GingerAsia.com?
Who are we? We are a team of experienced and well travelled people who have resided in Thailand for several years. We travelled across South East Asia and it drove us crazy to try to find the best place to find all the information we wanted.
Of course, there was nowhere to find everything so the wager followed... I can make that! No you can’t! And the rest is history as they say – GingerAsia.com was born and like all new born children soon became a troublesome infant.
As we stand the site is a truly cutting edge lifestyle portal where you can do almost anything you want - buy things, sell things, meet people, find information, personalise your Member Area and much more.
We hope it gives you all you ask of it but if not, let us know. There are a host of different departments you can email depending on the nature of your enquiry. These are all to be found on the Contact Us
Ginger? What’s that all about?
You know by now we don’t sell Ginger even though we love it and it is the ‘spice of Asia’, so why call a lifestyle portal that? Well, very simple really – the name embodies all we thought that Asia stands for: energy, life, potency, scent, power, subtlety and vibrancy.
We have tried our best to create the GingerAsia.com portal to reflect these values and offer something equally stimulating to you, the user. Ultimately it is what you choose to make of it and there are so many features and locations you may well never make your way around our virtual world, but we hope you notice the way the Ginger brand permeates all aspects of the site.
If you like the brand, you might want to check out the great merchandise we have available. Some of it is free, some of it is not but either way it’s mostly orange and has dragons involved so those of you who like it as we do, we encourage you to go ginger! It’s ‘All Turning Ginger!’ We think so...
What’s to see anyway?
At the end of the day, the main reason we hope the GingerAsia.com lifestyle portal gives you all that you want is because it has all that you want! We have gone to every possible length to include all the content you want.
The site is big. There are 12 sections that span everything from property to dating and motoring to jobs with sailboats, restaurants, spas, hotels and even a forum in between. The site is divided quite neatly, we think, into 3 sections:
GingerTrades: Property, Motoring, Marine, General (household)
GingerLifestyles: Entertainment, Travel, Lifestyle, Forum
GingerConnects: B2B (business directory), Business (opportunities etc), Jobs, Dating
Each of these 12 categories has advertisements from companies and private individuals and also independent reviews from our GingerAsia team and external writers and journalists. These are in the form of our GingerGuides which accompany each of nthe 12 sections so you should never be sort of something to read!
But, if you are still lost for reading material, remember that one of the key features of GingerAsia.com is the way that RSS information feeds come into the site and you can choose the items you want to read and check each morning. It’s your choice from weather, sports, news, social interest and many more constantly updated RSS feeds so you can personalise your Home Page. Enjoy!
LoungePortal Technology? Never heard of it!
Sounds like a mouthful but it’s really pretty simple to understand. The short version is that it delivers all the information you want, where you want it and when you
want it.
The longer version is that most websites and portals don’t have a great deal of choice for you because they either have their own products or services to offer or they simply don’t have the ability to include unlimited outside content. GingerAsia.com is different because we are totally independent and we actively seek as much relevant local content as possible. We then sort it out into an easily searchable database in easy sections you can browse.
This gives you the ability to go to any of the 12 sections on the site and see adverts there from private individuals, banner adverts from companies and also very informative GingerGuides that have content from us and valued independent contributors.
Then on your GingerMember home page, you can save, delete and view all the content you have selected and it’s there every time you return. No more clicking backwards and forwards, scribbling down references to classified ads and never knowing quite where you kept all that important information!
That's how our technology helps you find the information you want, where you want it and when you want it!
We all want to do good for others around us... well most of us do! GingerAsia.com is not a large corporation with a massive carbon footprint and in fact we are about as carbon neutral as you can get, being an online service provider.
As such, we don't need to talk about Corporate Social Responsibility but we want to. In fact we go well beyond that and we take a proactive role in supporting worthy causes as part of our Social Contribution Programme.
We want to support worthy causes and so if you or your organisation are a charity or you support the community in some worthwhile way, all our services incuding banner advertising are free!
Simply contact us with full details of your operation or services and what you would like and we will do our utmost to help you by promoting the cause and it's all for free...
