TheFreeDictionary.com Welcomes One Billionth Visitor

HUNTINGDON VALLEY, Pa.--(Business Wire)--
Farlex, Inc., publisher of the world's most comprehensive online
database of reference information (www.TheFreeDictionary.com),
announced today that its flagship site has broken a new record,
welcoming its one billionth visitor since the website's launch in the
spring of 2003.

TheFreeDictionary.com debuted as a simple, free online dictionary
catering to U.S. customers and has since evolved into one of the most
authoritative reference sites on the web, serving a global network of
users. Today, the site offers access to English, French, Spanish,
German, and Italian dictionaries; computing, medical, legal, and
financial dictionaries; a thesaurus; several encyclopedias; and much
more.

In 2006, Farlex launched TheFreeDictionary's fully customizable
personal homepage. The expanded functionality came as a direct
response to user feedback and has become enormously popular. Most
recently, Farlex announced the largest single addition of reference
material to TheFreeDictionary, including, for the first time, foreign
language resources. Among the 13 titles newly published on the site
are four non-English dictionaries: Collins French Dictionary &
Grammar, Collins Spanish Dictionary & Grammar, Collins German
Dictionary & Grammar, and Collins Italian Dictionary & Italian in
Action. By expanding the scope of its resources to include titles
outside of the English language, TheFreeDictionary.com addressed the
multilingual needs of its ever-expanding user base.

Steve Boymel, co-founder and executive vice president of Farlex,
Inc. believes the TheFreeDictionary's continued popularity can be
traced to the company's ongoing commitment to improving the site and
to making it the best reference resource on the web. "We are truly and
deeply devoted to providing the best service possible to our users,
and the fact that we have served a billion visitors in just five years
shows us that we continue to grow in the right direction. We are proud
to provide the global web-surfing community with such an invaluable
reference tool."

Nick Simonov, co-founder and president of Farlex, Inc., echoes
Boymel's sentiment, saying, "One billion visitors is a testament to
the breadth and quality of the information available on
TheFreeDictionary.com. We look forward to the coming years with
excitement, knowing that the next billion visitors will enjoy using
our site as thoroughly as the first billion."
