"The Web has always been about making things easier, and with our next-generation of Web-based Ad Sales, we have provided advertisers and publishers with a number of features and controls that truly facilitate the classified ad placement process," stated Leslie Bernhard, president and chief executive officer of AdStar, Inc.

AdStar's next-generation solution creates a number of revenue-generating opportunities for our media partners, and allows them to more effectively compete in the "online" world while still capitalizing on the reach and power of their unique print brands."

Advertisers now have the ability to effectively manage their print and online classified ad campaigns through a single online console. AdStar's new technology also provides advertisers with directory tools that allow them to edit current online ad content, schedule ads for additional days, track changes made to an ad once it is purchased, renew ads, cancel online ads and notify publishers of ad cancellation.

AdStar's administrative tools allow publishers to review ads before they are sent to the publishing systems; approve, reject or edit ad content; and cancel or extend online ads. AdStar's media partners also have enhanced administrative tools for quality control, and can use AdStar's latest technology to apply promotional discounts, accept free ads and offer a number of "up-sell" features that will integrate their print and online ad sections.

Bernhard added, "Our new technology is changing the way that advertisers and publishers are working together. Each vertical has unique requirements for a classified advertisement, and with our next-generation solution, advertisers now have the flexibility to design their ads according to according to
