The Greater Philadelphia Online Business Directory and City Guide Known as PhillyWired.com Announces Plans to Immediately Offer Co-Branded Advertising to Local Businesses.
Philadelphia, PA (ContentDesk) December 8, 2004 -- PhillyWired.com today announced plans to boost traffic through an aggressive, co-branded print campaign.
The center city-based online city guide and business directory will promote Blockbuster Online and its other high-profile, performance-based advertisers with a "go-card" campaign in select locales.
Initially, the campaign will promote Blockbuster Online's new service which delivers unlimited DVD rentals to your door for a low monthly fee.
Other national advertisers will be featured from time to time as inclusion will be limited to only high converting advertisers.Not unlike the go-cards used to generate magazine subscriptions, PhillyWired will produce and distribute the 4-inch by 6-inch, full color cards for distribution in select neighborhoods. The cards will feature a major brand and no more than 15 local, non-competing businesses.
Go card distribution will begin approximately a week to 10 days before Christmas to capitalize on holiday incentives from Blockbuster and to drive additional sales for local advertisers.
"Co-branded go cards are a tremendous way to simultaneously build a brand and drive site traffic while delivering cost-effective results to both your performance-based and local advertisers", said Michael Alberto, an internet marketing cosultant to PhillyWired.com. "When timed right, like during the holiday shopping season, the results of this type of program are not only immediately measurable, but often exponential", added Alberto..

Television on Your Schedule with a Digital Video Recorder (DVR)
The introduction of the VCR changed so much for the television viewer. Before the introduction of the VCR, you had to watch the show when it was broadcast by the network ? that was your only option. If you recorded your favorite show, you were able to watch it when you wanted to ? and as many times as you wanted to. All you needed was a blank video tape and a VCR. That has all changed with the DVR.A DVR, or Digital Video Recorder, is technology that takes all the great features of a VCR and places it in the digital age.
Instead of multiple tapes, you have a single hard drive. Instead of degrading tape quality issues, shows are now recorded digitally that can last forever. Instead of programming a VCR through a complicated interface of tiny buttons on a remote control, you can program your DVR through a simple point and click interface, possibly even from your home computer.In addition to the ability to watch your shows whenever you want to, there is another benefit to the DVR...
