SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kidsocial announced today that it has launched www.Kidsocial.com, a new social entertainment network providing all the features kids want, such as chat, blogging, personal avatars and photo sharing, but with strong protections that parents can feel good about. For companies with properties that appeal to kids, Kidsocial offers access to an audience that’s been hard to reach and identify on the web before now, kids 6-13. Kidsocial gives brands all the tools they need to present, promote and monetize their content, all at no initial cost.
Kidsocial is a social network especially created for kids under 13 who want to connect and share with their real-world friends, yet avoid the danger of an open profile or website where anyone can search for and contact anyone else. In the closed Kidsocial network, encrypted Friendship Codes allow only connections with real-life friends, and scalable controls let parents approve connections and monitor activity.
On Kidsocial kids interact with your property at its own microsite via avatars, virtual goods, games, blogging, and more, and share the experience with their friends. Each new partner brings in thousands of fans, exposing your brand to a new, rapidly growing audience.
“This generation expects you to be online in an interactive way,” said Tim Baio, founder of Kidsocial. “That’s a tough hurdle for many companies, so we offer a simple solution that’s free to start using your own branded content, which we can also help you create.”
Baio and his team have been entrenched in the virtual worlds and kids space since 2005 and have been developing Kidsocial over the past 36 months.
Kidsocial is inviting companies with new or established properties for kids to join the fun. Kidsocial will be at the International Toy Fair in New York, February 12-15 at Booth #3116. To make an appointment, please contact Michael Devine at MDevine@kidsocial.com
