Today is a monumental day for Specle. Today Specle has released new features to extend the reach of the Specle service to millions of people, and to extend our coverage across the globe.
Introducing Specle Search
If you make ads, searching for ad specs online can be a nightmare. Information is hidden in PDF, 5 levels down from the front page, or sometimes, it isn't available online at all! Leaving you to phone around trying to find the right contact at a publisher just so you can get them to email you the correct dimensions of your half page ad.
Specle Search is a powerful new search feature that is available from the front page of specle.net. Find ad specs for all sorts of titles in one central spot. Search for either publications or publishers to find ad specs you are looking for. Our auto-complete feature makes it easy to find the right title quickly.
Specle contains ad specs from major UK magazine publishers such as Bauer, Reed Business, national newspapers such as Mirror, Guardian,Telegraph, regional titles from groups such as Northcliffe Media, and many, many more. We also have the worlds largest collection of ad specs from Belgium with titles from publishers such as Roularta, Sanoma, and Corelio.
Our lightning uptake in UK & Belgium since our launch in November 2009 has put us on a fast track to become the Global Ad Spec Database.
Google it too!
Specle is now optimised for Google. Publishers that publish ad specifications on Specle will now automatically be found on Google. Linking to ad specifications on Specle will then increase the availability of ad specifications on Google.
Agencies use Google everyday in an often vain attempt to find publication ad specifications online. Now its easy. Go to either Specle or Google to find your ad specifications online.
Update Fri, 5 March 2010: We are still waiting for Google's index to update. This feature will be available in the next few days
