IBUI closed strong on this mornings news - LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 21, 1999--Internet Business's International, Inc. (OTCBB:IBUI) (www.ibui.net) today announced details of an agreement with Microsoft's (Nasdaq:MSFT) MSN (www.msn.com). Under the terms of the agreement, Internet Business's International has contracted for listings as a "Featured Site" when any of 300 distinct keywords are entered into the MSN Search Engine. As a "Featured Site" the links to IBUI's Web sites will be granted premium placement in a specially reserved section on the MSN search results Web page. According to the contract, the only links that can share the Featured Site status for the designated keywords will be those links directing users to Web sites owned by Microsoft itself. IBUI has also disclosed that, as part of the same agreement, it has contracted for banner advertising in the News, Entertainment and Windows Media (www.windowsmedia.com) sections of MSN. The various promotions are targeted to go into effect beginning January 1, 2000. The MSN search engine is accessible not only by users of MSN, but also by any user of an Internet-enabled computer. The site's search engine has recently been redesigned to make it easy for everyone, not just advanced users, to find the information they're looking for. "I think we have all the pieces of the puzzle in place now," said Al Reda, CEO of Internet Business's International. "We've spent months building the components of our Internet offerings and it's time to begin promoting them. What better way to kick things off than by aligning ourselves with the biggest player on the block? "I've seen what MSN is offering," continued Reda, "and I can see what the future holds in terms of their competitive advantages. I've come away impressed. The marketing muscle of the MSN offering is just the shot in the arm we need to put our eCommerce operations at the top of the heap. We're busy right now preparing those 300 keywords to stake out our territory. That means that we'll continue to get advantageous positioning for however long it proves profitable to us."
