Enthropia Launches Next Generation Website Software from Evo-Dev

EvoArticles 2.0 and evoTopsites 2.0 offer new features for website management.

Enthropia, Inc., and its website software division Evo-Dev, announced today the re-launch of website management products evoArticles 2.0 and evoTopsites 2.0 with a new focus toward consumer’s time and their desire to concentrate on content versus management of their website.

Content has long been the key to a successful website but managing and trying to update files, design changes, and granting access to multiple users can be difficult and time consuming. EvoArticles 2.0, a product of Evo-Dev, addresses user’s needs by offering easy user and administration interfaces while providing the customization tools they need to make a website their own. Daniel Coburn, Operations Manager for Evo-Dev said, “The Internet has been a great way to publish and get your message, column or article out to the public. Managing multiple writers, editing articles and trying to keep up with the community has become a long and monotonous task. Uploading and managing files and edits can take time away from your focus, the content. This is why, with the success of the original evoArticles, the new 2.0 release focuses on the consumer’s time by providing online documentation, an improved client area and active support forums.”

Go Daddy's Super Bowl Ad Receives Unprecedented Publicity

GoDaddy.com, the No. 1 registrar of domain names, announced today that its first-ever Super Bowl advertisement was a resounding success, as measured by independent third parties.

Go Daddy's Super Bowl commercial ran during the first quarter of the game, but was subsequently pulled by the NFL and FOX from its scheduled 2nd airing during the game's final two minute warning.

According to multivision, inc. (a leader in the collection and analysis of real-time broadcast corporate intelligence), the ensuing media coverage of the pulled advertisement garnered GoDaddy.com more publicity than any other Super Bowl advertiser. According to multivision's "Super Bowl: Monitoring the Advertising Buzz - 2005," GoDaddy.com's post-Super Bowl "Share of Voice" ("SOV") from February 7 - 11 was a tremendous, and unprecedented, 51.14%. This is the largest SOV attributed to any Super Bowl advertiser during the past two years, and possibly ever. (SOV is the percentage of times an advertiser is mentioned in all Super Bowl stories aired on national, cable and the top 50 local television networks. For example, if there are ten stories and a company is mentioned three times, its' SOV is 30%.)
