Launched in late 2007, FrontDoor has rapidly risen to become a leader in real estate Web services thanks to the demonstrated leadership and expertise of HGTV -- seen in more than 95 million U.S. households and the No. 1 media resource for home and garden content -- combined with a rich, video- and image-centric experience offering the best and latest in listings and real estate related information.

"Now more than ever, it is important for people to have a trusted source like FrontDoor to help navigate the challenges of buying and selling a property.

"FrontDoor tackles challenging topics like how to price your home, how to stage your home for a quick sell, and how to take advantage of first time home buying tax breaks. With this partnership our complete real estate experience - offering both listings and content - will be available to an even wider audience."

Internet Broadcasting helps television stations expand their local presence online, increasing traffic and ad revenue with a wide array of products and services built to drive a quality local online experience for both consumers and advertisers.

Added Scripps' Neil, "We are excited about this new partnership with Internet Broadcasting which will broaden the FrontDoor footprint by millions and allow users to find FrontDoor listings and expert relevant content from their local media Web sites.
