Free Entries

You can be listed in this Buyer's Guide without any cost. However, there are some limitations:

You obtain a basic company profile, giving an overview on your contact information and a list of your products, but no logo and no company description.
Up to 100 of your registered product categories will be displayed. (You can enter more than 100 products, and our system will then automatically select some of those for display. You get only basic product entries without product descriptions.

For much more effective generation of sales leads, you should look at this:

Advertising Package

We offer you our advertising package, with which you can get far better visibility and far more visits to your website:

referral statistics for suppliers with ad package — Figure 1: Relation between the number of displayed products and the number of obtained referrals to the supplier website within one month – separately for suppliers with the ad package and those with free entries only.

You can see that a company can acquire several thousand visits from photonics professionals within a year – quite certainly more than you get from any other photonics website. That implies a very moderate cost per lead, even when interpreting the whole cost of the ad package as cost for lead generation, thus completely ignoring the valuable branding effect.

The features of our advertising package are:

Most important: each of your products appears not only closer to the top and with your logo, but with product description and image (a) on your company profile, (b) in the list of suppliers for that product, and (c) even on the corresponding encyclopedia article page, if there is such an article (which is the case for the majority of products).
Your enhanced company profile contains a company description and your company logo. (You can enter the description below. We will take the logo from your website, or you can send it via e-mail.) You can also have distributor information and social media links displayed.
Your company logo is also shown in the alphabetic list of suppliers, where your whole entry gets substantially more space.
You also get a much improved presence in the RP Photonics Virtual Exhibition: with a larger virtual booth, showing your logo and images, plus other features like the promotion of news, a special product and a video.
We mention your participation at upcoming exhibitions and trade shows in your company profile, in the alphabetic list of suppliers and in all of your enhanced product entries. For the major events, we find the information ourselves; for others, just tell us the event name and website and (if available) your booth number.

Near the bottom of the form, you can indicate whether you want our Advertising Package.

If you decide for our Advertising Package, the content of the following fields can also be displayed:

Your company logo:

Company slogan:

A large image for your company profile:

For example, this could be an image of your company building, a photograph of your team, or a nice graphic illustrating your product portfolio.

News:

This will be displayed in your company profile. Each line should contain one news item heading followed by the URL of the news message (e.g. on your website). You may also add an end date for display with something like "until 2026-12-31". Example:
LaserXY has acquired BestLasers. https://laserxy.com/acquisition_bestlasers.html until 2026-12-31

This will be displayed in your company profile and in the virtual exhibition.

Offered Products

At the end of this section, you can find explanations concerning product entries.

Our system currently has 791 product categories. To avoid seeing many non-relevant product categories below, check only the following top-level categories which are relevant for your company:

(for example, for checking and editing existing product descriptions)

The product categories:

Explanations On Product Entries

The checkboxes below (under the table of top-level categories) are used to indicate which products your company offers.

Only such products can be listed which are explicitly offered on your own website. For example, you cannot be listed for lasers if you only offer components which can be used in lasers.

Each of your product categories appears

in your company profile,
on a page listing all suppliers for that product, and
in the corresponding encyclopedia article, if there is one and you have our advertising package.

If you want free entries only, just indicate which products you offer. (Product descriptions will not be displayed.) It can be helpful to also enter the URLs of your corresponding web pages, helping us to verify that you offer such products.

If more products have been entered than can be displayed for free (that limit is 100), our system will automatically select some of them for display – preferably those for which only few suppliers are registered.

If you want our advertising package (to be selected below the list of products), you can also enter for each product:

your product description, which should contain at least one link to a product-specific page on your site; you can use the Markdown format that. Example:
We offer [diode lasers](products/diode_lasers.html) with output powers up to 100 W.
(Your server address is automatically added to any link address if you omit "http://". In our example, the link address would be automatically expanded to https://www.sqs-fiberoptics.com/products/diode_lasers.html.)
the URL (web address) of a web page on your website corresponding to that type of product (if you have such a page); example:
products/diode_lasers.html

If you enter the URL only, we may try to get the product description from that page – also the product images, which you can otherwise send us via e-mail to .

It is essential for your marketing success to publish product descriptions (using the advertising package). We recommend two to four sentences per product – allowing users to decide within seconds whether to visit your website for more details. However, we also accept longer descriptions.

Once you have registered all your products, you can see their number and the resulting price of the advertising package near the bottom of the form. Note that the cost of the advertising package depends only moderately on the number of products; we recommend including every product which you want to sell.

If some special product such as a mode-locked fiber laser is offered, the more general categories (here: fiber lasers, mode-locked lasers, lasers) can also be used. Think about which keywords users would use to start their search.

Remark: If some special product such as a mode-locked fiber laser is offered, the more general categories (here: fiber lasers, mode-locked lasers, lasers) can also be used.

Comments and Questions

For example, if you had any difficulties with this form, we will be grateful for your feedback.

Free Entry or Effective Advertising?

Please decide:

Yes, I want the Advertising Package. (We will then ask you by e-mail to informally confirm acceptance of our user-friendly terms and conditions, and of the price; only then, it becomes binding.)

Our Advertising Package has plenty of features. The crucial one: get your product descriptions published (a) on your company profile page, (b) on pages with suppliers of the registered product categories, and (c) in related Encyclopedia articles.

Note that our users need the displayed product descriptions for deciding which suppliers should get a closer inspection. Therefore, suppliers showing product descriptions (based on our Advertising Package) get far more referrals to their website – in fact, far more than you can get with any other digital resource in photonics.

No, I want only free entries.
