Press Release Summary: Uplinkearth Partners with Comodo to Provide SSL Certificates,
such as the Newly Released EV SSL Certificates

Press Release Body: JERSEY CITY, N.J., September 26, 2007 - Uplinkearth, an award
winning Web hosting and Internet solutions provider for small to medium sized
businesses and Comodo, a leading Certification Authority, announced today that the
two companies have partnered to deliver business-class SSL Certificates for its
small to medium sized business customers.

The certificates, which are available to all Uplinkearth customers at discounted
rates, allow Web visitors to verify the authenticity of the sites they visit. The
use of SSL Certificates helps prevent the occurrence of phishing, where users are
lured into unknowingly providing sensitive information to fraudulent parties.

\"In today\'s security environment on the Web, certificates have become absolutely
imperative to thwart the rise of fraudulent transactions,\" said Michael Yablonowitz,
Uplinkearth president and CEO. \"We hope our relationship with Comodo will ultimately
make it easier and more affordable for our customers to take advantage of the many
benefits of SSL certificates.\"

Uplinkearth customers may purchase Comodo\'s recently released Extended Validation
certificates (EV SSL) at special prices reflecting savings from the $849 retail
price. EV SSL certificates provide a $1,000,000 warranty for site owners and
introduce visual verification in the Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 address bar.

\"EV SSL certificates are an important development in ensuring a safe and secure
Internet for consumers,\" said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and Chief Security Architect
of Comodo. \"For the first time, site visitors get a visual indicator confirming that
the site has been authenticated and this level of reassurance will enable more
consumers to be more confident in their online transactions.\"

All SSL Certificates purchased through Uplinkearth include installation at no
additional charge. Certificates may be used with any Uplinkearth hosting plan.
