provides an online
advertising sale and
display service for publishers of Blogs (the "Service").
We sell "Advertiser(s)" the right to place
advertisements ("Blogad(s)") via the Service into a

displayed on one or more web sites of our network of Blog publishers

developed and hosted by Pressflex LLC, its subsidiaries and third
party contractors. Blogads are viewed by members of the public

Publishers’
Blogs via the World Wide Web.
