1.2 Registration back to top

WORLD OF MANUFACTURERS is the world's fastest growing online trade portal and the leading provider of online marketing services for importers and exporters. It is the place for buyers and sellers to find trade opportunities and promote their businesses online. WORLD OF MANUFACTURERS is not a trading company but rather an online business platform, where you can search or post information to help find potential business partners.

Registration process:
Registration is free and should only take just a few minutes. To register your company, click on the "Registration" link in the left menu.

Fill out your information and click on the "Submit" button. Please note the following:
Choose a LOGIN and PASSWORD you will remember. When filling out your LOGIN, the button "Check if Available" will appear. Because the LOGIN needs to be unique for each user, this will allow you to check if your LOGIN is already in use by other user or if your preferred LOGIN is available and you can use it. Also, it's critical to fill out the EMAIL section correctly. Once you submit the form, the system will send you a confirmation email to verify your email address is correct. It takes just a few seconds to receive the email, although we have experienced several minute delays in some countries and with some providers.
When you receive the email, confirm your registration by clicking on the link in the body of the email. (Make sure you display the email in HTML format in order to confirm the link. If your email client doesn't support the HTML format, you need to copy and paste the whole link into your browser.)

Once confirmed, your registration is completed and you can LOGIN into your account.

Note:
* It's possible that the confirmation email arrives to your "spam" or "junk" email folder (depending on you email security settings). If this happens, we strongly advice you to contact your network administrator and allow all emails from worldofmanufacturers.com domain. This way, you will not have any problems receiving updates from WORLD OF MANUFACTURES or potential buyers in the future.

2.7 Hints and Tips back to top

A general tip is to fill out as many information as possible with your membership status.
In Company information, make sure you fill out your address and phone numbers properly, as well as URL of your website (if you have any). There is nothing worse than a buyer trying to contact you on incorrect numbers.
Post as much information as possible about your company in Company description and Company certifications.
Post as many products as your membership allows you. Your products will be listed in the product catalog and it will add another way for buyers to find you.
If you have a special offering (and if your membership allows you), post selling trade leads to increase the visibility of your company and your products.
The last (and most important) tip is not to forget to select the proper categories in which you want your company listed. You can have a complete profile, but without selecting categories, your company will not be listed.

3. Using / Searching WOM back to top
3.1 Top Navigation back to top

The Main Navigation Menu is easy to use, but also very strong search tool. You can search for the right company in 4 independent listings:

Companies - search by the companies.
Products - search by the products and then see, what company manufactures them.
Buying Leads - for sellers to find, what are buyers looking for.
Selling Leads- for buyer to find what are sellers offering.

All listings and sorted in 3 levels of categories:

Selecting the main category via drop down menu will display the listing of companies/products/trade leads listed in the category and also will display the Sub-Category selection and so on.

If you are looking for a supplier in a specific geographic region, you can adjust the listing by selecting the region (Asia, Europe, etc.), or the specific country (USA, India, etc.) in the drop down menu on the right hand side:

NOTE: Once you select the geographic region/country, all the listings will be displaying the results in the specific area ONLY even if you change your category selection. If you wish to display the global listing again, you need to unselect this back to default "All Regions" or "All Countries" option.

3.2 Listings back to top

Once you have completed the selection in the Main Navigation Menu, you can see the results of your search in the main window. First, the result bar will tell you how many company profiles are matching selected criteria (i.e. Results 1 - 10 of 18 manufacturers of "Machinery" in India). You can also see listings of all the individual company profiles matching your criteria.
