Sherpia.com Announces Expansion of Industry Guide Program for Website Recommendations
Social Search Site enhances ability for users to find websites related to a specific interest or activity.

WASHINGTON, DC, May 23, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sherpia Inc., today announced the addition of several Industry Guides that now share website recommendations on Sherpia.com, a social search site which allows its users to find relevant and recommended websites for their personal interests or activities based on reviews from others they trust. In addition to Industry Guides, an individual may limit search results to recommendations from those they trust including friends, co-workers, or others. The set of interest-based activities in Sherpia include online shopping, travel, music, and dozens of other categories.

Sherpia is pleased to welcome Common Sense Media, which is dedicated to improving the lives of kids and families, as well as Bestcovery, which is a trusted source that helps you quickly find the best of everything, as Premier Industry Guides. They join SheFinds, Very Best Sites, and Forbes.com as Premier Industry Guides. Additional industry guides added to the program include Good Car Day, which specializes in car sites, My Lifestyle Diet, which focuses on healthy living sites, and Photography Business Tips, which provides recommendations related to photography. "We are excited to continue the expansion of our Industry Guide Program, which allows our users to easily learn from organizations that are clear leaders in providing high-quality, in-depth recommendations on all the best websites across a variety of categories," said Kevin Whelan, Founder of Sherpia, Inc. "We see our users wanting the advice of not only friends & family but also industry experts whose mission it is to find the best sites and tools on the Internet."

Although users can easily browse the site and read reviews without signing up for the service, registration is required in order to build out a personal network of guides and to review websites. Users can register either directly through the site or through Facebook Connect and easily find results by selecting a specific interest. Results are organized based on either relevancy to the user or overall score from a user's network of guides, which may include Industry Guides. "We are pleased to offer another mechanism for our Industry Guides to reach an expanded audience that will be interested in the great content they have to offer," added Mr. Whelan.
