www.blackenterprise.com, the interactive arm of BLACK ENTERPRISE magazine announced today that it has partnered with I-services firm, Feast New Media in the re-launch of its site. New York-based www.blackenterprise.com unveiled its new face with the assistance of I-services firm, Feast New Media. With a new user interface and a breadth of new content and features, www.blackenterprise.com is positioned to be the premier online destination for business-minded African Americans.

Feast New Media worked closely with BLACK ENTERPRISE magazine's interactive group to recreate the site. The results of this collaboration included the conception of an aesthetically pleasing and easy to use interface and the deployment of some exciting interactive technology.

"We have learned from our most recent experiences that it takes more than a good aesthetic map and great content to satisfy the needs of our online users," states Derrick Godfrey, Director of Interactive Media at BLACK ENTERPRISE Magazine. "For our site to succeed we needed to bring in accomplished technologists with strong problem solving, implementation and integration skills. Feast New Media proved to be the perfect fit for us."

Originally launched in 1996, the goal of the site is to provide business tools and content to its visitors, as well as enhance business development and networking opportunities for individuals and corporations seeking to access information pertaining to, or seeking to do business with African Americans. Featuring over 150 industry-specific content categories, personalized homepages and an exclusive Black Stock Index, the site provides original and archival editorial content from BLACK ENTERPRISE magazine, personal finance and investment information and features a career center offering real time job searches, a personal job search agent and BLACK ENTERPRISE's exclusive Executive Recruiter Directory. In partnership with FranchiseSolutions, the Franchise Center offers thousands of franchise and business opportunities; and in collaboration with Net Stock Direct, www.blackenterprise.com offers opportunities to build wealth through online stock purchase without high fees.

"The re-launch of www.blackenterprise.com is a testament to our effectiveness in recreating a simple Internet presence to a best of breed category leader," says Nechelle Feaster, President of Feast New Media. "We're able to accomplish this through anticipating our client's needs and producing solutions that are cutting edge while still representing best practices."
