Grandparents.com Membership Surpasses 600,000

NEW YORK, June 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Grandparents.com (OTCBB: GPCM), the Ultimate Resource for Grandparents™ and a premier social media website for Americans over 50, is pleased to announce that over 200,000 new members joined the organization in April and May. The company's 50% growth in two months makes it one of the fastest-growing online membership organizations. This growth is all the more notable in light of the fact that the Company's primary marketing and promotional initiatives have not yet been introduced.  Grandparents.com's current membership stands at 610,000.

Steve Leber, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, said, "Grandparents.com grew exponentially in the past two months because for far too long one of our nation's largest, wealthiest and most wired consumer markets has been underserved and overlooked. Our grandparents are America's greatest national resource, and a rapidly expanding market that we at Grandparents.com are uniquely prepared to serve as grandparents become more 'tech savvy' each and every day."   According to a July 2011 'Met Life Report on American Grandparents,' by 2020, 80 million Americans will be grandparents – that's one in every three U.S. adults!

Mr. Leber added, "At Grandparents.com, we are dedicated to providing every 50+ American relevant information, entertainment, advice and services they can trust, and making sure they can access it simply and quickly whether they're using the web, mobile technologies or the social media networks they're embracing at an accelerating rate."

About Grandparents.com  At Grandparents.com, our goal is to connect and inspire today's families.  As the Ultimate Resource for Grandparents™, we seek to strengthen the ties between family members by promoting wellbeing, and by providing smart information and expert advice on what really matters to our members, from health and money to travel and retirement.  Our stories and videos celebrate the role of grandparents, and encourage them to tell their own stories, passing on a meaningful legacy to their children and grandchildren. As we approach the official Grandparent's Day launch of our new website and App, we will be unveiling new, enriching experiences for our users.
