Monstermoving.com Reports Significant Increase in Unique Site Visitors; Site Traffic Grows Nearly 300% Since October Launch

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 23, 2001--Monstermoving.com, a leading online source of relocation information and a division of TMP Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: TMPW), today announced an increase in monthly traffic of approximately 300% since the site's official launch in October 2000. These findings, reported by leading Internet and digital media measurement company, Media Metrix, confirm Monstermoving.com's growing leadership in the online relocation industry.

Media Metrix' research further revealed that Monstermoving.com's traffic for the month of March increased by 82% over February 2001. The site's substantial traffic growth is a clear indication of Monstermoving.com's ability to meet the needs of moving consumers by providing a reliable source of relocation information. As consumers prepare for peak moving season - the time during which the majority of this year's 43 million relocating Americans are expected to move - they are able to utilize Monstermoving.com's comprehensive and easy to use relocation resources and services to manage all stages of the moving process. These significant results can also be attributed to Monstermoving.com's continuing integration efforts with Monster.com, the leading global careers site.

"Our extraordinary traffic growth clearly demonstrates that Monstermoving.com is establishing itself as a favored and invaluable resource for relocating consumers," said Tom Zorn, President, Monstermoving.com. "The site's incredible traffic growth greatly benefits our various partners and advertisers by exposing them to a larger targeted moving audience which will further their brand awareness."

To build on this growing momentum and ensure continued site growth throughout peak moving season, Monstermoving.com has launched the "Win a Free Year on the Monster" Sweepstakes. This Sweepstakes will give away hundreds of prizes geared toward relocating consumers, including a Grand Prize of more than $50,000. The Sweepstakes is intended to generate consumer awareness of Monstermoving.com and attract a large moving audience as the relocation season gets underway. The resulting traffic will enable Monstermoving.com's partners and advertisers to reach an even larger base of targeted moving consumers during the early stages of the relocation process.
