SaaS Business Portal Website

Starts at $5,000

A web portal is a website that functions as a point of access to information when people connect to the internet or WWW (world Wide Web). A portal presents information from diverse sources in a unified way and allows people to easily search for specific information they need.

The first Web portals were online services, such as AOL, that provided access to the WWW, but search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN have transformed themselves into Web portals to attract and keep a larger audience.

Government Web Portals

Many governments created portal websites for their citizens by the end of the dot-com boom in the 1990s. These included primary portals to the Governments, as well as portals developed for specific audiences. Examples of Government web portals include:

• australia.gov.au for Australia
• newzealand.govt.nz for New Zealand
• USA.gov for the United States (in English) & GobiernoUSA.gov (in Spanish)
• Disability.gov for citizens with disabilities in the United States
• businesslink.gov.uk for businesses in the United Kingdom
• india.gov.in for India
• Europa (web portal) links to all EU agencies and institutions in addition to press releases and audiovisual content from press conferences
• Health-EU portal gathers all relevant health topics from across Europe
• National Resource Directory links to resources for United States Service Members, Veterans and their families

Public Informational Web Portals

Many public web portals provide information specific to an industry or area of public interest. A few examples of public web portals that are primarily informational portals include websites like medconsumer.info, a medical information website for consumers; allexperts.com and ask.com, web portals where people ask questions that are answered; searchitall.com, a reference web portal; and christianportals.com, a portal for christians. Portal websites attract investor interest because portals typically command large audiences and this translates to a large number of advertisment viewers.

Niche Market Web Portals

A niche market is the subset of the general market that is highly specialized. Every product can be defined by its niche market; but products aimed at a wide demographic audience are said to belong to the mainstream niche typically referred to only as mainstream.

Due to price elasticity of demand products intended for the mainstream market typically have lower prices; while products intended for a narrower audience typically have higher prices. Small capital providers usually opt for a niche market with narrow demographics.

A few popular examples of niche portals accessible to the public include Garden.com, a web portal for gardeners; The Motley Fool a web portal for investors; and dpreview.com a web portal for gardeners; The Motley Fool a web portal for photographers.

Corporate Web Portals

Public corporate web portals offer customers self-service opportunities while private corporate web portals offer employees self-service opportunities. Private corporate intranets became common during the 1990s. An "intranet" is simply a web portal that can be used by employees of a large company to help disseminate information to them in a timely and efficient manner or that allows them access to their own HR data. Private portals are protected from public access with security features.

Most corporate web portals have grown into complex mega-systems requiring many skilled webmasters, database experts and other highly skilled technology professionals to maintain and further develop them. Our SaaS web portal system offers smaller businesses the advantages of technology expertise they normally couldn't afford. Software as a service (SaaS, pronounced "sass") is a software delivery model that provides faster deployment and lower costs. To learn more about SaaS solutions click here.
