ConsumerBase Launches DegreeLinks

Evanston, IL (PRWEB) March 12, 2006

ConsumerBase announced the launch of DegreeLinks.com today. DegreeLinks is a website that enables users to find schools via zip code searches. Upon entering a zip code, users are provided a selection of schools that can be individually clicked in order to access information request forms.

Education portals like DegreeLinks have become an important marketing tool for reaching prospective students. Generally, for-profit educators pay the portals on a cost-per-lead basis. ConsumerBase has experience in offering similar performance-based marketing tools and will market the portal through its network of affiliates.

Larry Organ, CEO of ConsumerBase, stated, “DegreeLinks complements our growing stable of proprietary websites. We are particularly proud of its user-friendly attributes. Its intuitive design allows those who seek information on schools to find it quickly and easily.”

The site takes information directly from applicants and relays it to participating schools in real-time. Prospective students are allowed to specify which degree programs interest them and schools are able to follow up with additional information or applications for admission.

Initially, DegreeLinks will include schools under the umbrella of Career Education Corporation of Hoffman Estates, IL.
