Company Name and Description, Including Major Product Descriptions

MyST Technology Partners, Inc. is a privately held technology research and development company focused on creating new and useful Web 2.0 products and services. Our research and product development centers around the MyST Platform™, a highly agile XML web services platform that provides the foundation for a variety of products and services, including:

  • MyST Blogsite™ – For companies seeking increased Internet visibility within targeted market segments, a MyST Blogsite is a turnkey micro site that provides greater discoverability via high search engine rankings and ongoing brand impressions right on the customers desktop via RSS and other notification techniques. Unlike traditional web marketing approaches that require marketing managers to anticipate all phrases used to find their product or service, MyST Blogsite creates sustainable visibility for hundreds—even thousands—of relevant search phrases using a unique blending of weblogs, content syndication, and automated business intelligence. The result is a formidable web presence that can be managed effectively by non-technical users with minimal marketing department effort and no IT department involvement.

  • MyST Enterprise RSS Services™ – For large organizations seeking to RSS enable existing content sources with minimal risk, MyST Enterprise RSS Services delivers high-quality RSS, Atom, and other content syndication capabilities with minimal impact on existing content management processes or IT infrastructure.

MyST Blogsite services are offered directly and through our network of channel partners and value added resellers. MyST Enterprise RSS Services are available to larger organizations directly from us.

hey Bill. i know i can always count on you to be the first! would enjoy hearing what you think about this approach. i've set up about 60 of these sites now over the past 4 or so months -- track them in Google Reader and Analytics. I frequently recall comments you made to me about 4 years ago -- "Ah, so that's what Bill meant by...." Hope you're prospering with Myst.
