Google on Tuesday offered to build for free websites for 200 micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) as well as give P2,000 worth of free credits on Google AdWords.Derek Callow, head of marketing for Google Southeast Asia, said the one-time offer is meant to boost the online presence of local firms and help them harness the power of the Web to grow their business. He said the first 200 businesses who sign up at www.google.com.ph/stimulus between now and December 15, 2009 will have their company websites developed by STI College for free.
“Any Philippine company that has a product to sell and a valid business permit can apply for the package,” he said in a presentation in Makati City.
He added that subsequent participants need only pay a one-time fee of P3,000 to STI College for the website development work. Since the websites are hosted on Blogger.com, which is owned by Google, there would be no hosting fees charged to the business.
