Active Use as a Local Lifestyle Service Information Search Channel

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] The local community platform Danggeun Market recently announced on the 4th that the demand for information on air conditioner installation, cleaning, and repair services is rapidly increasing.

Over the past two weeks, the search volume for air conditioner installation, cleaning, and repair services on Danggeun Market has increased more than 13 times compared to the previous two weeks. Air conditioner-related businesses occupied the top four spots in the ranking of the most searched neighborhood stores on Danggeun Market.

On Danggeun Market's 'Neighborhood Life' section, posts related to air conditioners by residents preparing early for summer have noticeably increased since mid-April. The number of air conditioner-related posts in the past two weeks rose by nearly 35% compared to the previous two weeks, and throughout April, it increased by 80% compared to March. Danggeun Market explained that, compared to last year when related posts increased from mid-May, this year’s summer preparations seem to be about a month earlier.
