  CLEVELAND, OH, Mar 16 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Fast growing Cleveland Internet company, iGuiders, Inc., today announced
that it has closed on $700,000 in new investment capital. Funding was
provided by several existing investors, including JumpStart Ventures, as
well as several new angel investors. The company will use the funding to
further develop its proprietary decision software called Guiders(R),
which ultimately enables companies to direct Internet users to quickly
find what they're searching for and make faster purchasing decisions. In
addition, iGuiders will use the funding to expand its marketing and
customer support initiatives for retailers, online publishers,
manufacturers, resellers and content providers.

    iGuiders' patent-pending online decision technology helps people identify
what they want, quickly moves them through the decision funnel and
expedites the purchase process. Guiders enhance searching by picking up
where site filters fall short: they take generalized results and make
them personalized and specific. Guiders engage visitors longer and extend
the reach of pay-per-click campaigns by integrating relevant purchase
opportunities within content. Guiders can reside on any website and can
generate highly qualified leads for companies in real-time.

    "Our goal is to set the industry standard for guided decision-making
online and to provide companies with a universally adaptable software
platform they can use to vastly improve the search and decision process
for their online visitors," said Jodi Marchewitz, founder and CEO of
iGuiders. "This infusion of capital will help accelerate the
commercialization of our decision technology so we can continue to
deliver our solution across a wide range of industries. We're very
pleased our investors recognize iGuiders' growth potential and the
strength and the expertise of our team."

    About iGuiders, Inc.
