(Darien, CT--January 7, 2000)-- Search Engine Strategies 2000: Techniques for Tapping Portal Traffic, a day long seminar for Web marketers which focuses on the latest strategies for generating traffic from search engines, will be held on March 9, 2000 at the New York Hilton & Towers in Manhattan. internet.com Corporation (Nasdaq: INTM), the E-Business and Internet Technology Network, is organizing the day long event.

Danny Sullivan, widely recognized as the world's leading expert on search engines and the Webmaster of internet.com's SearchEngineWatch.com (http://www.searchenginewatch.com), will moderate Search Engine Strategies 2000. Search Engine Strategies 2000 features presentations and panel discussions that cover all aspects of search engine related promotion. Workshops will address search engine marketing basics, designing search engine friendly sites, improving search engine rankings, buying banners and links, using meta tags and submission to directories. The day will end with a special "Meet The Search Engines" panel where attendees can ask specific search engine questions from leading industry executives.

"Search engines are one of the most important ways users find Web sites, but they remain a mystery to many site owners. This seminar will help unlock those mysteries," said Sullivan. "Following the enormous success of this seminar in San Francisco in November 1999, we believe this will be a big hit in New York as well."
