With thousands of exclusive articles about pet birds, BirdChannel.com is the most comprehensive Internet website covering all aspects of selecting, taking care of and living with a pet bird. Users can search the site by species for more information on their bird, or they can ask one of the site's online avian experts for additional advice. BirdChannel.com also offers breaking news on issues affecting bird owners, such as bird flu, avian cancer, local pet ordinances and the latest conservation research.
"We have worked hard to create a community that empowers visitors to show others how much they love their bird while educating them with practical information about birds that they can use right away," said Melissa Kauffman, editor of BIRD TALK and BirdChannel.com. "Visitors will love our interactive 'Medical Conditions' section where they can identify the symptoms of common avian illnesses."
Users are encouraged to join the site's online socializing group, Bird eClub, where they can build a web page for their bird, post photos, download free bird ringtones, chat with other members on the BirdChannel.com Message Board or comment on a funny bird video clip. Visitors earn points just for having fun and can redeem points for great prizes or valuable discounts from BirdChannel.com partners.
"BirdChannel.com is a model website for special-interest publishers," said Michelle Williams, Director of Internet Marketing. "We have combined the expert bird information that readers have come to expect from our leading publications like BIRD TALK and BIRDS USA, with the user-generated content that has made social-networking sites like MySpace, Friendster, Facebook and TagWorld so popular.
BirdChannel.com's Grand Opening Celebration runs from November 15 to 20, 2006, where more than $6,000 in prizes will be given away.
