This marketing campaign consists of traditional advertising methods such as direct mail, print media, television and radio, plus non-traditional advertising via the Internet.
SurfWithUs.Net is Sitestar Corporation's third major service to be promoted nationally. The first service promoted on a national basis was the toner and ink cartridge remanufacturing business, CBD Toner Recharge. The second was SurfBoost Web Acceleration Service.
Introductory pricing for SurfWithUs.Net is $9.95 per month for standard dial-up Internet service and $14.95 for accelerated service. All SurfWithUs.Net dial-up services include free email virus filtering, free spam filtering, free tech support and access to thousands of local dial-up numbers throughout the United States.
"We have been test marketing different campaigns and ads over the past several months.

We have developed banners and text links that are being placed on web sites throughout the Internet," according to Sitestar President and CEO Frank R. Erhartic, Jr. He went on to say, "We have hundreds of affiliates already successfully promoting our SurfBoost Web Acceleration service and many of them have also started promoting our SurfWithUs.Net Internet Service.
