March 11, 2010 – New York, USA

Simkl today released Promo Manager http://promo.simkl.com, a FREE service for promoting your Website, Startup or Online Shop on Twitter and Blogs in exchange for giving away Invitation codes and Promo codes (Coupon codes, Vouchers, etc…) to your users.

If you have something that people want (a Coupon code, Invitation code, some content hidden behind a secret URL, etc…), you can exchange it for a post on user’s Blog or Twitter account using Simkl Promo Manager. Simply add your promo codes to Simkl Promo Manager, enter what you want users to Tweet. Simkl will create a special page for your promo code or Invitation code which you can give to your users. Here’s a demo: http://activatepromo.com/57/.

Simkl will automatically post your message to user’s Twitter account or Blog, then it will check the post and will give the user his Promo code, Invitation code, URL, or whatever you choose.

Why distribute Invitation codes through Simkl?

• When you have a closed registration and people can register only with invitation code, you get a lot of requests asking for the invitation. Using Simkl Promo Manager you can give out Invitation codes automatically only to those people, who are really interested in your service, and who are ready to promote your service. Those are the people to whom you really want to give Invitation codes.
• Automatically detect and invite enthusiasts who are ready for small bugs on your new startup.

Dear Valued Client,

Please note that Simkl will be performing scheduled network maintenance this Friday night to replace the core2 router. Although the time frame for the maintenance is 2AM-8AM (Saturday, February 13) (GMT-5, Eastern Standard Time (EST)), we do not anticipate any lengthy downtime as a result. We expect the transition to go smoothly, however, should complications arise during the switch to the new router, some customers might experience downtime towards the start and end of the maintenance window. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we make our network improvements.

Thank you.

Just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas,
Happy Holidays
and a Happy New Year!

Now it makes no difference what client you use, whether desktop version, ICQ VKontakte or ICQ for mobile phone.
