The IFMT web site is
highly ranked in the major search engines for our most relevant key
phrase and is found by literally thousands of different key words. Through
our thorough application process and consumer developed
Code of Practice,
consumers are logging on to the IFMT web site to source our Tradesmen. We
are well on
the way to becoming Ireland's most heavily visited web site to
source Skilled, Reputable and Recommended Tradesmen and Contractors.
We provide each member with
their own dedicated
Micro Web Site, maximising exposure of the IFMT as an organisation
and promoting each and every member to a targeted audience.
