************************************************** "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream of things that
never were and say why not." ************************************************** In the last issue of eComNet we informed you that since going 'live' on the Internet in the summer of this year the number of hits on our main website www.neighbourhoodservices.com has steadily increased. It goes without saying that as the number of local sports teams, community groups, larger voluntary sector organisations, local businesses and self employed people taking up our offer of a free website grows - the hits to The Online Neighbourhood Network increase!! See for yourself how we have grown month after month. November once again produced another increase in interest in The Online Neighbourhood Network - with over 53,000 hits recorded :
Long may this continue - and please tell others about The Online Neighbourhood Network at NeighbourhoodServices.com!

| The ONNLine Community Sports Directory - | ||
|
These are exciting times at NeighbourhoodServices.com, as The Online Neighbourhood Network expands at a rapid pace. In addition to the strong interest being shown by community groups and small businesses, we have also received a vast number of enquiries regarding our free community sports team website facility. Our first full football league is nearing completion so why not pop over to the Bootle, Litherland and Netherton Junior Football League directory now - this impressive league contains around 90 local junior football teams. The concept of an online 'umbrella network' of free websites for community sports teams and clubs has certainly been well received. We are currently developing a host of websites for other local leagues so we anticipate that The Online Neighbourhood Network Community Sports Directory is destined to become one of the largest collection of amateur sports team websites in the country! If you are involved with an amateur sports team and are interested in our free website service there is a lot more information on the main pages of our website. You can go there now by visiting www.neighbourhoodservices.com |

attitude is perhaps more important at home than anywhere ************************************************** Another month has gone by and once again we can announce another new service! Remember when you could buy a youngster a personalised book? Well, time has moved on ...and so has technology! Instead of purchasing a 'one off' printed booklet, you can now buy a digital e-Book, complete with moving cartoons/pictures and even full colour photographs of the recipient of the e-Book if you wish! On top of all this the e-Book that is yours for just £10 is not simply a one-off. You can copy it over and over ...and over again (for free) and give copies out to all of your family and friends on floppy disc! To find out more about these very popular gift items you can view (or download) a sample e-Book. See the charming 'Jessica and the Fairies' Personalised Christmas adventure e-Book for free by clicking here. Additionally, you can go here for further info.

| Professionally designed logo's... | ||
|
Professional Logo Design At A Fraction Of The Cost! For a limited period only, just £25 is all that is needed to enable your organisation to have a professionally designed logo like the examples shown on this page. Using your preferred colour scheme, we will design your new logo, using a variety of backgrounds, text and colours etc, and if you choose to submit an article within eComNet, we will also include your logo and make it a link to your free website! No need to spend hundreds of pounds ( - in some cases thousands of pounds) on logo design fees! To obtain a logo such as this would normally be outside the scope of many community groups and small businesses etc., due to the high costs involved ...but the NeighbourhoodServices.com Professional Logo Design Service offers your organisation the opportunity to present an image which competes with even the largest organisations - at a fraction of the cost! Just like our very popular free website facility our innovative, low cost Professional Logo Design Service provides opportunities that were previously out of the financial reach of most voluntary based community groups ...until now!
