Road Town, Tortola - Dec. 7, 2009 -Today leading Web-development firm, MediaTier Ltd., announced the launch of its newest online venture: AceHoyle.com. Part casino portal, part Noir Comic series, the groundbreaking Web site offers visitors engaging content and an array of multimedia and Web 2.0 features.
Central to AceHoyle.com is "The Adventures of Ace Hoyle," a comic strip created by MediaTier writer Phill Provance and artist Tomas Batha. The series chronicles the bizarre exploits of professional poker player Ace Hoyle and his main squeeze, Dolly Finegold. Characters and graphics are fashioned in the classic Noir Comic Book style, and new episodes are added weekly.
AceHoyle.com also provides readers the latest gambling news, interviews with poker celebrities, original music and videos, flash games, strategy guides, and an interactive community in which poker and gambling fans can exchange stories and insights.
Content, however, is not the site's only unique aspect. Its forward-thinking design combines the affiliate advertising and Search Engine Optimization aspects of traditional online gambling portals with the branding and community-building capabilities of today's most competitive sites. The result is a Web presence unique in its breadth and scope and one that its creators expect to out-perform conventional online advertising mediums.
Says Phill Provance, AceHoyle.com Executive Editor, "The goal is to do for gambling and poker fans what Facebook did for college students. Our fresh take on Web-comic revenue structures and gambling-portal content promises to break new ground in every sector we touch."
Future plans for the site include guest blogs and user-generated content, odds-calculator widgets, an online store, personalized player-ranking pages, customizable tournament calendars and bookmarking tools, and a Facebook application that aims to rival the social media site's most popular programs.
AceHoyle.com launched in its Beta format Nov. 23, 2009. Visitors are encouraged to contribute to the site's development by notifying the Webmaster via the site's Contact Us page.
