NetCreations Tops 5 Million Email Address Mark
Adds Tunes.com, TechRepublic and Seven Other Sites to Opt-In Email Network
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 22, 1999-- NetCreations, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTCR - news), a leading provider of opt-in email marketing services, has increased its PostMasterDirect.com database to more than five million opt-in email addresses of Internet users who have asked to receive targeted email offers, NetCreations President Rosalind Resnick announced today.
NetCreations has also added Tunes.com and eight other Web sites to its opt-in email network, boosting its Internet advertising network to 191 partner sites. Tunes.com, an Internet music network and producer of the Web sites RollingStone.com, TheSource.com and DownBeatJazz.com, will integrate the NetCreations sign-up form with its registration process, enabling visitors to opt in to receive email on topics of interest. Tunes.com will post sign-up forms on the other three music sites.
NetCreations' five other new partner sites are TechRepublic, a community hub for IT professionals on the Web; FastCEO, which offers a comprehensive reference page of news and special interest links for business executives; ProgramFiles.com, which provides freeware and software ranging from educational and financial to games and programming; Quizland, a site featuring quiz shows, puzzles and games, and DrinkMail, a provider of customizable e-cards for any occasion.
Each of the nine Web sites plans to incorporate the NetCreations sign-up form into its site to encourage visitors to opt in to receive email messages from direct marketers. When Web site visitors register to join a list, they check a box next to categories, such as entertainment or computers, that match their needs and interests. List members can change their selected categories as their needs and interests change or opt out of these lists at any time. NetCreations' PostMasterDirect.com service will manage the opt-in email address lists generated by the sign-up forms. The opt-in email addresses are stored in NetCreations' database.
NetCreations preserves its list members' privacy and does not furnish list members' email addresses to direct marketers. Direct marketers can choose lists for their emailings at our PostMasterDirect.com online marketplace at postmasterdirect.com. |
