Read my blog posting about this here http://smmalls.blogspot.com/
Years ago SM Cebu featured a series of full page ads telling the contact details of their tenant renting stores with store floor location map and a phone directory so customers could easily contact the stores to ask about merchandise, stocks or other details.
But when you do a search online seeking what stores are in the Cyberzone which is an outstanding feature of SM, nothing shows up in search. Such a disappoint and loss of sales for the stores that pay rent at the Cyberzone.
On my blogs all the time people are searching for computer stores and if they were listed in SM Cyberzone there would be more sales and visits.
And for the other stores in SM like the restaurants, and other shops, people are online often seeking directories and phone numbers so it would be great economic sense to show maps and stores located in each mall so more visits can result. Nothing exists now online at least what the google search engine can find.
Finally each mall should have contact information such as email addresses so customers can make inquires about hours, facilities, or report concerns. At one time there was contact details for each mall but it has disappeared from the web. It should be restored in this information age where SM is even offering free wifi now which is a blessing.
It would be nice for each SM mall to have online a map and store location, type of store name and email address and phone and web address if they have such and even a yahoo messenger chat name so customers could contact in chat instantly as some innovative retailers like CDRKing are now doing.
Here is a shop that has stores in the Cyberzone and has a good website to show off its locations and make more sales. Many people search for such details in google online.
Here are the present SM websites with no sales details for the stores withinor their contact details or map of the locations in the mall. Customers would increase if such was provided.

try this new website using Google maps api mashup for store locations. We are doing 50 of the major malls in Philippines with a Google map of each store location in the mall and contact information. This is the first website that provides detailed information for malls here in Phils.
