So we all know the popular location application Foursquare which a good number of South Africans enjoy using. Well,  let us step it up a notch and take location search to the next level and add a South African touch… the result… Waytag! This new innovative location solution is promising and the uses and possibilities are endless. Waytag allows you to give yourself an easy to remember tag that marks your location, much like an IP address marks a virtual location of a computer. Take a look at this video to get a better picture of what Waytag is:

Waytag for business:

Waytag is a very advanced location solution that allows you to attach a location tag to a business. If your business moves then you simply update your tag to the new address. Instead of giving your clients complicated directions to your business location you can simply give them your Waytag and they will be able to locate your exact position within minutes. Here is a scenario:

Client: Can I meat with you to discuss your proposal? What is your address?
SEO Company: Do you use Waytag?
Client: Yes I do
SEO Company: Our Waytag is “SEO”
Client: Great, see you at your office at 2pm

How easy was that? No need to waste your time on long directions, no need to tell him to go to your site for directions.. just one simple tag.

As another scenario, it may be that you have an office in Johannesburg but have decided to go down to Cape Town  to meet a client. You get to Cape Town and sit down in a coffee shop next door to your hotel. You quickly update your Waytag on your mobile phone to your new location in the coffee shop and then call the client and tell him to meet at your same “SEO” Waytag. You have just moved your offices at the click of a button making it easy for clients to find your location for that important meeting.

Waytag for Mobile:

Waytag also has a mobile feature that allows you to assign a Waytag to your mobile phone so that other can find you no matter where you are. Lets say you decide to go for a drive in Kruger National Park and you come across a leopard sleeping in a tree. Your mates in another car are in another part of the park and you want them to come check out this once in a lifetime spot. You send them a quick sms with your mobile Waytag and within minutes they pull up next to you because your mobile Waytag is marking your exact location.

Conclusion:

Once again from an SEO point of view as Waytag catches on, we need to be ahead of the game. Get a nice easy to use Waytag for your business before someone takes that east to remember word you had in mind.
