Broadspire Unveils Complete, Pre-configured Web Presence Packages, Making Online Business Development Affordable and Accessible for Small Business [March 11, 2004]

LOS ANGELES (March 11, 2004) – BroadSpire (www.broadspire.com), a leading managed IT services provider, today introduced complete, pre-configured Web presence packages with consultation services, giving small businesses an easy and cost-effective way to get their Web sites and online businesses up and generating revenue – fast.

Delivered through its BroadSpire Express™ unit, which provides small and mid-size businesses an enterprise-class hosting infrastructure, the new packages are designed to meet a variety of Internet needs – from a single-page Web site to a 1,000+-page corporate community. BroadSpire and a variety of its partner companies are providing the package offerings.

Categorized by the number of HTML pages, the packages come with professional web design, graphics, custom logo design, a shopping cart system with order import into Intuit’s QuickBooks, capabilities for product insertion into the shopping cart, site marketing statistics, site hosting, optional monthly maintenance, email account configuration and domain registration. In addition, BroadSpire’s Web design experts provide consultation services regarding the site’s creative design, marketing approach and navigational system.

Package deployment requires a minimal one-time set-up fee, along with a flat-rate fee that includes the design, consultation and one year of hosting. BroadSpire also offers financing options for qualified businesses. For more information, visit the company’s Web site at www.broadspire.com.

With this new offering, BroadSpire is accomplishing what the larger companies like Yahoo! and AOL cannot – delivering an intimate level of service to small businesses, helping them establish and maintain a presence on the Web with an enterprise-class hosting infrastructure at a price any company can afford.

“Helping small businesses succeed online requires more than just bundled products,” said Suresh Srinivasan, president, BroadSpire. “Along with our Web design packages, we’re offering the expertise and creativity of a leading IT outsourcing firm to companies that may not otherwise be able to afford expert design consultation and enterprise-class hosting. Our feature-packed options and affordable pricing make us the clear choice for anyone seeking a creative, technology-driven Internet presence that requires 100 percent performance and service level guarantees.”

Each package also includes the following features:

· Professional design – BroadSpire Express designers will create multiple mock-ups, designed specifically for each client, from which the company can choose.

· Fonts and styles – Clients can use their own custom fonts, or choose from BroadSpire’s selection.

· Artwork/photo scanning of up to 15 images, photographs or pieces of artwork per Web page, including formatting, cropping and re-sizing if needed.

Optional services, for nominal fees, include additional graphics, pages and items in the shopping cart, animated graphics, chat rooms, discussion lists, guest books, reader polls, online quizzes, visitor hit counter, professional copyrighting, blogs, banner rotation system, mailing list system and more.

Package offerings will evolve as additional third-party participants come aboard. BroadSpire welcomes additional prospective partners to contact the company at partners@broadspire.com.

“We’re designing our packages to make the process of creating a Web presence easy and realistic for virtually any organization,” said Srinivasan. “Small businesses will find plenty of design, feature and technology options to make their Web sites strategic, creative business tools – putting them ahead of their competition.”
