News Portals

Some of our friends in PR have entered into the online media/PR field with aplomb, and three of them are right here from Chandigarh. For getting information about the city and businesses around here in the northern region, some of the excellent informative portals are :
http://www.citizenxpress.com/, www.indianewscalling.com; and www.infomailers.com. The newsmakers are getting more and more opportunity to reach out to the mediamen.

However, the big question to all those who are handling portals. How many of the media men are truly accessing this news and using it in print? How many of such news is being picked up by other portals?

Let's hear from you.

Dear CJ,

Thanks for including InfoMailers.com in your blogs.

InfoMailers.com is also a medium in itself as it sends out news alerts to more than 15 Lakh Indian net users including 20,000+ top-notch industry leaders from CII, ASSOCHAM, FICCI, PHDCII and NASCOMM etc.

InfoMailers.com is a real time service that distributes Press Releases and Sales Messages to media and non-media members across India.

InfoMailers.com is a great service. We have made use of the services offered by InfoMailers.com many times and have always been benefited by it. It is great to see MNCs and bigger companies opting for InfoMailers.com as their official Newswire.

If I compare the three websites you've mentioned in your post, that I will say that India News Calling is a beautifully designed news website that basically covers local news items, while InfoMailers.com seems to be a website where designing can be improved a lot, but as far as functional and utility areas are concerned, it is the best of all three. Nay, it is a unique service in India.
InfoMailers.com is the only one that also sends out 'News Alerts' to an incredibly large number of 1.5 million net users, and the receipient can access all news items either in English, Hindi or Punjabi.
It is a great service that fascinates me.
It has also partnered with exchange4media.com, The Financial World, XTVWorld.com, Kashmir Times and others and the exposure gets multiplied.
InfoMailers.com deserves a separate mention, not just a passing mention along with others.

Tourism is more than a business or just an economic activity

What do you mean by tourism? I often wonder at the word ‘tourism’; perhaps the only business or vocation which has ‘ism’ prefixed to it....
