Recognized for leadership in emerging technology

ORLANDO, FL - PayPerPost, the leading marketplace for advertisers to reach bloggers, videographers, photographers, podcasters and social networks, today announced that it has been chosen by AlwaysOn Media as one of the AO Media 100 Top Private Companies. The AO Media 100 is a power list of the top private digital media companies. PayPerPost was handpicked by the AO Media editorial team based on a set of five criteria--innovation, market potential, customer adoption, media buzz and investor value creation.

PayPerPost and the AO Media 100 will be honored at the AO Media executive summit January 29-31, 2007 at The Mandarin Oriental Hotel in New York City. The summit will focus on the forces that are disrupting user behavior and creating new opportunities in marketing, branding, advertising, and public relations.

"The AO Media 100 are creating new revenue opportunities in the more than $16.4 billion online advertising market by disrupting traditional media and advertising models," said Tony Perkins, founder and editor in chief of AlwaysOn. "They are innovating by applying game-changing technology to key sectors including user-generated content, technology-enablers, mobile marketing, community platforms, Web analytics, and online advertising services."

The AO Media 100 was selected from over 1,000 companies, peer-nominated by leading venture capitalists, investment bankers and industry analysts.

PayPerPost is the leading marketplace for Consumer Generated Advertising. Through its unique network, PayPerPost connects mainstream marketers with bloggers and other consumer content generators to write about products and services in exchange for compensation.
