Juno Online Services Inc. launched Shop@Juno, an Internet
shopping channel for consumers who visit Juno’s portal site on the Web.
The shopping site draws on a network of 47 marketing alliances between Juno
and various e-commerce Web sites including 1-800-FLOWERS, Art.com, Bluefly,
Crutchfield and Garden.com.
Shop@Juno categories range from apparel and automobiles to toys and hobbies.
Shop@Juno will be actively marketed to the millions of people who use Juno’s
services each month, as well as featured as a prominent link on Juno’s home
page.
Juno said it adds revenue with up-front payments from individual merchants,
revenue-sharing, and per-click fees earned when consumers link from the Juno
site to an allied site.
Juno is a provider of Internet-related services to millions of computer users
throughout the United States. The company offers several levels of service,
ranging from free, ad-backed basic dial-up Internet e-mail to full access to
the Web.
Since the launch of Juno’s basic e-mail service in April 1996, 7.6
