Sales of Shirts to Help Navy SEALS Defense Fund Reaches Milestone

San Diego, CA ( Pressreleasecollection ) April 29, 2010 – This past week, it was announced that the second of the three Navy SEALs who had been accused of prisoner abuse was acquitted of all charges. This was good news to the many who had joined together in support of the SEALs, including USNavySEALStore.com and SupportOurSeals.com, websites that was helping to raise money for their defense fund. <br /><br />Background: Navy SEALs captured Ahmed Hashim Abed, an Iraqi terrorist allegedly responsible for the murder of four American contractors in Iraq. According to the charges, in 2004 Abed masterminded a successful plot to ambush American security agents. The burned remains of the bodies were hung from a bridge in Fallujah to allow the world press to photograph and publicize. <br /><br />Following the capture, charges were brought against three of the SEALs by Abed, who claims he was punched in the stomach and received a bloody lip after being taken into custody. Three Navy SEALs—Matthew McCabe, Julio Antonio Huertas Jr. and Jonathan Elliott Keefe—were charged with failing to protect the detainee and making false statements to investigators. <br /><br />Another nonprofit organization, the Warrior Defense Fund (FreetheSeals.com), was formed to raise money for the men’s defense costs.<br /><br />To help in the fundraising efforts, two t-shirts were created by USNavySEALs.com and sold at USNavySEALstore.com. $10 from the sale of each shirt was donated to the Warrior Defense Fund. Through their efforts, $10,000 was collected and donated to the Fund in less than 5 weeks. A letter of thanks from the Chairman of the Warrior Defense Fund was posted on the <a href="http://www.usnavysealstore.com/support-seals.asp">USNavySEALstore.com</a>. <br /><br />Comments, discussion and support for the SEALs and the fundraising efforts have been strong: <br /><br />“I am one of their supporters, both as an American and financially for their legal defenses. I am a Navy SEAL mom, and will fight for all of them!” – M.H.<br /><br />“Thanks for all your support guys!!! Keep it up.” -G.W.<br /><br />“God bless the three of you and keep up the good fight.

NEW ONLINE STORE MAKES SHOPPING FOR NAVY SEALS PRODUCTS MUCH EASIER

San Diego, CA ( Pressreleasecollection ) December 23, 2009 – This year, the BBC News reported that consumers doing online shopping increased by 13%. This increase is a trend that market analysts have been observing since the Internet boom of the 1990s, and the volume of online shopping using big online catalogs is expected to continue to grow in 2010.<br /><br />A new online retailer, USNavySEALStore.com, is aiming to change the way online shopping with big product catalogs is done. USNavySEALStore.com carries thousands of products related to the US Navy SEALs, with product lines ranging from fitness wear, swim wear and casual wear; jewelry, Navy SEAL dive watches and accessories; books, games, music and DVDs; tactical gear; and even collectible Navy SEALs memorabilia.<br /><br />To make online shopping easier for their customers, USNavySEALStore.com makes use of a special search engine that runs on an intelligent keyword tag filtration system. It literally drills down into a customer's search query by bringing up product with keyword tags that are possibly related to the customer's original search keywords.<br /><br />For instance, if a customer clicks on the footgear category on the USNavySEALStore.com homepage, all the product categories with keyword tags related to footgear will come up. In this case, what will come up are keyword tags "military boots" and "tactical boots." The customer can drill down even further until he gets the exact product he is looking for.<br /><br />This keyword tag filtration system that the USNavySEALStore.com search engine uses is very easy to use. It only takes a click of the mouse to get it working to refine a customer's search query.<br /><br />The website also has an advanced search box for customers to use if they already know the product they wish to buy and do not have the time to browse extensively for other Navy SEALs products in the website. Just like any search box application, the customer only needs to enter the necessary keywords in the search box and then wait for the results to load.<br /><br />In addition, the website aims to continue improving its services through customer feedback. USNavySEALStore.com also launched a <a href="http://twitter.com/usnavysealstore">Navy SEAL Twitter account</a> and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/US-Navy-SEALs/91321459063">a Navy SEAL Facebook fan page</a> where customers can leave comments and opinions as well as stay updated with upcoming events and contests.<br /><br />The growth of online shopping is largely due to the convenience that the Internet brings to consumers. Within a matter of seconds, anyone can get the products and services that they want through the Internet without having to leave the comfort of their homes. This is why many retailers are putting up websites to tap the online market and get their products to their customers instead of the other way around.<br /><br />Many of these online retailers put up gigantic catalogs on their websites, featuring thousands upon thousands of products. They even put up flashy gimmicks that will get their customers staying longer at their store. However, it is a fact that big product catalogs do not always work in online shopping. If the products in an online store's catalogue are not easily searchable, the customer will only get lost in the website and will not check out a single product.<br /><br />More information on the products, services and promotions of USNavySEALStore.com can be found at <a href="http://www.usnavysealstore.com">http://www.usnavysealstore.com</a><br /><br />Contact:<br />Jennifer Douglas<br />Telephone Number:888-762-6670<br />Email address:Jennifer@usnavysealstore.com<br /><br />###
