsPlaces.com
(www.PetsPlaces.com), has seen a 170% increase in the estimated
percentage of global Internet users who visit PetsPlaces.com from
the previous month, according to Alexa.com.
Robert W. Thayer, President of
Social Media Ventures, Inc., stated, "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."
Social Media Ventures will continue to seek marketing ventures
to increase traffic and members to build its revenue model. The
Company is currently in the midst of launching its new pet-themed,
daily deal site, PetInThe.net, with an announcement expected soon.
Social Media Ventures is hoping to attract its online community to
its new daily deal site to provide its members with savings on pet
products.
Social Media Ventures also announced that the estimated daily
time spent on PetsPlaces.com by its visitors, according to
Alexa.com, has increased 145%.
