Boston, MA (PRWEB) May 27, 2009

Search Engine Marketing Firm iProspect? today announced that it is ranked as the number one search engine marketing agency in the 2009 edition of Internet Retailer Magazine's Top 500? Guide as a result of being cited as the agency of record for 18 of the e-Tailers on the list. In addition, Range Online Media, the Dallas-Fort Worth based agency acquired by iProspect in September 2008, was listed as the search agency of record for six of the e-Tailers. Together, the two agencies dominate the search vendor category with a total of 24 top-ranked retail clients, with annual retailer sales of more than $ 14.6 billion, almost four times more than the nearest agency ranked.

"Everyone knows that the Top 500 Guide is the Who's Who of e-Tailing," said Robert Murray, CEO, iProspect. "If an e-Tailer is on that list, then they are definitely a major player in the market. It also demonstrates that they take search very seriously as it is absolutely critical in the e-Tail industry." Murray continued, "It is validating to see so many of our clients on this year's list, and to be ranked as the number one search vendor."


An important industry resource, the Top 500 Guide provides profiles on each of the 500 biggest web merchants in North America, including corporate strategies and merchandising and marketing tactics.

Find More Bergdorf Press Releases

Announcing?The 2011 Internet Marketer of the Year and Runner-Up

Duluth, GA (PRWEB) January 6, 2011 ?

Mass Money Makers? seven-day ClickBank launch has officially come to a close. Not only did the super affiliate technology developed by Matt Bacak and Alen Sultanic shatter records, but it also pitted some of the world?s top promoters against one another for the title of 2011 Internet Marketer of the Year. As the dust still settles on Mass Money Makers? formerly unheard-of achievements, Shawn Casey managed to eke out the win for most sales.


With 24 hours still left to its launch, on Day 6 Sultanic and Bacak received official word that Mass Money Makers had broken the ClickBank gravity record by hitting 1468.50 on the digital marketplace. That figure shattered the former record of 1351. With a full day still left in the launch, Bacak and Sultanic had proven their skeptics wrong, achieving the so-called impossible ahead of schedule.


Meanwhile, with Day 7 looming on the horizon, the hard-fought battle for Internet Marketer of the Year began capturing the Internet marketing community?s attention. Whoever secured the most sales throughout Mass Money Makers? launch period would walk away with the crown, but that contest would come down to the final minutes before being settled.


In the end, not only did they have a gravity of 1651 but Shawn Casey fought back hard enough to steal away the title from the previous three days? top-selling duo, Paul Liburd and Antonio Giuditta, by a mere 27 sales. For their superstar promotional efforts, Liburd and Giuditta earned $ 5,000 in bonus cash and Internet Marketer of the Year Runner-Up status. Casey?s first-place finish snagged him $ 10,000 in cash and the 2011 Internet Marketer of the Year nod.


Now that Bacak and Sultanic have had a few moments to reflect on their endeavor, they?re savoring their accomplishments. ?To paraphrase a popular saying, ?We went looking for something powerful

and found ourselves.? All the history-making and record-setting are nice, but we discovered something more powerful from all of this. Seeing our promoters, affiliates and JV partners battle it out for us, we witnessed just how truly powerful they are. Without them, none of this would have been possible. So in a sense, we found them ? and just how loyal they are. No amount of ClickBank glory can ever top that.?


Regardless of his or her ultimate placing on the Mass Money Makers? sales chart, Matt Bacak and Alen Sultanic want to thank every promoter who came out and helped them make history. And as an expression of that gratitude, Bacak vows that this same team of supporters ? himself included ? will come out to support them when they need it.


Internet marketing affiliates and JV partners who would like to help Mass Money Makers continue to rack up ClickBank sales and conversions can learn more by contacting Tamara Smith at (770) 623-3008.

The Internet Makes a Lousy Babysitter - New Commercial Is a Wake up Call to Parents

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) May 10, 2011

The third installment of the Pete the Porno Puppet commercial series is set to release today.? XXXchurch.com is the largest website helping those that are struggling with pornography and sexual addiction.


