[Seattle-editorial] RE: Website Safety Tests

[Delisa Foreman]

Hi there,

A few weeks ago I attempted to contact the marketing manager for your website (seattle.indymedia.org) regarding several security tests we performed and the posibility of listing your site within the Safe Shopping Network directory of safest websites. I just wanted to make sure you received my invitation and see if you had any questions or would like to know your scores. The email I sent is below.

Sincerely,

>Hello,

>I have used the website testing technologies here at the Safe Shopping Network (http://www.safeshoppingnetwork.com) to test your site (seattle.indymedia.org) for over 2200 security, usability and performance features. You will be pleased to know that it did quite well. The test is completely harmless and has been performed at the request of thousands of big name merchants. The reason I did the test is because we are currently searching the web for sites with high scores to add to our very popular (over two million shoppers per month) directory of tested safest shopping websites. This being the holidays, our site is being overwhelmed with shoppers searching for quality tested sites. We would like to create new categories or add to the ones we have by listing seattle.indymedia.org. I am not sure if I have the right email address but maybe you could lead me to the right person. If you would forward this to the marketing manager, I would be grateful.

At Safe Shopping Network, we use sophisticated testing technologies to test the top web sites for quality, security and usability. We also have the ability to deliver thousands of targeted, and more importantly, confident consumers proven to be eight times more likely to buy due to increased consumer confidence. Listing your site in the Safe Shopping Network is very effective due to the fact that the two million + users who visit each month are shoppers who prefer not to guess at whether they can trust a website. As we reveal your scores to them, they gain confidence in your company increasing the chance that they will make a purchase. The average click-to-purchase rate is 5.4% for our advertisers, far above the average .07% you get from other sources. This is truly a unique and very effective way to bring more sales to your website.

We provide many high-value pricing packages (http://www.safeshoppingnetwork.com/pricing.cfm) starting at just $350/yr and that includes a 15,000 click guarantee. The different pricing packages include sub-category listings, category listings, full vulnerability/security reports (with solutions), 24/7 website monitoring, and click guarantee for each listing. 

Since it looks like your site fits well into multiple areas, I would be happy to list seattle.indymedia.org in the section of your choice free when you purchase two or more listings. Please give me a call on my direct line: (818) 344-1622 or call our toll free number (866) 29-TRUST (9-5 Pacific Standard Time). For your convenience, it's also possible to sign up online at: http://www.safeshoppingnetwork.com/pricing.cfm.

Thank you for your time,
