\"Discount Web Hosting\" Is Given a New Meaning by Web Hosting Affiliates

Affiliates promoting cheap web hosting packages are introducing new bargains on
already discounted hosting services.

Blaine, Washington - December 11, 2005 - Faced with strong competition, some
promoters of discounted web hosting have employed creative methods to entice
consumers to purchase their hosting packages.

While creative affiliates typically give away valuable information in the form of
free ebooks, Sheriff Guirguis, part owner of visual Directory, decided to try
something new for the holidays, \"We want to test what consumers value most-free
information or monetary rewards. To find the answer, we decided to reward anyone
who buys a hosting package that we promote with a check, or by depositing money
directly to their Paypal account. This is on top of any promotion that the actual
web hosting company provides."

"We know that monetary rewards may not be enough to entice our audience, and that we
need to promote hosting services that present a great deal of value. So we
researched the Net and decided on 5 companies: IX Webhosting, Bluehost, Startlogic,
Powweb and Yahoo! Small Business packages."

"It is our hope that by combining the added value of these hosting services and our
special offers that we will win over the loyalty of our audience and learn more
about their needs."

Visual Directory is testing its new cash rewards during the holidays and will
compare its effectiveness with other types of offers in the next several months.