In 2004, XXXchurch filmed its first PSA with Pete the Porno Puppet and porn producer JimmyD. It was featured on The Daily Show. In 2007, Pete was back and caught the ear of Jay Leno and the Tonight Show. This time around, Pete is back with his strongest message ever and is joined by seven porn stars and two 8-year old boys.


Founder of XXXchurch, Craig Gross known as the "porn pastor" and porn legend, Ron Jeremy, have traveled around the country debating the issue of pornography for the past four years. They have become great friends although they disagree on the effects of pornography. The one thing they do agree on is that pornography should not be seen by kids. Ron Jeremy says, "Porn is consenting adults having consenting sex for consenting adults to watch."? Ron has always said he will do whatever he can to help keep porn away from children.


Ron enlisted the help of several friends from the adult industry including Brenda Black, Brandy Anniston, Tia Gunn, Rayveness and FattyD.


XXXchurch enlisted former porn star Crissy Moran, two 8-year old actors and a puppet named Pete to pull the commercial off.


Craig Gross says, "Parents are clueless about what their kids are doing online. The commercial should bother any parent who watches it. I hope parents see these two young boys misspelling words on the computer and realize this?happens everyday.?Many parents are unaware of their children?s online activities and the security threats that surround those activities."?


-The average age of someone finding porn online is 11.?

-Sex and Porn are among the top 5 search terms for kids under 18.??

-Only 3% of adult web sites require age verification.?

-Fewer than half (48 percent) of U.S. parents set parental controls on their family computer.


Parents need to get educated and get control of what is going on in their house. The campaign is a wake up call to parents that the internet makes a lousy babysitter and pornography is just a typo away. More resources and tools for parents can be found at http://www.xxxchurch.com/parents


XXXchurch is the maker of X3watch software which is used by over 1 million people online. The software monitors where you go online and sends reports to accountability partners of any questionable website.


XXXchurch will be airing a 60 second broadcast version of the commercial nationwide in months of May and June.


An extended cut of the commercial can be seen online now that runs just over two minutes. Both commercials can be download or viewed online.


To schedule an interview with Craig Gross, Pete or any of the people involved in the commercial shoot please contact press(at)xxxchurch(dot)com or 626-628-3387.

PC Pandora Computer Monitoring Software Will Help Parents Keep Kids Safe From Internet Predators as They Head Back to School

Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) September 01, 2011

It is official: schools across the United States are back in session. Over the past month, retailers have slashed prices on new PCs in hopes of enticing parents to make a big purchase for the new school year. James Leasure, co-founder of Pandora Corp., is urging parents to protect those new machines with a proper monitoring tool. Right now until Labor Day, the company is offering their flagship computer monitoring software at 50-percent off and extending the free trial period of their subscription-based add-on LIVE! service as a back-to-school promotion.


?The computer has become a necessary tool for school,? says Leasure. ?But parents must understand this very powerful technology they are placing in very young hands. It is essential to have tools in place that monitor how your child is utilizing their new connection to the world.?


Pandora Corp. is the maker of PC Pandora computer monitoring software. The program records all activity, both on and offline, through detailed screen captures and data logs. Parents are able to get full details on who their kids are talking to, how they are spending their time online, what programs they are using, what websites they are visiting, and much more. Rather than relying on programs that scan social network profiles and search only for select words and phrases, PC Pandora gives parents full knowledge of what their kids are doing so they can be absolutely certain they are safe.


PROTECTION FROM ANYWHERE

While PC Pandora?s built-in IRIS feature sends email updates and alerts on PC activity to busy parents at work, it?s the PC Pandora LIVE! service that really gives parents an edge. The subscription-based add-on lets parents view their child?s activity and make changes to parental controls from anywhere they can access the Internet, including most smartphones.


