Press Release Body = http://FoundLocally.com Media Inc. has just launched a new
community information portal catering to Mississauga and the suburbs just west of
Toronto. The 7-year-old company now has 23 sites servicing major cities and
communities across Canada from Victoria, BC to St John\'s, Nfld. FoundLocally sites
consistently attract more than 10 million visitors a year.

FoundLocally.com Media Inc. has just launched a new community information portal for
Mississauga, Ontario [http://Mississauga.FoundLocally.com]. This site will serve
Mississauga, Brampton and the Peel Region, in Ontario\'s Golden Horseshoe region.
The Mississauga site also includes lots of information about and relating to
Toronto\'s Pearson International Airport, including the hospitality businesses, some
of which are actually situated in the neighboring Etobicoke area of Toronto/

This adds to existing sites in the Toronto are http://Oakville.FoundLocally.com
(Oakville, Burlington & Halton), http://Hamilton.FoundLocally.com,
http://Niagara.FoundLocally.com (Niagara Falls & St Catharines), and
http://Barrie.FoundLocally.com (Barrie, the Muskoka Region, and Georgian Bay from
the Bruce Peninsula to Parry Sound).

http://FoundLocally.com \'s portal sites provide comprehensive information about
each community including travel, entertainment, shopping, neighborhoods, sports,
education and government. They are an excellent trip-planning resource for both
business and leisure travelers. Site visitors can browse about a thousand pages of
background information, photos and maps about each community, and popular resources
like weekly ski reports, movie show times and golf courses listings.

The sites also include a useful business directory at
http://Mississauga.FoundLocally.com/Business where visitors can search for
businesses by name, category, or location. At
http://Mississauga.FoundLocally.com/General/FreeListings.htm, free business listings
are entered by businesses themselves and they provide descriptions, contact details
and other marketing information. FoundLocally.com is a popular marketing tool for
small businesses often run from a home phone or cell phone, and therefore excluded
from the phone directory. And once registered, businesses can post jobs, events,
special offers and news announcements as part of their listings. This service is
free and well suited to those businesses without a web site. Local businesses in the
Mississauga area may add themselves by going to http://Mississauga.FoundLocally.com
and clicking on \"Free Listings\" or at
http://Mississauga.FoundLocally.com/General/FreeListings.htm

The site earns its revenues from traditional web \"banner advertising\" and optional
\"Logos & Links\" in the business directory, which combines a web site hot-link,
placement priority before free listings, and logo placement on all listing pages,
for a small annual fee. Significant discounts are given to non-profit groups, and to
organizations with multiple establishments.

Communities now covered by the portal include: Victoria, Greater Vancouver, Fraser
Valley, Okanagan-Shuswap, Banff & The Rockies, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Regina,
Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie, Sudbury, Barrie-Muskoka, Niagara Falls,
Hamilton, Oakville-Halton, Mississauga-Peel, Ottawa-Gatineau, Fredericton,
Charlottetown, Halifax, and St John\'s.
