April 19, 2004 (Seattle, WA) - All Star Directories, the fastest growing publisher of school directories on the Internet, announced today that it achieved a record number of prospective student visits in the first calendar quarter of 2004. The 2.4 million student visits surpassed both the 2.3 million visitors reported by Gradschools.com for Q1, as well as the estimated 350,000 visitors to the Petersons GradChannel.

"Traffic is now running at twice the pace of our record setting year in 2003. But we're not ready to quit there," said Mike Mathieu, President/CEO and founder of All Star Directories. "We are stepping up our efforts to deliver Featured Schools the increased awareness they deserve at a price that traditional media can't match."

Each Featured School gets a fact sheet with 750 words, a logo, and two color photos, plus an inquiry form tailored to a school's recruiting requirements. We stand behind our service with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, trial periods as short as 60 days, and a reporting system with clear, measurable results so you'll really know what you're paying for. What's more, our unique Double-filter technology, AutoResponder emails, and Event Calendars ensures that more of your student inquiries turn into enrolled students.
