FloridaBridalGuide.com Launches By Offering Lifetime Listings and Links For a Limited Time

Jensen Beach, FL (PRWEB) June 4, 2007 -- FloridaBridalGuide.com, the newest local site in the popular WeddingBasics.com Wedding Network, launched officially on June 1, 2007. To kick off the launch, FloridaBridalGuide.com, is offering a lifetime listing for qualified wedding professionals from now until June 30.

"We believe FloridaBridalGuide.com will be just as popular as our sites in Atlanta, Alabama and Chicago. Those sites promote over 800 local wedding professionals and are extremely popular with brides…AtlantaBridal.com alone averages 3800 visitors per day! We believe that local wedding professionals will see the value of our network if they just try FloridaBridalGuide.com. With nothing to lose and brides to gain - why not try it?" says Founder, Lei Lydle.

All lifetime listings on FloridaBridalGuide.com will include a link to a Web site, up to 3 photos in a photo gallery and access to the online bride leads. These lifetime listings will remain active for as long as the wedding company is in business or wishes to be on the site. Lifetime listings will never have to pay a renewal fee of any kind for their regular listing on FloridaBridalGuide.com. To register a lifetime listing, visit the following page on FloridaBridalGuide.com:

"Because we already publish several extremely popular planning sites, including our first in Atlanta, AtlantaBridal.com, brides are already finding and using FloridaBridalGuide.com!" Lydle says.

Denise Hudson from A Garden Party has seen quite an increase in her business after signing up with AtlantaBridal.com. "I am so impressed with this website. I have already booked 2 weddings, and have several other appointments. In less than 1 month of advertising! Love it!…"

Jena Marullo wasn't sure where to best spend her advertising dollars when she first launched her event facility, Glendalough Manor, but now she is a believer in AtlantaBridal.com. She wrote the following in an email to Lei Lydle, "85% of our clients come from AtlantaBridal.com! We love AtlantaBridal.com and cannot speak highly enough about it. Thanks!"

But what about the hundreds of wedding sites that are already out there?

"Yes, it seems like there are a million wedding web sites out there but they are not all the same. I have a formula that really works in local markets…. and believe me, many have tried to copy AtlantaBridal.com since I started in 1997. But so far, according to my clients, no other site has been able to send them the type of business that I have consistently delivered to them year after year…. I know wedding professionals in Florida will absolutely love our service… we will send them wedding business…"

FloridaBridalGuide.com is a division of the Atlanta based publisher, IBS Design LLC, which has been in business since November of 1997. IBS Design has been publishing several popular wedding planning web sites throughout the country for over 9 years.
