Launched in June 2005, FAD is a list of Martial Arts clubs, Health & Fitness training and Clothing & Equipment outlets open to the public, with no bias on organization, style or training methodology.

As someone already running a successful organisation, you are obviously aware of the need and benefits of advertising. You may already be advertising in local newspapers, sports clubs, via a national Martial Arts magazine, or you may even have your own website.

All of the above are good ways of raising awareness in the methods taught by your organisation, but if you were to supplement them you may raise your profile even more.

That’s where www.fightingartsdirectory.com could be of help to you.

• You can advertise (not just a web-link, though that can be included, but a full blown advert just like those you might have in a Martial Arts magazine) (fees vary slightly on the type of advert available)

• You could take real prominence as ‘Club Of The Month’

• You can advertise up to 5 ‘events’ (seminars, grading sessions etc.) per 12 month period absolutely FREE (if you are already signed up as a subscriber)

• You could make use of ALL of the above options if you wished

• Your details can be accessed through various routes within our website, making navigation for anyone visiting it as user–friendly as possible.

• Our fees are extremely competitive in comparison to other methods of advertising

Furthermore, once you make the decision to join www.fightingartsdirectory.com we want you to stay with us for the long term.

So, not only will we NEVER raise our fees, but instead we’ll GUARANTEE to reduce your advertising fees for each of the second and third full year’s you sign up with us!!

We are confident that www.fightingartsdirectory.com will become a major, central directory for Martial Arts Clubs /Associations/ Academy’s, Retail Outlets and Associated/ Support Organisations. We are also confident we will deliver a high quality product, with flexibility for our clients, as well as all those people seeking out their ideal Martial Arts Organisation.

For examples of what we can offer, we have displayed ‘screen-shot’ samples to help you decide. Of course, you could always just browse the website to satisfy yourself even further.

As www.fightingartsdirectory.com is maintained by Martial Artists for Martial Artists, we intend to ensure that there will be nothing on the site that isn’t appropriate – and that includes no irritating Pop-Ups!!

As the directory will be expanding on a global basis to accommodate overseas organisations as well, your details will become easily available at the click of a mouse to anyone, anywhere, anytime!

So, you already have a website? What use can www.fightingartsdirectory.com be to you?

The answer is quite simple. For anyone surfing the Internet in search of a particular Martial Art (often in a specific location), it can take an age to find the right organisation, particularly if that person doesn’t have all the relevant details to begin with! (We’re sure you may have already found this yourself).

This problem can be avoided with our directory, as the search facility and construction of the site enables prospective students to search by TYPE OF MARTIAL ART, as well as LOCATION.

What about Search Engines like Google and Yahoo? Indispensable and very helpful, of course. But did you know that the majority of Internet surfers will only look as far as the end of the second page of any search they make? That means that if your website is not included in the top 20 sites in that search, you will almost certainly be overlooked by a prospective student!

As www.fightingartsdirectory.com will contain a vast spectrum of Martial Arts and Associated Organisations, we believe this will thus increase the overall hit-rate of visitors to the website. Over a relatively short period of time, we expect to be climbing high on the Search Engine lists – and therefore taking your advertisement and website details with us!

If you already have a website your details can be included as a basic link on your advertisement.

If you don’t have a website – now you don’t have to worry about it! By advertising with us, you will already be “on the Web” for a fraction of the time it would take you to maintain a website, and at a highly competitive cost!

We believe that in the coming months, anyone who wants to promote their organisation and services will agree that www.fightingartsdirectory.com is THE place to be!

Martial Arts training is often described as a journey. We hope that your organisation and www.fightingartsdirectory.com can travel together and help even more people along the way with us.
