OnlinePress.com Unveils Web Market Index

Posted on January 20, 1998

OnlinePress.com, a daily online publication focusing on Internet news, culture, trends and current events, recently launched with its initial issue on January 5, 1998.

Every Monday, OnlinePress.com features its Web Market Index (WMI), a weekly analysis and ranking of the top 15 online brands. The Web Market Index evaluates only Web-based properties. Corporate/product sites and online versions of existing media brands are not considered.

The purpose of the WMI is to determine and present, each week, which online franchises are establishing the freshest, most viable and valuable brands, unique to the Web. The WMI spotlights the Internet as a medium, a marketplace and a business, leaving the "cool site" mentality to others.

OnlinePress.com will also feature daily columns from its staff, covering the gamut of Internet news, site reviews, online commentary, interviews, special segments from online insiders and daily trade show reports and analysis.

Article submissions are accepted and interactive message boards are available for discussion and article feedback.
