INSIDERPAGES.COM BRINGS LOCAL FUNDRAISING TO THE WEB

InsiderPages.com Contributes Money to Community Organizations when Members Write Web Reviews of Local Businesses


SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - (October 29th, 2007) - Insider Pages™ (www.insiderpages.com), a subsidiary of Citysearch, operating business of IAC (NASDAQ: IACI), today announced the nationwide rollout of its revolutionary online fundraising program enabling organizations to quickly raise money by writing online reviews of local businesses. Supporters simply write reviews on Insider Pages about businesses they use such as doctors, hairstylists, home contractors, or restaurants. For each review they write, Insider Pages makes a donation to their organization. Now schools, little leagues, clubs and even national foundations can raise thousands of dollars without having to sell anything or ask supporters for donations.

"Insider Pages Fundraising is a great option for busy parents who want an alternative to traditional fundraisers," said Eric Peacock, General Manager, Insider Pages. "Parents that participated in our pilot program really enjoyed writing online reviews of their favorite businesses. They found it much easier to fit into their hectic schedules than selling products to family and neighbors. And they felt like they were giving back to their community by sharing recommendations of great local businesses in their towns."

"In only three weeks, we raised enough money for new computers for our school, "said pilot program participant Chris Sullivan of Forest Avenue Elementary School in Montgomery, Alabama. "It was really useful to see what businesses were recommended by other parents like me. This is the best fundraiser I have been involved with and I would highly recommend it to any group."

Perfect for All Kinds of Organizations and Easy to Launch

The program is open to all types of organizations. Whether it's a school raising money for new computers, a soccer league trying to build new fields or buy jerseys, or a national foundation raising money for their cause, Insider Pages makes it easy to get started. This self service program has three simple steps to follow:

  • Sign Up - Start at www.insiderpages.com by providing your organization's information and establishing a goal and start date. Insider Pages emails you back with all the information you'll need to get started.
