Business Editors & Technology Writers

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 13, 2000

Everyones Internet (www.ev1.net), the largest independent Internet service provider (ISP) in Texas, today announced that the company's president and CEO (and self-titled Head Surfer), Robert Marsh is featured in this month's DB Insight: Emerging Company Profiles on the popular dbusiness Internet Web site (www.dbusiness.com). The feature article, written by dbusiness' Mary Ann Tawasha, traces the short, but profitable history of this emerging Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Marsh is delighted with the timeliness of the online article. "We're currently in the process of upgrading our core services such as e-mail, Usenet news and Web hosting as we begin our statewide DSL rollout with our DSL partner IP-Communications," he states.

What started two years ago as a three-man ISP operation with 100 subscribers, and now boasts more than 80,000 subscribers throughout Texas, Nevada, California, Atlanta and Chicago, is attributable to Marsh's "Just Ten Bucks(TM)" plan, which was originally intended as a two-week promotional piece but soon became integrated as the cornerstone of the company's culture. The increase in subscribers forced Marsh to expand the company's capabilities. More user-friendly features were added to the system, and the major push of DSL lines throughout Texas at competitive prices continues to bolster membership.

Increased services and under-pricing the competition are always forefront in Marsh's mind. "With our broader feature set and lower prices -- along with our innovative marketing strategy -- we are definitely set apart from ISPs like Internet America (Nasdaq:GEEK) and Flash.net (Nasdaq:FLAS)," he declares.

The online article is accessible by going to www.dbusiness.com and clicking on the "Houston" icon. dbusiness.com is the only online service dedicated to covering city-specific, real-time business news on the Internet. Their news bureaus are staffed by full-time reporters and editors in major markets throughout the U.S., offering breaking business news, nationwide.
