LYNCHBURG, Va., July 29, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Internet Service Provider Sitestar Corporation (OTCBB:SYTE) today announced it has officially launched its new SurfBoost Affiliate Program. This new program offers Affiliate partners the opportunity to earn a commission for every person that registers for a free SurfBoost Web Accelerator trial.
According to Sitestar President Frank R. Erhartic, Jr., "We are excited to be able to offer this Affiliate Program to our existing and potential Affiliates. Now others can help us get the word out and share in the success of a web acceleration technology that actually works for dial-up users."
Qualified individuals and organizations who would like to participate in the Affiliate Program can sign up at the www.surfboost.com website.

About the SurfBoost Web Accelerator
The SurfBOOST Web Accelerator is a client/server application that allows any Internet user with dial-up access to increase the speed of their web browsing an average of three to five times faster. After installation of the SurfBOOST program on the client's machine, all web traffic is redirected to one of Sitestar's compression servers. All components of the websites being accessed are compressed according to the compression settings configured on the client-side application. These components are then streamed to the client's computer at a fraction of the size. SurfBOOST Internet acceleration also takes advantage of caching technology and eliminates the need for multiple requests for the many components of a webpage. This allows for even more efficient delivery of the web data.
