Five Across Announces Partnership with pairNIC
14 June 2005
PALO ALTO, Calif. -- June 14, 2005 -- Five Across, Inc., the Silicon Valley start-up that revolutionized small business web site creation with Bubbler(TM), its drag and drop web publishing service, today announced a partnership with pairNIC, a leading domain registration service.
Bubbler customers will now be able to personalize their web site address by easily purchasing a domain name from pairNIC, which will point to their web site created with Bubbler.
"The partnership with Five Across is a great opportunity for our customers to get the most out of the domain registration services that we provide," said Tim Gaichas, VP of Business Development.
"We really want to make it easy for Bubbler users. Now, thanks to our partnership with pairNIC, they can quickly redirect existing or new domains to the web sites they create and host at bubbler.com," said Peter Karnig, VP of Business Development at Five Across.
Bubbler users create web pages by dragging and dropping their content -- including digital photographs, movies, audio, and other multimedia assets, as well as business documents like spreadsheets, documents, and presentations. Page navigation is generated automatically; text and pages are created in real time; pages are dynamically created using high-quality designer templates to produce a professional web site. A group model provides wiki-like collaboration for authorized users and content can be syndicated with a simple mouse click through built in RSS capability.
Five Across offers Bubbler Hosted accounts starting at $5 per month, depending on storage and bandwidth usage. A free Bubbler 1(TM) account is available for content contributors or for simple text blogging. The Five Across OEM Server for ISPs and hosting providers and the Five Across Workgroup Server are both available. Please find additional information at www.bubbler.com and www.pairnic.com.
