BioLife Solutions Launches Search Engine Optimized Website and 1,000 Free Samples Offer

BOTHELL, Wash., Dec. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- BioLife Solutions Inc. (OTCBB: BLFS), a leading developer, manufacturer, and marketer of proprietary biopreservation media products for cells, tissues, and organs, today announced the launch of its new corporate website that includes the following features:

• Built on the Genesis Framework for WordPress, which incorporates state of the art code and smart design architecture optimized for search engine visibility, so prospective customers quickly find the website and its biopreservation resources.
• A free product sample offer (http://biolifesolutions.com/sample/) integrated with automatic lead creation in SalesForce.com, BioLife's cloud based customer relationship management system.
• An integrated blog updated with customer product experiences and application notes authored by members of BioLife's Scientific Advisory Board, customers, and partners in the field of biopreservation.
• An updated investor presentation and corporate data sheet.

Mike Rice, BioLife Chief Executive Officer, commented on the launch of the Company's new website by stating, "Our new site has been designed to increase awareness and adoption of our high-quality cGMP HypoThermosol, CryoStor, and BloodStor® biopreservation media products.  Many biopreservation practitioners continue to use non-optimized, home-brew cell storage and freeze media formulations.  This integrated free product sample offer should generate future revenue, as nearly all prospects decide to become repeat customers once the superior biopreservation efficacy of our pre-formulated, serum-free, protein-free products is demonstrated during a product comparison."

BioLife's new website was designed in collaboration with Medical Marcom, a Seattle-based medical device marketing firm, and Two Hour Blogger, a Tulsa-based web design agency.
