Ceylon Blue Sapphire Ring and white gold ring

Our website was started two years ago as a pure information website by my Dad and myself. After being online for over an year and regularly updating our website, it became very popular. The website was even quoted by Bloomberg corporation of New York( See About Us). This website now receives over 350 free, real unique visitors everyday, fifty percent of the visitors are from USA. View Traffic Details/Alexa Ranking for Internet Stones. COM

The visitors are highly targeted since they are interested in the Gem, Jewelry and Mineral sector.

The success of this website is unique in that it is probably impossible for anybody in a third world country to achieve. 

The pure fact of online business is if you do not have the Traffic (Visitors), you do not have a business online. It is like opening a Wal-Mart/ Cargill's in the desert , every now and then a Camel might pass by. Some internet marketers compare an un trafficked website to a lone tree in the desert, when it falls no one is aware. This is absolutely true to most ,if not all online jewelry retailers in Sri Lanka and other third world countries.

There are many small, medium and even large scale businesses in the gem and jewellery sector in Sri Lanka that are finding it impossible to sell jewellery online. This is because of the lack of understanding, which is compounded by unwillingness /affordability of online advertising.

It is in good faith that we have decided to allow them to put up their products for sale on our website
