Glam Media Ranked as Number One Women\'s Web Property by comScore

NEW YORK, June 18, 2007 - Glam Media today announced its new ranking as number one
on the comScore Media Metrix Top 10 Women\'s Community Web Properties list and the

and passionate female audience online. Glam works closely with content providers,
publishers, and brand advertisers such as H&M, Oxygen Media, Procter & Gamble,
Reebok, and Warner Bros. to create the ultimate digital experience for women.

\"Glam Media\'s rapid ascent to number one is representative of the massive market
shift driving the web today-the distributed media platform,\" said Samir Arora,
chairman and CEO of Glam Media. \"The passion and power of the independent voices of
Glam editorial and our indie publishers is what women want online-with authentic
content and engaging brand advertising contextually placed to create a deeply
entertaining and relevant experience for women.\"
