About Us
From Welshop internet marketing company founded in 2002.
The Contemporary Wedding Directory
The I Do Directory is a wedding directory that showcases wedding related businesses on a level financial playing field, but uniquely, uses a ranking system controlled by the bridal customers votes and reviews.
The Cause
The I Do Directory is the brainchild of Brinley Williams, an internet marketing consultant and successful web entrepreneur who had the vision of an unbiased contemporary wedding directory.
On the subject of subscribing to wedding directories he stated: "One of my web based companies is Celtmyth Candles which specialises in personalised wedding candles. Each month we receive a host of different wedding directories subscription offers with Local Area, multiple area and site wide listing options, Premium Listings as well as Speciality Category Banners Advertising options.
Even with being in the Internet marketing industry I was left bemused as to which, if any, would give value for money and increase the sites web exposure. After pondering the problem I felt a new approach was needed and that it would be refreshing to create a wedding directory that was not complicated with price tiering or varying features but focused simply on providing a quality service to all customers."
The Concept
This led to the creation of a "clean & fair directory model" where wedding businesses compete with one another on a level playing field and which led to the creation of the I Do Directory whose primary constructs can be summarised as follows:
- Full Regional and National Coverage
- One Pricing Model
- Standardised Features
- No Premium Listings
- No Banner Advertising
His other successful web enterprises include the Mug Shop, a site specilising in personalised mugs, the Welsh Shop which as the name suggests is a welsh gift e-commerce site and his internet marketing consultancy Welshop
Thanks to his Internet marketing experience, all of the above sites rank on Page 1 of Google for high traffic terms like "wedding candle", "personalised mugs" and "welsh gift".
With such Internet marketing experience behind it, I Do Directory will no doubt follow suit.
The Future
A clean,attractive and usuable website that will provide prospective wedding customers with access to all wedding suppliers, big or small, and information on how prior customers rated their services and products.
