Webloyalty continues European growth in Paris

NORWALK, CT, October 19, 2007– Webloyalty.com (www.webloyalty.com), a leading provider of online, technology-based marketing services, has been named to the number seven slot on Deloitte's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Connecticut, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the nation's leading professional services organizations. Rankings are based on the percentage revenue growth over five years from 2002 – 2006.

Webloyalty CEO and co-founder, Rick Fernandes, credits a strong technology platform and exceptional employees for the company's 860 percent revenue growth from 2002 – 2006. "We are honored to be selected for the Fast 50 list, and in the top 10, for the third year in a row. We thank our talented and committed employees for helping us to achieve this goal. With their dedication and the strong technology that our company is known for, we look forward to continued growth and success."

Webloyalty was the number one fastest growing technology company in Connecticut in 2005 and 2006, the first company in the history of the award to score top ratings for two consecutive years. This year, its more than 860 percent increase in revenues from 2002 - 2006 resulted in a number seven ranking in this year's Technology Fast 50 for Connecticut. The average increase in revenues among companies who made the Technology Fast 50 for this region was 738 percent.

"To rank on Deloitte's Technology Fast 50, companies must have phenomenal revenue growth over five years. Webloyalty has proven to be one of the fast-growth success stories in Connecticut, and we applaud their dedication to making their vision a reality," said Kevin Buckley, Senior Relationship Manager, Deloitte & Touche LLP, Connecticut.

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be headquartered in North America, and be a company that owns proprietary technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of technology. Using other companies' technology or intellectual property in a unique way does not qualify.

Companies from the 16 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America's top 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies.
