ABOUT
US
WHO WE ARE - WHAT WE DO - OUR
PHILOSOPHY Who
We Are
Art-Bridge.com
(c/o Arthbys.com Inc.) is an Internet Art
Directory.
For the past six years a dedicated group
of a very talented artists and experienced wed
designers combined their efforts to bring
together
the best art resources in a clear, easy to
find, reference location.
What
We Do
Our
mission is in creating an open window for
artists and art businesses, to promote their
works and services, to become the BEST art
source on the Internet.
Worthwhile art cries out for both
intimacy and broad exposure. Intimate
exposure is our goal and particular
oxymoron. Read
more on our mission...
Bypass
blues.
No
matter how much money you spend on a nicely done
artistic eye-catchy Web site, it means nothing
if people just pass by. There is nothing more
exasperating than absorption in a black hole,
that hole in a laptop where all money goes.
In this Cyber Soup many da Vincis will
become a vegetable. Our solution is in a quirky
format and personal time, care and attention to
individual needs. Now you can be personal,
interactive and yet reach so many people. This
is what we do.
Our
Philosophy
- Art-Bridge is
different from ALL OTHER Search Engines and
most Internet Directories that prioritize
listings based on "popularity",
"relevancy", "quality",
"importance", "keywords
bid", "alphabetical order",
or any other criteria.
- We do not rank
or use any ranking system in our Directory.
- Web site/
business owners have full control over how
their sites are presented in Art-Bridge
Directory. You tell us where and how you'd
like to see your listings presented and
we'll do exactly that. Owners can re-move,
re-list, upgrade, visualize, re-categorized
their listing.
Intimate Exposure
-
The Intimate
Exposure is a unique approach to web site
presentation in Art-Bridge Directory.
-
Most Search
Engines and Web Directories use indexing,
using search algorithmic, traffic
statistics, link popularity, and other intelligent
tools. Our presentation is not
"intelligent", it is
"sensual". We are dealing with
ART, remember?
-
Textual Title
and Description listing give you information
a feeling.
-
A visual
image next to description gives you impression.
(A picture worth a thousand words). Profile
icons give you instant visual
message about the web site contents.
