AllNursingSchools.com Wins "Best of the Net" Award from Top Ranking Site

January 18, 2002 (Seattle, WA) - All Star Directories, Inc. today announced that its AllNursingSchools.com web site has been awarded a "Best of the Net" designation by About.com's Nursing Guide, Laura J. Robusto, RN. About.com is the #7 ranked site on the Internet. All Nursing Schools is an online guide to nursing education and careers which serves as a flexible, cost-effective recruiting tool for nursing schools.

"We are pleased to accept this award from About.com, said Mike Mathieu, founder and President of All Star Directories. "They have recognized the unique role we play in providing prospective nursing students - from entry-level to graduate-level - with the critical information they need to make decisions about nursing schools."

In addition AllNursingSchools.com will be the "Cool Nursing Site of the Day" on January 26, 2002 on About.com.

All Nursing Schools now serves more than 2,000 unique prospective nursing students per day, and provides them with a comprehensive directory of U.S. nursing schools, detailed nursing Q&A, and the ability to request application information directly from nursing school recruiters. In return, Featured Schools get an online recruiting tool that's tailored to their particular recruiting strategies for increasing the size and quality of their applicant pool.

"Day in and day out, our site is the most cost-effective way for nursing schools to recruit more of the best students. We've taken the world-class techniques we used to build msn.com into the #3 site on the Internet, and have applied them to the education market with great results for our Featured Schools," says Mathieu.

The 60 Day Trial program allows schools to tap into this source of student requests and to try the service before making a full year commitment. It's quick and easy to get going. We set up your school's fact sheet for you without involving your IT department or webmaster, and can start sending inquiries within 48 hours.

Our measurable results have proven to be so cost-effective compared to other recruiting techniques that so far, 100% of the trial program participants have converted to full year subscriptions.
