Based on the same, we are the category leaders for electronic greeting cards across most major search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN and Ask.com.

Competition

The market for online card is highly competitive. There are no substantial barriers to entry in this market, and we expect that competition in the existing market will continue to intensify. Negative competitive developments could have a material adverse affect on our business.

We compete with many other providers of electronic greeting cards. As the popularity of online communication continues to increase, we expect to compete directly with a greater number of websites and a wide range of media companies that provide online services similar to ours. We also compete in vertical markets where competitors may have advantages such as substantial financial resources, brand recognition and other factors. Our market is evolving rapidly and we compete with many Internet companies for content, consumer time, limited online advertisement expenditure and e-commerce revenues. We expect this competition to increase.

We compete, in particular, with companies or their affiliates that offer electronic greeting cards via the Internet, content aggregators that offer electronic greeting cards, and providers of traditional greeting cards and related services. We also compete with numerous types of web based businesses and web sites for a limited internet advertising expenditure. In addition, competitors may also be able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt aggressive pricing policies and devote substantially more resources to developing Internet content and services than us.
