Reflecting on 2014 and looking forward to 2015, everyone at ValleyBiz would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our readers, contributors and advertisers. <\/p>\n
You have made ValleyBiz <\/br>As Swan Valley’s leading online publication, the main page of ValleyBiz was viewed 1.3 million times in 2014 and has surpassed 30,000 views in one week.<\/p>\n <\/br>Over 2,000 people have already registered to list items on the free classifieds. With as many as 600 items posted in one month, ValleyBiz Classifieds have something for everyone – including the occasional kitchen sink.<\/p>\n A new feature added in 2014 was an interactive Directory<\/a> of local businesses and organizations. Nearly 100 businesses have already signed up to have their profile page, pictures and online information included.<\/p>\n A special thank you also goes out to Paull Funeral Home<\/a> and Swan Valley Funeral Services<\/a> who provide timely updates on upcoming funerals. This is a great public service for those who are not always able to make it to Swan River to see the notices posted around town.<\/p>\n Without our site users, contributors and advertisers ValleyBiz would not be the diverse online reflection of our community that it has become. So, to all of you, we say thank you and all the best in 2015!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ValleyBiz Story | Reflecting on 2014 and looking forward to 2015, everyone at ValleyBiz would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our readers, contributors and advertisers.
