BOSTON, MA

The Tributes Network is the only assemblage of broadband media in the country focused solely on the distribution of obituary news. Tributes credits its rapid penetration to its turnkey solution which allows television as well as radio stations and city portals to quickly launch customized, monetizable, high quality obituary content on their websites with no up-front costs. The Tributes sales team then works on behalf of each partner to develop and manage funeral home channel relationships in their local market.

?Tributes is able to provide funeral homes and their families a one-of-a-kind online distribution offering to communicate to extended family and friends about the death of a loved one,? said Elaine Haney, President of Tributes, Inc. ?The Tributes.com national footprint coupled with the regional reach of its network of media partners provides a much needed alternative to traditional print obituaries which are both limiting and costly.?

Tributes recently signed an agreement with Ancestry.com to assist in the development of the family history leader?s Obituary Collection, providing consumers engaged in family history research with access to Tributes? growing database of obituary records.

Jeff Taylor, the Company founder and founder of Monster.com, will be hosting a Webinar on September 28th, 2010 entitled ? Social Media and the Funeral Business. Funeral Service professionals can register for this free event at https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/678288003.
