Worldwide Globat.com(R) Tattoo Vote Is Getting Too Close to Call


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 28, 2006 -- Los Angeles-based Globat.com(R), the world leader in Performance Web Hosting(R), today announced that their online vote to determine the permanent location of a tattoo for Ramona Dilmore will end in a few days. The vote, which started August 9th, allows visitors of sister site DefyingGravity.com to choose among four possible locations for the tattoo: the forehead, cheek, neck, or chest. Since voting began, thousands of people have visited DefyingGravity.com to cast their vote and take part in this one-of-a-kind event.

Ramona, a resident of Fort Richardson, Alaska, has been watching the vote closely and states, "My kids and husband are almost as excited as I am!" With only a few days left to vote, it has indeed been a very exciting process, with the neck taking the lead early on. However, in the past few days, the forehead and chest have been in a virtual tie for first place, with the votes going back and forth between the two.

"It's been quite thrilling to see how close the voting is! With the votes going back and forth almost hourly, it's impossible to predict how this will end. We've gotten votes from all around the world and we're looking forward to seeing what the final results will be," said Ben R. Neumann, President and CEO of Globat.com.

Visitors will be able to vote until September 1st, at which point the results will be tallied and the winning location will be determined. The actual tattooing will take place on September 12th in Los Angeles, CA. Ramona will be using the proceeds from the event to fund a vacation for her family to Italy.

Attracting media attention worldwide, Globat.com has recently launched a wave of very unique sponsorships and events such as a sponsored birth, and a tattooed human billboard under the banner of "Defying Gravity," with the ultimate goal to launch at least one such special event in each of the 50 states. More information about this story can be found at the Defying Gravity Web site (http://www.DefyingGravity.com) or by e-mailing prdept@globat.com. Information about Globat.com and the company's services and Web hosting packages starting at only $6.95 is available at their Web site (http://www.globat.com) or by calling 877-2-GLOBAT.
