David Fortino Appointed to Vice President of Audience Development at NetLine Corporation

LOS GATOS, CA (July 25, 2005) – NetLine Corporation, the premier lead generation and online marketing services provider for advertisers, marketers, and publishers, today announced that David Fortino has been appointed to the new position of Vice President, Audience Development, effective immediately. In his new role, Fortino will lead all efforts to acquire and drive targeted audiences through additional vertical content websites.

"David has virtually developed our vast online partner network from scratch," said NetLine CEO Bob Alvin. "He has done an excellent job of helping our publishers who use NetLine's Sub Source service and marketers using Lead Source service expand their own subscriber and lead databases while helping our online partners increase traffic and customer loyalty. In his new position, David and his team will continue to expand the partner network with an eye toward expanding vertical audiences for our B2B marketing clients."

Fortino built NetLine's partner network and enhanced the value of NetLine's services and TradePub.com. The distribution network was designed to make trade magazine subscriptions and knowledge content, such as white papers and webinar offers available for free to visitors at content-relevant sites, adding significant benefit for NetLine's Lead Source and Sub Source customers as the reach to their target audiences grows, resulting in quality results and measurable ROI.

Since Fortino joined NetLine almost three years ago, he has effectively grown the partner network to include more than 2,350 active and targeted vertical sites. With a reach of over 25 million, NetLine customers' content and publications are matched with relevant vertical audiences consistently and with high frequency. Fortino plans to double the number of affiliate partners by the end of 2005.

Fortino commented, "The combination of NetLine's partner program and services, and Tradepub.com create a unique offering as it adds a revenue stream for our online partners and is a contextual content source for our partners' customers; it's not just another real estate advertising play on their sites. Through our partners, our reach to over 25 million each month has achieved incredible results. I believe we are just scratching the surface in assembling a top-notch 'business-specific' lead generation network."

Prior to joining NetLine, Fortino served as director of strategic alliances and audience development for VerticalNet.com and VertMarkets.com. While there, Fortino drove the strategy behind aggressive audience growth of VerticalNet/VertMarkets' nearly 70 BtoB online properties. Fortino spearheaded and implemented a plan resulting in VerticalNet's audience development strategy, moving from a traditional pull model to a distribution and syndication model, and ultimately shifting cost dependencies away from internal resources.

Fortino holds a B.A. in media studies with a focus on corporate communications from Pennsylvania State University.
