SMVI is a public company traded on the OTC: Pink Sheets under the ticker symbol, SMVI.
Currently SMVI operates two social networking sites; www.petsplaces.com and www.rocktag.us . Social Media Ventures (SMVI) is an online media venture company, creating and acquiring niche social networking websites, revenue generating web sites and e-commerce properties. SMVI will integrate an online advertising program that focuses on attracting advertisers to its core demographics for each social networking site.

 

GOAL:

The most popular Social Networking sites have become too large and too general. Finding the right groups and identifying the most dedicated members that share a specific member's interest or hobby can be daunting, especially for those who take their pets seriously. Management of SMVI is excited about the potential of its pet themed social networking site, PetsPlaces.com. Management's goal is to increase membership thereby positioning the site to attract advertisers by building an online community of passionate members that feel welcomed by members who share the same interest and hobbies that they do.

Social Media Ventures is headquartered in Jericho, NY and publicly traded on the OTC: Pink Sheets. The company was founded by Robert W. Thayer, an executive with entrepreneurial experience in the marketing and operational duties of Internet Service Providers, web hosting services as well as e-commerce sites. Mr. Thayer plans to continue to guide the growth and marketing strategy of SMVI's successful pet-themed social networking site, PetsPlaces.com to even higher levels than currently achieved. With the implementation of a planned advertising strategy for PetsPlaces, he hopes to capitalize on the fact that the masses are taking control of content consumption online, by actively participating in social networking portals.

 

SERVICES

Social Networking Portal

SMVI's social networking site, PetsPlaces.com has been spurred by the increased interest in pet owners interested in socializing with other pet owners who share the same enthusiasm and passion as they do. It is this passionate membership base of close to 5,000 members that SMVI plans to capitalize on through an increased marketing and advertising campaign. SMVI's strategy is to integrate an online advertising program that focuses on attracting advertisers to its core demographics for each social networking site owned and operated by the Company. PetsPlaces has already begun to generate interest from pet service companies interested in advertising their products directly to members.

 

Internet Connectivity

SMVI also operates three Internet Service Providers (ISPs) which provide Internet connectivity to subscribers in the USA, specifically in the states of Pennsylvania and Alabama. The ISPs cater to two separate rural areas in the United States, Pennsylvania and Alabama. All three ISPs utilize an operational platform that is completely outsourced, providing SMVI with reduced costs. Management of SMVI plans to convert the home page of each ISP into its own social networking site to create an online local community for members as well as attract local advertisers.

 

Web Hosting

SMVI is in beta mode of launching its own web hosting company; www.netskyhost..com. SMVI is applying the same strategy as its ISP operational platform when operating its hosting company's services. All of the services needed to operate NetSkyHost are outsourced. Management plans to acquire a web hosting company, transfer its web hosting subscribers to its web hosting platform, quickly providing economies of scale to its revenue model.

 

PORTALS

PetsPlaces.com, a large market for SMVI in the USA
Times have changed, and the masses online are expressing their expertise, opinions and interests with others through their own words or photos through the ease of use of social networking sites. These actions illustrate to the world how empowering social media has become to users online everywhere. SMVI plans to attract these social media users by creating and managing niche social networks with a purpose of attracting a specific target market or interest. Niche sites, such as SMVI's PetsPlaces, may be more attractive to direct advertisers because the site is so much better targeted to that audience, making it a more effective advertising site than generic sites.
