Greetings from Greek-Festivals.com
GREEK-FESTIVALS.COM is an Internet directory for Greek festivals. It serves as a continuous repository of organizing and program information for Greek
festivals. If you know of a Greek Festival organized in your area, we would ecourage you to bring this to the orgnizer's attention.
GREEK-FESTIVALS.COM helps in promoting the Greek Festivals in a significant way. It lists the host, dates and relevant links
on one site that is intuitive and easy to find. And the listing is free of charge. Even if a particular festival has its own web page, listing it on Greek-Festivals.com means extra visibility for free.
Since the greek-festivals.com site is a permanent source of information for Greek Festivals, it offers a few important advantages:
- Although many festivals have a web page, the addresses are usually very complicated especially when hosted under other
domains. This makes it almost impossible to find them unless one knows the exact address where they reside. By establishing the greek-festivals.com as the permanent repository, it is easy to find all
the Greek festivals year after year, especially for people who may not be associated with the Greek Church.
- Since this directory lists information for multiple festivals, it is expected to rank very high on most of the internet search
engines and thus it makes it easier to locate the Greek festivals anywhere. It should be obvious that a site that is burried in a couple of thousands of listings returned by a search is not quite as
effective as the organizers would wish. So an avenue provided by a high ranking directory is a considerable advantage. In addition to this, if the organizers of a festival find it necessary for
whatever reason to change their festival's URL, considerable lapse time would be required to re-establish a new presence in the internet indexing forums that most users are accustomed to. Again the benefits
of a permanent directory are obvious when the local URLs change.
- The advertisement of any particular festival can be more effective since its information will be visible to all the traffic of the
main directory.
- Since there is the option of placing a page for a particular local festival under the greek-festivals.com directory, the trouble
for an independent page is not absolutely necessary. Of course any festival can always have an independent page anywhere the organizers like and at any time, and simply link it on the greek-festivals.com
directory.
- A few organizers put up pages for their festivals but sometimes they cannot be maintained easily so they are let to expire after
the festivals. The GREEK-FESTIVALS.COM, being a global repository for such pages, will remain active. This means that after a festival, organizers can submit the information for the next year's festival at
any time it becomes available.
If you are an organizer here is what you should submit:
To simply place a listing you should submit:
- The host (usually the Greek Church name) with which the festival is associated,
- The precise address
- The dates
- The URL link (internet address) of the festival's page - if one exists.
- A contact name and phone number (we will not post this but we need to be able to verify information).
If you would like a mini page for your festival under the greek-festivals.com domain, we can make one for it, or you are welcome to make one yourself (please
limit to 2MB or contact us if more is necessary). In order to undertstand what information you should send us, or what information you should include, please notice how the information for other hosted
festivals appear. On the main page there are links for the various geographic regions in US. In each region there are links to various local pages. A local mini-page made for your festival displays
the information organizers submit. This information typically consists of:
- Where the festival takes place
- The dates and relevant timing
- The program of activities
- Your logo or your local poster image if you have one (note: by submitting your logo or other images you give us permission to post
them on the internet for public viewing. Such images will not be separated from your other submitted information and will only appear in this context).
- Any other information pertinent only to the Greek festival. As a courtesy we will consider any other information that you
request us to post, but we reserve the right to post the extra info selectively based on space requirements and relevancy.
- A contact name and phone number (we will not post this but we need to be able to verify information)
