Albaat Website Tops 57,000 Hits

Austin, Texas — Albaat Ink Jet Fills announces that its' business-to-business website, www.EMPTIES.com, has eclipsed 57,000 hits for the month of June.

The EMPTIES.com website is dedicated to direct business-to-business global e-commerce for empty ink jet and toner cartridges, which are the raw material commodity that drive the remanufacturing industry.

Global registered sellers post regularly in a protected easy-to-use format. Buyers from around the world browse available empties free of charge and bid on lots posted by sellers. The bids go directly to the seller, who deals directly with the buyer. With more than 50,000 hits monthly EMPTIES.com is now offering banner advertising and "sponsor" ad pages. The in-house web design team will create custom banner or sponsor buttons for advertisers.

"We have increased our bandwidth for the site and will in no way slow down EMPTIES.com by accommodating requests to allow advertising. We are ready to continue to move forward," Systems Administrator Brian Kelly said.

The goal of this EMPTIES.com is to speed and simplify the process of buying and selling empty cores. The mission is to bring together buyers and sellers to increase margins for everyone involved.
