The partners program is designed to provide local customer support to assist  customers who want to have a website presence but do not need the expense or the troubles involved in creating a full website. The vast majority of businesses just need a short or long webpage to showcase their special services. For example, a Doctor can showcase their resume as a medical specialist; a plumber can just let people know that he is a plumber who specializes in installing Jacuzzi tubs; a Jewelery store that specialize in Onyx stones of all sorts all can have a website presence without the effort of a full website.

5. Unique link to their website. Easy to put into marketing materials the Customer’s unique website link for their patrons to locate information online. No need to spend hours locating website names and paying annual fees to keep it. No need for domain name registration.
6. Enough web content to showcase Customer products and/or services. The single webpage can contain information length of 10 equivalent webpages. This is often enough content from the single page with some navigation to be equivalent to a small website without all the costs and maintenance associated with a full website.
7. Self Management. After the content is professional designed by a Travectory Partner, the Customer can self manage the minor changes like specials of the day or week themselves without programming skills. If the customer has a computer and know how to use a word processor, they can update their own content with minimal training.

The results of all of the above benefits will ultimately result in lower costs and reduced effort than creating and maintaining a full website with greater impact than a website with its own domain name due to the exposure capability. The customer is happy with the results and the partner receives profitable income as there are no additional licensing fees to use the service – only time is charged and paid for making the webpage.
