More of 2 Dogs and Social Network Options

The howl of the 2 Dogs is slowly making its way out into the social network corners. Lots of questions are being asked of this new service. Below is a summary and introduction.

2Dogs Software is a full-service hosted white-label social networking solution for large, passionate communities. The 2Dogs solution enables companies to create a personal, customized space for its members to meet others that share their passion for specific activities and interests.

Social networking, by its very nature, strengthens the bond between your customers, increases their loyalty to a company, service or organization, invites new users into the fold, gives them multiple reasons to return to your site more often and stay longer.

The 2Dogs solution is virtually transparent to your customers and meets the same high standards that your customers have come to expect from your company/brand/organization. Our product offering includes UI customization, data integration, and localization in your choice of languages. Additionally, we provide your community with 24/7 IT support and community moderation (optional).

The strength of the 2Dogs solution lies in its easy to use user interface. Our Standard Product is easily used by those familiar with social networking and those new to it, and includes personal profiles, blogging, messaging, photo sharing, video upload, groups, forums, search, event listings and administrative controls.

Like our product, our pricing model is designed to meet your company’s needs. We offer our solution on a pure monthly service fee basis or on a combination monthly subscription fee and advertising revenue share basis. For companies looking to diversify their revenue streams and capitalize on the exploding online advertising marketplace, the combination monthly fee/ ad revenue share model is an attractive alternative.

Both the revenue share model and the monthly service fee include:
· Hosting
· Maintenance and support
· Upgrade
· Community moderation (optional).

Our pricing model requires an additional one-time set-up fee. This fee covers:
· UI customization
· Localization

In summary, implementing 2Dogs’ social networking solution is a cost-effective way of increasing your members’ passion for and commitment to your company. They will come more often, stay longer and spread their enthusiasm.
