InfoServices.Com is a leader in technology-design for publishing interactive on-line directories, has just published its newest directory, CitiDex Yellow Pages Plus for New York
On-Line at www.cititdex.com. |
Integrated Information
|
“Compared to all other on-line directories, our new CitiDex
New York On-Line is unique in so many ways”, offers Cathy McDonagh,
New York Editor. “Besides being so
much faster and easier to use, our Citidex is the only directory really built from the ground up by New Yorkers
for New Yorkers and guests. My favorite feature is our cool hyperlinking throughout the directory and right onto the Web.
I also like the way we integrate traditional yellow page listings with information from the Internet, travel guides, maps, newspapers and even on-the-street research into one convenient yellow page style on-line directory. |
Interactive

“My husband and I,” volunteers Doreen Lillienstein, New York Researcher, “ like to use CitiDex at home to check out the whole spectrum of shopping opportunities from “local bricks to distant clicks”, to check seating plans linked from theater listings and even to listen to local radio stations on-line. We really are a “Yellow Pages Plus!”

Internet Pioneer
|
Citidex New York On-Line grew out of the Traveller's Yellow Pages and Handbook On-Line directories for St. Petersburg and Moscow, Russia at
www.infoservices.com. With more than 1,000,000 visitors per year, these directories, first uploaded in August 1996, are continuously updated by the St. Petersburg and Moscow offices. They remain the only completely bilingual English-Russian directories on-line today.

Imaginative
|
Citidex's most popular feature, however, had its origin in InfoServices' very first print directory for St. Petersburg, Russia in 1992 (the first yellow pages in the city). “At the time, I felt that visitors to Russia needed more than a simple yellow pages to cope with all the differences in culture, living conditions and etiquette, so I decided to include this information right
in the same category along with the usual telephone listings.” stated Michael R. Dohan, Ph.D. founder of InfoServices International, Inc.
Today, this concept of “integrated information” has grown to embrace city-related websites, 1-800 numbers, e-commerce sites, books, linked cross references and reader-friendly maps.

Innovative
|
“Many local advertisers are attracted to Citidex New York On-Line because it is the only on-line directory focusing specifically on New York City. Of course,” observes Heather Smith, Marketing Manager, “ our advertisers also appreciate the fact that, unlike any other on-line directory, our innovative in-category advertisements in CitiDex are always visible to the readers and create an efficient gateway to the advertiser's own website. This increases the advertiser's ROI on their existing Internet investments.” The common in-category banners and brochure websites are also available to advertisers.

International

Over the next 3 years, InfoServices.Com plans to publish multilingual CitiDex directories on-line for more than 100 major cities in the USA and abroad. InfoServices can also custom publish B-to-B, Internet and company directories either right onto the Web or onto a hotel or office intranet, as a CD ROM for travelers or in custom print formats. |

InfoServices.Com will continue to build the information infrastructure for international business in the City of New York by providing the most comprehensive “vertical city information portal” available on-line.
