SANTA BARBARA, Calif., June 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Warp 9, Inc. (OTC

services, today announces the re-signing of Craft Supplies USA's site
WoodturnersCatalog.com on the Warp 9 Internet Commerce System (ICS) platform

Craft Supplies experienced significant growth when they switched onto the Warp
9 ICS platform two years ago. "Propelled by a new design, new features and
great support, our website immediately saw a sharp revenue increase after
moving onto the Warp 9 platform and has continued to grow significantly. We
consistently have gotten advice and support from the Warp 9 team that has
allowed us to continue to push revenues higher by both refining our current
practices and by engaging the customer in new and better ways," said Don
Dafoe, Craft Supplies' IT Director. "Warp 9 has been a great partner and
therefore our decision to re-sign for a 3-year term has been an easy choice.
We are looking forward to implementing some of their recent suggestions; we
think they will produce great results."
Despite a tough retail climate, Craft Supplies has seen:
-- Consistent double digit growth in sales revenue
-- Consistent double digit growth in SEO driven sales revenue
-- Even higher (>50%) growth in SEO driven traffic
-- Greatly increased page exposure with search engines:
-- Google: 58%
-- Yahoo: 184%
-- MSN: 47%
"Craft Supplies has been a great customer and been very open to suggestions.
They have a great product line and understand delivering a great experience to
the customer. This philosophy certainly makes executing on elements which grow
revenue a much easier task: customer acquisition tactics, increases in
conversion, and increases in average order size. We look forward to working
with them to increase sales even further," commented Harinder Dhillon, Warp
9's CEO.
