ArcaMax Launches News Editions

"News is simply not news unless it is accessible. Our publications are free and easy to get," said Scott Wolf, CEO of ArcaMax Publishing. "Having daily e-mail updates allow our readers to stay current with the major events."

By e-mail, ArcaMax provides regular news updates twice daily. On the ArcaMax news site, breaking news stories are posted several times per hour. All combined, hundreds of news headlines are provided per day — made possible through an arrangement with trusted news source United Press International (UPI).

The news publications join more than 40 other free — and family-friendly — publications from ArcaMax, including entertainment news and popular comics such as "Garfield" and "Baby Blues." The company also recently launched an online book club with more than 500 classic books available for free. More than a million people are subscribed to ArcaMax newsletters (or commonly referred to as "ezines").

The news publications take ArcaMax from being not only a feature news provider, but a source of current events. Studies have shown that more and more people are turning to online news instead of traditional methods of receiving news.

"This service is especially useful to people who simply enjoy reading the news on their own schedules," Wolf added.

All three ezines are delivered twice a day on weekdays (in the morning and afternoon). Business and Current News editions are sent once per day on the weekends while Sports Update maintains the twice per day schedule on the weekends. Sports subscribers receive scores, news, and schedules for the big games and matches (MLB, NFL, NHL, golf and tennis are included).

Subscribers who choose to receive the Business News ezine have access to news on stocks and company acquisitions and other major events.

Current headlines include a variety of political, domestic and international headlines.

The Sports, Business, and Current Headlines ezines can be subscribed to free on the ArcaMax Web site at http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/reg . Other ezines include Entertainment, Bible Verses, Recipes, and Health & Fitness. All news headlines may also be accessed for free at the ArcaMax News page (http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/news/channel/1048).
