Does Your Website KickApps?

KickApps Corporation announced the release of its hosted community solution for websites interested in deploying user-generated video and social networking functionality directly on their Web pages. The KickApps platform addresses the needs of webmasters looking to provide their visitors with all the functionality typically found at leading Web 2.0 portals like MySpace, YouTube, Flickr and Facebook. However KickApps also provides webmasters with a set of sophisticated media management, reporting and administrative tools designed to protect websites from pornography, copyrighted material and user content that may hurt their brands or offend advertisers.

"By powering brands with community-building functionality at many diverse websites we are helping those brands aggregate audiences within specific contexts," said KickApps founder and CEO Eric Alterman. "We believe context is the next major driver for Web 2.0 traffic and for advertisers looking for a safe, effective way to promote their brands to identifiable communities with known demographics."
