YP.Com Adds Five National Accounts to Site
Business Wire, June 8, 2005
MESA, Ariz. -- YP Corp. (OTCBB: YPNT), a leading provider of Internet-based Yellow Pages services, announced that five new national accounts have signed an agreement to advertise on the company's Web site, YP.Com. 1-800-Flowers, DentalPlans.com, 3 Geeks and a Mouse, Gurus2Go, and Bids4Rides.com have all chosen to advertise on the site. They will receive "National-Preferred" status which gives them a preferred listing in all cities, as well as sending users directly to their Web sites. If a user chooses "florists," for instance, 1-800-Flowers will appear in a featured box on the screen. Beyond the contextual advertising, 1-800-Flowers will also receive run-of-site advertising (appearing under additional categories) during key holiday periods.
"This is a truly unique opportunity for all these advertisers. Very few sites can deliver this type of contextual advertising that serves both national and local interests. We're excited that these businesses have chosen YP.Com and expect to see many more national advertisers follow their lead," stated Len Watson, VP of sales and marketing for YP Corp.
Peter Bergmann, CEO of YP Corp., stated, "I'm particularly pleased to welcome these five advertisers to our roster of national accounts. 1-800-Flowers has a service I've been using for quite some time now and would highly recommend them to all our users, while DentalPlans.com provides affordable dental coverage to all our users. Both Gurus2Go and 3 Geeks and a Mouse are top-quality computer experts, and Bids4Rides allows the user to determine the price they want to pay for limousine service nationwide. I believe that having these national presences sign on with us is just another indication that our new national advertising initiative is working. Our primary goal remains the same -- be the online yellow pages of choice. Offering quality services like this is what both our users and advertisers are looking for."
