TELLUS WINS FIVE WEBAWARDS IN NATIONAL COMPETITION

September 15, 2004. For immediate release.

Tellus, a Web development company with offices in Cincinnati and Ypsilanti, Michigan, has earned five 2004 WebAwards. Tellus was recognized for Web sites developed for:

University of Michigan Autism & Communication Disorders Center in Ann Arbor (http://www.umaccweb.com/).
M. Hopple & Co., a Cincinnati stationery and gift retailer (www.mhopple.com).
West Clermont School District in suburban Cincinnati (www.westcler.org).
Visibility Unlimited, Inc., a scuba and snorkeling retailer in the Chicago area (www.visibilityunlimited.com).
Innerwood, a custom cabinetry company in Loveland, Ohio (www.innerwood.com).

The Web Marketing Association has conducted the WebAwards since 1997 to recognize excellence in Web design and development. This year was the most competitive with over 1300 sites reviewed by judges worldwide.

Online stores Tellus created for M. Hopple and Visibility Unlimited were honored as Outstanding Web Sites. Sites developed for the University of Michigan, West Clermont Schools, and Innerwood received Standard of Excellence awards.

"As a relatively new company, it's gratifying to receive this national recognition," said CEO Betsy Emery, who founded Tellus two-and-a-half years ago. "We're thankful to our clients for putting their faith in us."

Cathy Aggelopoulos, president of Visibility Unlimited, said the web site Tellus created for her company combines easy-to-navigate architecture, strong corporate branding, creative design emphasizing the spirit of adventure Visibility Unlimited exemplifies, and administrative tools which allow its in-house staff to manage orders and update online information. "Tellus is creative, knowledgeable and friendly, and they kept me involved during the entire process," Aggelopoulos said. "The results are incredible. I love the look of my store, and I receive numerous compliments for it daily."