?The LIVE! service lets you view screenshots of recorded activity, something that is not featured in the IRIS updates,? says Leasure. ?It also allows you to make changes to the parental controls. For example, if your child has found a new pornography website that slips through the filters you have set up, you will see them visiting the site and can make immediate changes to blacklist the site.?


BACK-TO-SCHOOL SPECIAL OFFER

As a special back-to-school promotion, Pandora Corp. is offering the PC Pandora software at 50% off the regularly discounted price, plus a free month of the PC Pandora LIVE! service.


?In this rough economy, we don?t want parents to forgo their child?s safety online because of family finance issues,? says Leasure. ?We want to give parents the best tools available to keep their kids safe online, so we?re offering a huge discount on PC Pandora and extending the LIVE! service free trial period. It?s going to give parents a major jump on keeping up with the new computer and Internet activity that their kids are sure to dive into.?


Leasure says the PC Pandora computer monitoring software can be used to keep kids safe from one of the biggest threats they face online: Internet predators.


STOP INTERNET PREDATORS

Ask any officer of the law and they will tell you that Internet predators are real. Since school was last in session, the weekly Wednesday Internet predator series on Pandora?s Blog has relayed coverage of over 70 Internet predators caught, either busted in sting operations or discovered after their victims (or their families) came forward.


Says Leasure: ?In just the last couple of months, we?ve seen a lot of guys get busted all over the country for attempting to lure minors for sex, including online sting operations in Florida, Alabama, Virginia and Pennsylvania. But there were also many cases of predators achieving their goals and having sex with kids as young as 13 and 14. These are facts and real cases; every parent should be aware of these horrifying realities.?


Monitoring software can play a huge role in preventing Internet predators from sparking a relationship with your kids. When a child has made a new ?friend? online, parents are able to see first-hand how their children are interacting with them. If the friendship starts to turn into a relationship, parents will have the knowledge they need to sit down and talk to their kids and prevent disaster. In some situations, it may save a child?s life.


?Since PC Pandora records all communication, parents will have actual documents they can turn over to police to aid in an arrest,? explains Leasure. ?In the event that a child has gone missing, a parent will have communication records and access to possible secret accounts their child had set up. This information could literally be a lifesaver if used to aid in the search of a missing child. You won?t need to wait for police to request records from social networking sites or Internet service providers while the trail goes cold; you?ll have everything you need right there.?


Leasure tells parents they must know who their kids are talking to online, and also, who is trying to talk to them: ?The bottom line is these guys are real. They do exist. And they are trying to solicit young kids for sex. But as a parent, there are tools at your disposal that will help you make sure they don?t succeed in luring your child.?


For more information on how PC Pandora can help parents keep their kids safe from online predators, visit http://www.pcpandora.com. Parents can use the code HALFOFF at checkout to get PC Pandora at half price and get a free month of the LIVE! service. The promotion runs through Labor Day (September 5, 2011).


About PC Pandora: Pandora Corporation was formed with one goal ? to help our customers monitor, control and protect their families and themselves online. First released in mid 2005, PC Pandora has been constantly upgraded to industry-leading specifications and has received accolades from users, reviewers and even school districts and law enforcement agencies, who use the program to help in the day-to-day supervision of the children and citizens they are charged with protecting. The company website devotes space to helping parents by providing them with 18 Tips to Safe Surfing and Pandora?s Blog, where current news in the world of online safety is discussed regularly. In addition, the Pandora Corp. has made the PD Pandora Internet Safety Symposium available to schools and law enforcement as a free resource for spreading internet safety awareness to parents. Over the past few years, PC Pandora has vaulted into a leadership position for parental control software by boasting a combination of features that are unparalleled in the monitoring industry. In 2010, Version 6.0 was released, again widening the spectrum of coverage and protection offered by the program. Concurrently released with 6.0, the web-based PC Pandora LIVE! service affords parents the ability to keep their kids safe from anywhere at anytime. PC Pandora is also now available through the Pandora Corp. store at Amazon.com.
