Shopster.com Unveils Free Merchant Network

CALGARY, June 30 /CNW/ - Shopster.com announced today the launch of
the world's largest online Merchant Network. The Shopster Merchant
Network is a one-stop shop for online sellers and suppliers to manage
all aspects of their business. Users of the network are empowered with
tools to manage their buying and selling relationships. In an industry
first, it is free to join.

"Shopster.com is introducing social networking for your products,"
says Sarath Samarasekera, CEO and co-founder of Shopster.com. "Sites
like Facebook and LinkedIn struggle to monetize, but the Shopster
network is about making money for our users which aligns our
interests. Your success is our success, and it's free to join, so
there really is no risk."

According to Paul McCluskey, Shopster's EVP Research and Development,
the Network is the product of five years of e-commerce development and
extensive research with Shopster's large existing user base.

"We wanted to release something that not only met, but exceeded the
expectations of the market," says McCluskey. "The Merchant Network
takes traditional software as a service (SaaS) and pushes it farther
than ever before, growing more powerful and more useful with each new
user. You don't use Shopster to run your business, Shopster is your
business. Cheaper, faster, more powerful. What every network and every
platform has been striving for."

In addition to providing a proven, stable platform for building online
stores, the new Shopster Merchant Network will allow you to:

- Dramatically reduce inventory costs
- Connect with suppliers and sellers immediately and manage those
relationships
- Integrate online commerce activities under one portal
- Enhance search engine discoverability ("search engine optimization"
or SEO)

Merchants and suppliers are encouraged to sign up at
http://www.shopster.com at no charge.
