patrao is an internet advertising network functioning since January 2002, originally used mainly as a private advertising system for a select group of websites and publishers. Due to overwhelming requests from members as well as others we have now opened our services to all.

patrao is the Portuguese and Konkanni word for "boss". The site aims at making its members patrao's by helping advertisers to reach their target audiences and increase sales as well as helping publishers to earn incredible sums of income from their websites through advertising.

patrao is run and managed from Goa, India (former Portuguese colony) by Mario Alvares, a Software and Internet Consultant, who has worked with over 50 marketing websites including search engines, banner exchange networks, affiliate memberships and MLM's. With the vast experience earned, he has designed and setup patrao.com which gives members the best of Internet advertising technology.

Continuous improvement, research and technology investments along with reduced offshore development costs make patrao one the most cost effective solutions for the ever demanding American, Asian & European markets.
