Monday, May 21, 2001 Bloomfield, CT -- May 21, 2001 -- Prophesy Transportation Solutions, the creator of mile.com, the most popular transportation website on the Internet, is now providing a new full-featured web hosting and design service for companies within the trucking industry. The intent of the service is to allow more trucking companies to establish their own stand-alone websites and gain instant online traffic.
"For trucking companies, Prophesy webZone is the perfect marriage of trucking-focused technology and the Internet," says Prophesy President Edward J. Forman. "Our clients are trucking companies, we understand the type of technology they need and we know how to provide it at a reasonable cost."
For a single fee of $595, Prophesy offers a complete web design and hosting package. The Prophesy webZone team will assist in the selection of a unique web address and will register that web address for each customer, (ex: www.sampletrucking.com). Once selected and registered, Prophesy will design the site and include all company information and services, as well as the company logo and photos of trucks, staff, mascot, etc. Also included in the webZone site package are company email addresses.
For example, users can now have an email address such as dan@sampletrucking.com, which will forward messages to the user's existing email address. This eliminates the need for addresses such as dan9412@whazoo.com, which are difficult to remember and less professional.
Of particular interest to trucking companies is the inclusion of an online driver application. Each Prophesy webZone site will contain a page where driver applicants may submit an online employment application right on the webZone customer's site. The completed application will be emailed to the webZone customer with a click of the applicant's mouse.
Prophesy webZone also assures their customers reliable web hosting. Once a webZone site is launched, Prophesy ensures that it is up and running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
A primary benefit of launching a site with Prophesy webZone, is the instant traffic afforded through a link from the popular transportation website, mile.com. Mile.com routinely receives 50,000-100,000 hits each day, and visitors to mile.com will be able to search through and visit the Prophesy webZone sites with a click of their mouse. The service also offers instant Internet presence, as each webZone site will be launched and running within a few days of the customer's order.
Perhaps the largest benefits of this trucking-based web hosting service are the many future enhancements geared around the Trucking Industry. Prophesy's roots are in trucking, and Prophesy's webZone service will bring its customers trucking-specific services that other web hosting services simply cannot. These services include future offerings such as auto load posting, driver recruiting, and automatic rating capabilities for Prophesy webZone sites.
