We sure are interested. Everyone likes to win a free gift and our visitors are no exception. If you provide any of the prizes in our "Win Prizes" section, all ticket applicants will see a photo and write up on your product or service when they collect their free ticket. If you have a web site we will also include a link to your site. If you are offering a prize with a retail value in excess of $200 but don't have a web site, we will create a special web page to promote your company and product free of charge." back to top

"How come you don't have any banner advertising at your site?" 003
Well we think most people are sick of banner overload. So in the interest of keeping our site fast, responsive and uncluttered, we have forsaken this extra revenue opportunity. back to top

"Why do response times vary when searching your database?" 004
You may well ask why the weather changes from day to day. However to give you a serious but simple answer, here's just a few of the many factors which create the variability:-
•  The connection speed to your ISP can vary from session to session.
•  Loads on your ISP's server can be heavy or light. The same applies to our server.
•  The routes between servers vary from session to session depending on traffic.
•  Phone line quality varies greatly. Some are noisy and slow; others are better.
•  And don't ever forget that "Murphy's Law" is just as certain as death and taxes! back to top

"Is Motor Megasite a non-profit organization?" 005
We hope not! Motor Megasite charges $5 per year for a basic entry and a couple of dollars more for any add-ons. The whole Australian Motor Industry benefits from the great services we provide. We in turn hope that if we are truly professional and offer good value, surely we'll reap some modest rewards from our efforts. We can't wait for it to happen! back to top

"My motor industry business has three branches. How to handle that?" 006
Simply submit each branch separately so that each has its own listing. You may wish to mention the three different branches in the write-up text created for each branch if you consider this relevant. back to top

"We have 84 Branches throughout Australia. Surely I don't have to create a separate record in your database for each of the 84?" 008
Relax, we won't make you do that! Just provide us with a hard copy printout of your Branch List. This is surely available as output from a database, spreadsheet or word processing document. Just make sure you give us a version with all the info we need such as address, phone, fax, e-mail, website, phone region etc. Give us that and then we'll do all the data entry work for you. Relieved? back to top

"My business is in the Motor Industry but you don't have a Business Category for it in your database. I want to be part of Motor Megasite so where do we go from here?"009
Please send us a fax or e-mail telling us the most common names generally applied to your type of business with a few words about what products or services you provide. We'll either  direct you to the most appropriate Business Category in the database or create a new Business Category just for you and your Industry colleagues. back to top

"What's the main advantages of having my automotive business included in the Motor Megasite database?"  010
The advantages are very considerable. Motor Megasite is the universal Australian launch pad for finding automotive companies, products and specialist information. Motor enthusiasts know that they can quickly target in on the people, products and services they need by starting at Motor Megasite. Our search engine doesn't overwhelm you with a 100,000 useless overseas websites. We let you target the product and then target an Australian geographical region. That's why we're called the "Gateway to the Australian Motor Industry". Shoppers start here then sweep down through your phones, e-mail facilities and websites.  back to top

"How do I use your Search Facilities to find a specific motor product or company in the Motor Megasite database?" 011
There are two basic Searching Facilities available for your use. Each is separately described under sub-headings immediately below. You may find it helpful to "select" the details below and print them out so you have them at your side.

SEARCH BY PRODUCT TYPE & REGION
1. Go to our Home Page

2. Click "Find Specific Product" from our Home Page Menu

3. Now, choose a Region from the first drop-down list box

4. Then, choose a Product Type from the second drop-down list box

5. Click "Search Now" and await results

6. When various motor businesses appear you may optionally click "more info"

7. If "e-mail" appears in blue, clicking it starts an e-mail message to that business

8. If "website" appears in blue, clicking it will take you to their website

To immediately seach our database by Region and Product type, click this link

or  alternatively....

TO SEARCH BY COMPANY NAME
1. Start from our Home Page

2. Click "Find Specific Company" from our Home Page Menu

3. Choose one of the two options from the Company Name drop-down list box

4. Type several consecutive words from a business name into the text box

5. Click "Search Now" and await results

6. If your search is too broad you may not get the desired result. For example, if you search for Australian Safety Signs by just typing "australian" you will exceed the cut-off point of 100 companies which meet this search criteria. However typing "australian safety" will give an excellent result. It's all very easy if you think it through first. Just use the minimum number of consecutive words from the Company Name to find the target company without finding too many others which also fit the same search criteria you submitted.

7. When any motor business appears you may optionally click "more info"

8. If "e-mail" appears in blue, clicking it starts an e-mail message to that business.

9. If "website" appears in blue, clicking it will take you to their website
