History
Responding to consumer demand iFIND launched the world's first instant SMS-based mobile information directory service in April 2005, which allows businesses the opportunity to list and reach customers with specific needs. The user is only given relevant required information eliminating the usual clutter associated with traditional advertising. Click here to see how easy it is to use.

Some strategic acquisitions and partnerships with media Groups such as the SABC, has seen iFIND overnight becoming a strong and trusted household brand in the South African mobile and online search and directory market.

After careful research and bench marking and in line with global best practices iFIND made the decision to heed the need for consolidation and seamless cross platform integration. And in September 2006 iFIND launched the first version of our one stop search and directory service offering consumers and advertisers with the ability to secure instant gratification on mobile as well as serving their growing "info lust" online.

Understanding the growing need for outcomes based advertising, iFIND offers advertisers unsurpassed value for money. With benefits and features ranging from being provided guaranteed exposure online and on mobile to the free use of the iFIND e-recruitment platform and automatic inclusion in South Africa's leading web Directory and submission to the no1 local Search Engine, iFIND truly offers it all.
