Zvents, the local search engine for things to do, and AmericanTowns, a national network of hyperlocal community based websites, announced an agreement to increase online awareness about grassroots activities, neighborhood organizations, and local events across the United States, reaching beyond the big cities to vibrant but smaller communities.
Zvents will power the “Things to Do†platform for AmericanTowns, adding millions of important cultural and recreational events, venues and performer listings to AmericanTowns’ extensive database of over 10 million community events and 100,000 organizational listings. Zvents will also share AmericanTowns’ rich local content with the millions of unique users around the world already using Zvents’ cutting-edge local search technology products as part of the Zvents Media Network. As a result, users of both companies’ sites will be able to find, share, contribute and promote a broader range of events to a wider audience.
