LONDON and BRISTOL, England, July 15 /PRNewswire/ --

Mr Site and the Business Startup Community (BSC) today announce a new alliance. This new partnership will enable Mr Site's customers to receive unrivalled free access to expert advice, business support and extensive online resources via newsletters, the BSC Portal, forums, networking events, etc. It will also enable members of the Business Startup Community to purchase Mr Site's award-winning takeaway web site at a substantial discount.

When asked, Katie Moore, Founder & Managing Director of the Business Startup Community, said of the alliance: "Startup Community is all about helping people to start a business of their own, but our commitment doesn't stop there: we are always working hard towards building relationships with organisations such as Mr Site, who offer really good support for young and growing businesses. We are delighted that Mr Site will support the members of our business community by helping them build excellent websites and make the most of their internet marketing opportunities."

Bea Hatherley, Co-founder and Director, Mr Site Ltd. says: "We are thrilled to be working with Katie Moore and the entire Business Startup Community. Over two thirds of our customers are small businesses so we are continuously looking for new ways to assist them, especially now when they may be concerned about the credit crunch affecting their businesses. As a direct result of partnering with the Business Startup Community, our customers will have ready access to a wealth or business resources they might not otherwise know about."

The Business Startup Community is part of the Prism Group, organisers of the highly successful Business Startup Exhibition. The BSC has been live for 20 months and continuously develops new ideas and valuable information for its members. Membership is free.

Mr Site (the company) was launched in 2004 by Bea Hatherley and Stuart Spice. Since then they have acquired 60,000 new customers. Both Mr Site products, the Takeaway Website Standard and the Takeaway Website Pro give users all they need to get a professionally designed dot com website online eg. http://www.yourname.com, including a secure shopping cart, hosting, email and a smart website that would normally cost hundreds, if not thousands, of pounds. Created by leading UK Web Designers, users can simply select a professional website design, easily customise and make it unique. They can then drop in images, text, logos, music/videos & they're done. The Takeaway Website Pro package even has Search Engine Optimisation tools to help websites get to the top of search engine listings, and a business stationery creation tool.
