Top 10 Local Online Classifieds Site Provides Antique Store Owners an
Innovative Way to Reach New Customers and Drive Traffic into Their Stores

SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 28, 2006 – LiveDeal.com (www.livedeal.com), one of the nation’s leading free local online classifieds sites, today announced that its Furniture and Merchandise marketplace continues to be one of the site’s fastest-growing categories and an ideal way for antique store owners to quickly and affordably increase their online presence. With LiveDeal, antiques store owners can build new relationships with local and national customers who use the Web to shop for antiques. In a matter of minutes, antique stores can open a free “Basic Store” on LiveDeal.com and post detailed descriptions and photos of their most desirable merchandise.

According to comScore Media Metrix, LiveDeal.com is consistently one of the top 10 most visited online classifieds sites on the Web. By opening a Basic Store on LiveDeal.com, antique store owners can broaden their reach to the more than one million unique users who visit LiveDeal.com each month looking for merchandise.

“With nearly 75 percent of American adults now online, it’s advantageous for antique merchants to have an online strategy,” said Steve Chaffin, vice president of marketing for LiveDeal. “But building, maintaining and driving traffic to a Web site can be costly and time consuming for small, independently owned antique stores. LiveDeal’s free local online classifieds marketplace is a fast and affordable way for antique store owners to get online and market their most sought-after merchandise, which will ultimately drive more foot traffic into their stores.”

Because LiveDeal.com is searchable by zip code or city/state, it’s an effective tool for connecting antique stores with interested buyers from their local community. Consumers can research and preview antiques online at LiveDeal.com and then visit stores in person to inspect, purchase and pick-up items. Antique stores interested in reaching a national audience can also take advantage of LiveDeal’s e-commerce capabilities and sell items directly through the LiveDeal.com site.

Antique stores can enhance their presence on LiveDeal.com by upgrading from a free Basic Store to a Premium Store for $9.95 a month. Premium Stores feature a company logo or store photo, and useful contact information such as a company phone number, business hours and a map. All merchandise posted by LiveDeal Premium Stores receives the added visibility of being viewed above LiveDeal’s Free Listings as a Premium Listing. Antique stores can try LiveDeal’s Premium Stores Program at no charge for the first 30 days.
