TalkCentral is back for another episode and your hosts, Duncan McLeod and Craig Wilson, chat about the National Planning Commission’s National Development Plan and the (very sound, in our view) proposals it makes to grow SA’s information and communications technology sector.

Also in the show, we chat about TopTV’s launch of prepaid satellite television packages and MTN’s plans to launch a commercial long-term evolution network later this year. Then we take a look at the latest research from World Wide Worx, looking at Nokia’s dominance in the SA market and the strength of the BlackBerry brand, especially in the youth market.

Our app picks this week are FuelLog for Android (Duncan) and Simfy (Craig).

Why TechCentral?

We know that as a prospective advertiser, you are spoilt for choice. Our job is to demonstrate why TechCentral delivers the best return for your advertising spend.

TechCentral is South Africa’s online technology news leader. We don’t say that lightly. We believe we produce the country’s best and most insightful online tech news aimed at industry professionals and those interested in the fast-changing world of technology.

We provide news, reviews and comment, without fear or favour, that is of direct relevance to our fast-expanding audience. Proportionately, we provide the largest local audience of all technology-focused online publishers.

We do not constantly regurgitate press releases to draw in search engine traffic — we believe websites that do so are doing their readers and advertisers a disservice. Nor do we sell “editorial features”, offer advertising “press offices” or rely on online bulletin-board forums of questionable value to advertisers to bolster our traffic.

TechCentral, which is edited and written by award-winning South African journalists, cares about delivering top-quality content to draw in the business and consumer readers that are of most interest to technology advertisers.

We’d like the opportunity to demonstrate the value of directing a portion of your advertising budget to TechCentral, whether your company is in the technology field or not. Numerous opportunities exist for companies interested in reaching our audience of key decision-makers in South Africa’s dynamic information and communications technology sector. We offer packages that will deliver among the best returns on investment available in the online technology news space.
