How do I register my company?
Start by registering as a visitor. Click 'Sign in' in the top-right menu, then select 'Create an Account.' Once logged in, you'll find 'MyCompany' in the top-right corner. You can associate a company profile with your account through a straightforward, guided process.
Is a free trial period available?
A free trial is available on expometals.net exclusively for creating a FREE company profile. This option enables you to register your company for free but does not grant the ability to post news or showcase your products. It's important to note that REGULAR participation, which includes creating a permanent online stand with news and products, does not feature a free trial period due to the fact that the expometals.net team needs to process text, photos, and images to make your online stand searchable on search engines. Consequently, this service incurs a cost right from the beginning.
What is the minimum duration of participation?
Participation in expometals is based on an annual subscription, meaning the minimum duration is one year.
How does the payment process work?
After placing your order, you will receive an invoice, which should be promptly settled via a bank transfer. Shortly thereafter, we will begin setting up your online stand and the agreed-upon contents. Once we receive final approval and only after the online stand is launched, will the 12-month period commence. In simpler terms, the payment is made in advance, but it covers only the actual 12-month period of visibility, not the setup phase.
Does the package renew automatically? What if I want to change it?
The REGULAR participation package automatically renews after 12 months of visibility. For more extensive customized packages, we can discuss deactivating auto-renewal and renegotiating each year. If you wish to modify your annual presence or enjoy one-time content purchases (e.g. banners or e-shots), we are always available to find the most convenient and effective solution.
And if I wish to terminate my participation?
You can request cancellation following our standard procedure, on the condition you finalize it at least two weeks before the annual participation expires.
Who is responsible for creating the online stand, and how is it done?
Our editorial team will take care of this in accordance with your preferences. You will be assigned a tutor who will prepare the materials, including text writing, translation, and content upload, based on your instructions. Only once we receive your final approval will we take your content online.
What languages are available? Will my online stand feature all the available languages with REGULAR participation?
expometals supports six languages: English, Italian, German, French, Spanish, and Russian. The REGULAR participation with an online stand caters to two languages, one of which is English. By purchasing an additional module, you can have your company's profile fully translated into a third, fourth, fifth, and sixth language, depending on your package. The news you publish will be translated (and then shared) in all the languages of your choice.
Is it possible to publish news on expometals without having an online stand?
With FREE participation, which excludes an online stand, you cannot publish news or feature Product Cards.
How many pieces of content can I publish as a client, and what types are permitted?
With a REGULAR package, you can feature up to four news articles about your company each year of participation, roughly one per quarter. Each article typically consists of a title, text, and an accompanying image. Additionally, you are free to add more visuals, videos, PDFs, and external web links as needed. For every language you purchase, you can publish four news articles. So, if you opt for a REGULAR package in Italian and English, your company will showcase a total of eight news articles annually, attracting valuable, targeted traffic.
Can I manage my company content independently and make changes later?
Certainly. If you'd like, we can provide you with instructions to become the administrator of your online stand, allowing you to upload your news independently. Please note that, before appearing in the 'News' Section, on social media, and in the newsletter, your article will be reviewed by our editorial team to ensure it aligns with our editorial style guidelines. If you wish to make adjustments, such as adding a new Product Card to the Products Section, this can be done even months after your initial registration. However, modifying existing content in the Products Section should be approached with caution, given that these pages are indexed by Google. Making significant changes could potentially have adverse effects. Your tutor will provide guidance on the best practices tailored to your situation.
How do you ensure translation accuracy?
Translations are not generated by automatic translation tools; they are curated by our editorial team. Our professionals are language experts with specialized knowledge in the metalworking and metal processing industry.
Can I sell my products on expometals?
expometals is not an e-commerce platform; it is a web platform primarily focused on enhancing brand visibility. For visitors, it serves as a valuable source of information and updates, aiding in supplier discovery. For businesses, it provides a means to boost their exposure at both national and international levels, enabling them to showcase their technologies and activities.
The existing categories don't seem to align with my product range. Can more categories be added?
expometals has been designed to cover the entire production spectrum, from raw materials to finished products, including machinery, lubricants, equipment, services, and more. If you have any doubts about where your company could fit in, please contact us. We're open to discussing your ideas.
I have limited time and no in-house marketing team. Can I still participate?
Yes, once you join expometals, we'll provide you with a tutor who will handle everything, from setting up your multilingual stand to writing the news. Your role will involve supervising and approving the content we create for you. On average, we estimate that our clients spend around 3 hours per year actively engaging with expometals!
How can I track my performance?
Once your online stand is up and running, your company will have access to a customized report that provides real-time data. This report will furnish you with essential metrics, including visitor numbers and their geographical distribution, the frequency of views for your company's Showcase, the most popular Product Cards, news article views, and more. expometals stands out from other media channels by providing you with the tools to calculate your ROI effectively, ensuring you can measure the success of your advertising investment.
