Africa Business Direct
The Africa Business Direct website was initially set up to be a web portal containing both in-house content as well as content sourced from various locations on the web regarding trade to and from Africa. "This development demonstrates the Web Portal capabilities of the AbsolPublisher system", says Andrew Kinnear, Chief Architect of the AbsolPublisher Content Management system. Information is gathered manually by Africa Business Direct staff and entered into the AbsolPublisher system, thereby making it available to the world. The portal presents a number of areas which cover different aspects of the Trade Industry: "Africa Business Direct has attracted more than 10,000 impressions per month during its 2 years in existence," says Andrew, "This is indicative of the continuous need for web portals, and ultimately proving their success." Because of ABD’s commitment to keeping the portal up-to-date and current, the portal attracts a large amount of traffic and ultimately fulfils the web users expectations by delivering information they need.
