Monstermoving.com Sweepstakes to Award Hundreds of Prizes that Make Moving Easier

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 20, 2001--To kick-off peak moving season in grand sweepstakes style, Monstermoving.com, a leading online source of relocation information and a division of TMP Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ:TMPW), announced its "Win a Free Year on the Monster" Sweepstakes. The Sweepstakes offers Monstermoving.com site visitors an opportunity to enter and win one of more than 20 different home, lifestyle and relocation prizes, including an amazing Grand Prize of more than $50,000.

The Sweepstakes will run from April 18 to June 15, 2001, in conjunction with the start of the peak moving season - the time during which the majority of this year's 43 million relocating Americans are expected to move. Aiming to relieve some of the time, stress and cost associated with moving, the "Win a Free Year on the Monster" Sweepstakes offers site visitors up to 16 chances to enter to win a wide variety of exciting prizes. The Grand Prize winner of the "Win a Free Year on the Monster" Sweepstakes will receive a cash prize of $50,000 - enough to cover an entire year's rent or mortgage as well as the cost of utilities, housekeeping or laundry service, and landscaping service. The Grand Prize package winner will also receive the service of a personal "organizational expert" to help kick-off their "free year" on the right foot.

Each week, three winners will receive one of the home, lifestyle and relocation-related weekly prize packages including a free Penske(R) moving van rental, a free Philips Personal Video Recorder with lifetime TiVo(TM) service, and a $500 gift certificate to Circuit City(R). Additionally, every 100th registrant will become an "instant winner," receiving a $10 gift certificate redeemable at Home Depot(R) (while supplies last).

"Monstermoving.com's ultimate goal is to save consumers time, money and reduce the stress associated with moving. Our promotion takes this concept to a whole new level by providing great prizes that accomplish this and much more," said Tom Zorn, President, Monstermoving.com. "Not only will consumers benefit, but so will our partners through increased exposure to a highly targeted moving audience seeking relocation products and services."

Monstermoving.com provides its partners with access to a highly targeted moving market by assisting them in identifying and reaching potential moving customers during all stages of the relocation process. Site traffic, which has increased by almost 300% since Monstermoving.com's launch in October 2000, is expected to further increase due to this promotion and subsequently provide partners with exposure to an even broader customer base.

Sweepstakes registration is available via the Monstermoving.com home page www.monstermoving.com. Site visitors can register for the Sweepstakes drawings once per week.
