Community Town Franchise

My Town Network is a web-based community town portal business offering the opportunity to run there own website business. The Network is part of eXpert business solutions who have been established for just under four years offering a range of business solutions.

The network is an exclusive Community Portal Business Opportunity with exclusive territory licenses available. Our opportunity is simply UNIQUE – it is the most developed and feature packed portal with a huge number of income-generating opportunities. The portal is a great means of promoting local businesses to the local community at a cost effective price whilst embracing technology. In addition to this, we have developed the business to be a community resource for networking, business and making friends.

Our network has been developed to bring communities together online with local companies benefiting from the networking nature. Think of our portal as an online community centre or even the local newspaper but with interactive capabilities!

The Portal


We are offering the license to operate exclusively in your chosen area with the license including the complete ownership of the community portal site. The owner can choose to develop the business as they see fit or alternately, sell the portal on at a profit.

The package includes the portal, a domain name, 12 months website hosting, email support, 0844 number, virtual switchboard and business templates.

Each portal is effectively a number of websites rolled into one with seperate sections for property, dating, cars and business listings. We set ourselves apart from others by the fact that we have taken the concept one step further and integrated social networking (eg Myspace) into traditional portals.
