All-new Online Marketplaces website coming very soon!

You may have noticed a change in the content over the last few months here at OnlineMarketplaces.com. We’ve been hard at work behind the scenes changing what we cover, how we cover it and the insight and analysis we offer around it.

You’ll have noticed that since the pandemic struck in March we no longer cover the automotive or jobs classifieds markets as we paired down our coverage to our roots as a business: real estate. You may have noticed a change in tone in the newsletters and a few English spellings here and there. Hopefully, you will also have noticed that we give more in-depth treatment to the news that matters most and we have diversified our output to include more opinion and analysisinfographics, and evergreen content.

This week we hope to bring you the latest big step in our mission to be a one-stop-shop for news and views from the real estate classifieds and PropTech industry as we launch a new version of our website.

We cover enough of these kinds of stories to know that these announcements are never as interesting for the audience as they are for the company announcing them, nevertheless we’re excited to announce that we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to develop a website that has all you need at a glance, loads faster, and looks great. We think you’ll love it.

Commenting on the website launch, Online Marketplaces Group Chairman Simon Baker said: “We are excited to announce the release of the new Online Marketplaces website. For the past 11 years, we have published news and insights from online marketplaces around the world, keeping everyone up to date with the most important information. This new site takes Online Marketplaces to the next level proving the most detailed analysis, and better tools to connect our high valued community of readers.”

The Online Marketplaces Group is committed to not only being the place where the online classifieds and PropTech industry meets at our events, but also the place where the industry comes to stay informed between conferences. That means developing a website which we see as becoming a must-visit for all industry professionals with more emphasis on multi-media and truly useful features.

One such feature of the new site will be a button to get in touch with us to send us your news and views. We are lucky as a publication in that our readers are also to a large extent our source of news and content and we want to expand on that and build a real sense of community within the industry while covering what matters most to you.

Editor’s note: That said, please don’t spam me.

The new version of OnlineMarketplaces.com is on track to go live in the next few days with features, including a directory of all world portal companies, being added all the time after launch. Look out for it, and be sure to let us know what you think.
