Why Should I Bother?
• Web Shops: Better visibility in latest generation of
search engines (e.g. Yahoo)
• Same holds for any business that has a Web page,
from A as in Amusement Park to Z as in Zoo.
• Manufacturers: Allow your retailers to reuse
product feature data with minimal overhead at both
ends.
• Software Developers: Help your customers to
use and generate Semantic Web data. It’s easy!

What Should I Do?
• Web Shops: Create a GoodRelations data dump of your
range of offers (rather simple)
• Vendors of Web Shop Software: Create
GoodRelations import and export interfaces (we can help
you with that)
• Every Business: Ask your webmaster to create at least
a basic description of your range of products or services
• Entrepreneurs: Invent new business models based on
GoodRelations data
