GoHoster Goes Word-of-Mouth Marketing with SocialTwist

Internet Startup GoHoster, the free webpage creation tool, today announced its partnership with widget developer SocialTwist. The partnership will allow GoHoster pages to be powered by SocialTwist's Tell-a-Friend widget.

"Offering this level of functionality to the GoHoster community through the simplicity of a web widget is a testament to the work that has gone into its development" said Brian Fowler founder of GoHoster. "We look forward to a long lasting relationship with SocialTwist" continued Mr. Fowler.

The Tell-a-Friend widget lets GoHoster page visitors reach their friends on Email, IM or Social Networks without leaving the GoHoster page.

The Tell-a-Friend Widget is accessed through the GoHoster Page Creator, once you’ve chosen to edit an existing page or create a new page. The Tell-a-Friend Widget appears by default on all published pages.

"We are excited to provide the GoHoster community with the ability for word-of-mouth marketing" said Vijay Pullur, Co-founder of SocialTwist.

The partnership marks the first on a road-map the company has planed for creating a highly desirable social publishing network.
