ACTION ITEMS

ExperTelligence, Inc., http://www.ExperTelligence.com , a pioneer in Web database server technology, has announced WebData, http://www.webdata.com , a comprehensive database-only portal for the Internet. The company simultaneously announced the WebData Network, http://www.webdatanetwork.com , a link exchange service featuring what it says is the industry's only query-based banner ad exchange.

In contrast to major search engines such as Yahoo!, Infoseek and Excite, which index text only, WebData.com is built upon a proprietary intelligent agent and HTML parsing technology that collects, organizes and builds relationships between searchable databases. This allows a user who needs concrete data, which can be difficult to find using conventional search engines, to locate the appropriate database immediately.

"Finding a database on the web, was like finding a needle in a haystack," said Denison Bollay, president of ExperTelligence, Inc. "WebData.com catalogues only databases, and uses a patent-pending user interface to provide rapid access to them."

The WebData Network, the first link exchange for Web databases, is highlighted by the industry's only interactive query-based banner ads. When a banner is clicked, it instantly takes the user to the results of the related database query through an embedded form in the ad. The value to advertisers is the high click-through ratio.

"The WebData Network is ideally suited to database sites because banner queries instantly send users to the related database and display the results. The banner ads are not just a static image, but an interactive tool to draw users to our clients sites," said Robert Reali, vice president of ExperTelligence, Inc. "The combined proprietary, patent-pending technologies in the WebData.com and WebData Network clearly provide the next level in Internet technology and revenue-generating streams."
