Hartsdale, NY (PRWEB) February 20, 2008 -- Cut-It-Out Communications, Inc. (CIOC), a full-service public relations and copywriting firm, today announced the launch of its new website, www.cutitoutcommunications.com, and the inauguration of a comprehensive online PR program.

The program offers an introduction to blogs, online press releases, content provision, e-newsletters, online syndication and search engine optimization. CIOC partnered with Calico Systems, an Internet marketing/web development firm, to create the website.

Willy Gissen, President of Cut-It-Out Communications, said, "Our firm and Calico Systems developed a special synergy as we brainstormed on content and site design. The result was nothing short of a work of art. Calico is a truly amazing organization and should be considered by any company serious about revising its website."

Joanna Cali, President of Calico Systems, added, "We were very impressed with Cut-It-Out Communications' commitment to online services, and we look forward to collaborating with them to offer a unique blend of SEO, site design and usability, and public relations."

The website describes CIOC's five departments: public relations, copywriting, political communications, interactive services and grantwriting. Special introductory programs are offered for standard PR and grant proposals as well as online PR.

The new site uses unique design elements such as a noisy typewriter on the home page, a nodding donkey for political communications and a flash-card display on the interactive-services page. Graphics with a typewriter motif help to emphasize the firm's focus on copywriting in all its assignments.
