)--a Troy, Mich.-based provider of Web Design and Web Marketing services--has been selected by Lombardo Homes and American Heartland Homes to provide Web Design, Web Marketing, Blogging, and Web Hosting services A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own websites accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing  for ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition's Detroit Project. American Heartland homes, one of Metro Detroit's leading builders along with Lombardo Homes, the fourth largest homebuilder in Southeastern Michigan will be building a new home for one lucky Detroit area family.

"Our successful, long-standing relationship with Awecomm, as well as their proven ability to quickly turn around quality web marketing and design projects under pressure made them a clear choice for this exciting project," said Bob Moesta, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Lombardo.

The website (http://www.ExtremeHomeDetroit.com) will allow visitors to make monetary donations, donate food and goods, volunteer their time to help with the construction of the home, and allow a worldwide audience to gain access to information about the show. An interactive blog has also been designed and donated to the project by AWS that will give volunteers the ability to share their thoughts and emotions with the rest of the world.

In addition to the design of the website and blog, Awecomm was able to further assist the family by facilitating the donation of seven college scholarships by the University of Phoenix. These scholarships will ensure that each member of the Gilliam family will have the opportunity to further their education at an exceptional university.

"To anyone who's ever seen the show, no explanation is necessary about how exciting it is to be involved," said Chris Spiek, Vice President of Awecomm, "I never would have imagined that our team would be presented with the opportunity to use our web marketing expertise for such a great cause."
