Provo Labs Re”Vital”izes WorldVitalRecords.com: Aiming to be the number two player in the genealogy industry

June 10, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
—- Provo Labs announced today its plans to become the number two player in the genealogy industry.

“Of course I recognize that this is no small task, but building this Web site is something that I feel compelled to do. Our goal is to develop a subscription service that is affordable and fits the needs, that are currently not being met, of our genealogists,” said Paul Allen, CEO Provo Labs.

Provo Labs will revitalize an existing site, WorldVitalRecords.com, and build it to be a vast library of genealogical resources, including international genealogy databases, references to top genealogical resources, a blog planet, podcasts, videocasts, Webinars, expert advice, training, and user-generated content.

“People shouldn’t have to spend their life savings to find their ancestors. We’re making it easy and affordable for our users to access our content,” said Whitney Ransom, Corporate Communications Director.

Along with all of these resources, WorldVitalRecords.com will be utilizing Provo Labs’ dynamic proprietary search engine, PlugNSearch TM. “We’re confident that PlugNSearchTM will add unique value to WorldVitalRecord’s genealogical content, offering users specific and relevant results at unparalleled speed,” said Phil Burns, COO, Provo Labs.

Individuals who are interested in becoming part of this genealogical community can visit WorldVitalRecords.com. We have a full team of genealogy content acquisitionists. Content providers should send an email to content@worldvitalrecords.com. Companies interested in becoming an affiliate should contact affiliates@worldvitalrecords.com.
