In addition to these agreements, MIVA also last month announced the signing of a search and content deal with the U.K.'s second largest local newspaper publisher, Johnston Press Plc(a). The agreement sees MIVA display targeted Pay-Per-Click Ads across a network of over 300 national, regional and classified websites.

"We believe we're building a good level of momentum following the signing of these new partner agreements," said Peter Corrao MIVA's Chief Executive Officer.
