New York, New York - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - January 11, 2008 - Search and media company, Yahoo! services, are included in the American Express OPEN program, to assist small businesses, with automatic discounts of 5% on Yahoo! Search Marketing and Yahoo! Small Business services.

OPEN Savings are designed to give small business owners automatic savings virtually every time they use an American Express® Small Business Card to make purchases at any OPEN Savings partner.

Raymond Joabar, Senior Vice President and General Manager of OPEN from American Express, noted, ”Online marketing has proven to be effective for small businesses, and 55% of entrepreneurs use a company Web site as a marketing tool. The addition of Yahoo! Search Marketing and Yahoo! Small Business to our OPEN Savings program provides business owners with an outstanding value on marketing tools that are vital to the success of their business.”

Through this partnership, business owners can use their Small Business Card to automatically reduce their costs of doing business with Yahoo! Search Marketing and Yahoo! Small Business services. Small business Cardmembers will receive a 5% discount on Yahoo! Search Marketing’s online advertising and promotion services in addition to Yahoo! Small Business’s comprehensive, easy to use services, including web site hosting, e-commerce, business e-mail, and domain name registration.

OPEN Savings has delivered more than $200 million in savings to American Express Small Business Cardmembers since 2004. OPEN Savings eliminates the need for offer codes, coupons or program enrollment and provides automatic savings from well-known brands. Savings can also be combined with other marketplace offers or volume discount pricing that businesses may already be receiving from program partners.

Todd Daum, Vice President of Marketing for Yahoo!’s Online Channel Division remarked, ”Yahoo! is pleased to work with OPEN from American Express to offer savings on our award-winning web site hosting, e-commerce and search marketing solutions, which enable small businesses to quickly get online, sell online, and market online.
