REDWOOD CITY, Calif. -- MyBuys, the leading provider of personalized product recommendations, today announced that an additional 12 retailers, across multiple categories, have launched MyBuys to personalize the shopping experience and drive online sales. MyBuys turns Website traffic into sales by providing personalized product recommendations for each shopper.

With the launch of a dozen more retailers, MyBuys deepens its expertise in several key retail vertical columns, including bridal, children's apparel, home improvement, crafts, footwear, sporting goods and toys. Many of the retailers recently implementing MyBuys are leaders from Internet Retailer's Top 500 list, including Hancock Fabrics, HobbyTron, Limoges Jewelry and Golf Galaxy, part of the Dick's Sporting Goods brand.

Recent go-live client, Austad's Golf, has been thrilled with MyBuys' results. "Personalizing our site with MyBuys recommendations and email alerts helps us win and keep customers in a highly competitive market. We're big believers in the power of personalization," says Joel Harrington, Internet operations and marketing director, Austad's Golf. "There was very little to do on our end. The whole implementation process was virtually painless, and when the program went live, it worked nearly 100% the way we wanted it to from day one. As for results, they are already exceeding my expectations. MyBuys started generating incremental revenue for us from the first day."

"Creating relevance by personalizing product recommendations has become an essential competitive tool for online retailers." said Robert Cell, CEO, MyBuys.
