VISTAPRINT SECURES OVER 75,000 PAYING WEBSITE SUBSCRIBERS
Hamilton, Bermuda — December 10, 2008
Company Hits Milestone in Eight Months; Helps Small Businesses Worldwide
Market Online With Easy-to-Use Website Solution
VistaPrint Limited (Nasdaq:VPRT), the small business marketing company, today announced that it has secured over 75,000 paying subscribers with its unique Website solution. This robust offering, which launched originally in April of this year, includes design, hosting and customization for small business and consumers who want a dramatic Web presence. Many happy VistaPrint customers worldwide have found the solution amazingly easy to use, affordable and simple to maintain. It has empowered many small businesses to easily market their businesses online in a cost-effective manner.
“VistaPrint’s addition of Websites has helped me market and grow my business tremendously. It was quick and very easy to put together,” said Nicole Pulley, owner of Interior Affairs in Helotes, Texas. “I now have a great, professional Website that has generated nearly 1,000 hits in just four months. VistaPrint has excellent customer service and is always available to answer questions and make sure their customers are completely satisfied.”
Knowing that more and more activity is taking place on the Internet, and its small business customers had a desire to make an impact online, VistaPrint sought to meet that demand with a simple to use Website solution. The company’s talented in-house software engineers were tasked with generating a complete end-to-end tool that would be easy to use for those with no programming skills. The result was a Website solution that has generated thousands of unique and dynamic sites across the Internet. Many of these sites have been created by users who had little in the way of Web experience, something that isn’t as easy with various competitor sites. VistaPrint currently offers its Website solution in 17 of its 19 localized markets, including the United States, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, European Union, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
“When we first came up with the concept for the Websites offering, we knew that making it simple to get started was paramount. Essentially we wanted to take the experience of creating a business card on our site – using templates and simple design studio tools – and apply that to creating a Website,” said VistaPrint’s Marketing Manager Elise Rhoads. “With over 75,000 paying subscribers today, we feel that we have accomplished that goal to a degree. It’s clear that our solution has truly taken hold and we’ve succeeded where some competitors haven’t. But we continue to make improvements and additions to the offering as we get subscriber feedback.”
The company recently announced several additions to its Websites solution, which starts at just $4.99 per month and includes a one month free trial. For example, a Creative Services team is dedicated to working with customers to design and launch their own site should they choose. Other features include a payment option in PayPal which can allow small businesses to make sales, and e-mail addresses have also been added to a number of the packages. Also, songs and video can be embedded into the sites for an extra personal touch.
In addition to Websites, VistaPrint offers small businesses peace of mind by providing everything they need to market their business. Products include high-quality and low-cost printed products such as holiday cards, brochures, custom postcards, and return address stamps; promotional apparel including hats and T-shirts; and marketing services such as copywriting, design and postcard mailing. The company also offers a number of helpful videos and articles on marketing their small business in its virtual Learning Center.

VISTAPRINT ANNOUNCES EUROPEAN STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH VIKING DIRECT
Hamilton, Bermuda — December 10, 2008
VistaPrint to Provide European Web sites Where Small Businesses
Can Purchase Marketing Products
VistaPrint Limited (Nasdaq:VPRT), the small business marketing company, today announced a multi-year strategic partnership with Viking Direct, the leading stationery and office products supplier, that will enable both companies to expand their European reach by giving small business customers online access to VistaPrint’s high-quality printed products through Viking Direct Web sites. Viking Direct is the direct-mail office supplies channel of Office Depot (NYSE: ODP) in Europe.
As part of the agreement, VistaPrint will develop Viking branded e-commerce Web sites for Viking Direct to be launched across Europe. The program will begin in the United Kingdom and is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009, with other countries to come online thereafter.
Each site will be customized for local language and currency, allowing for a seamless buying experience for small business customers no matter what country they are located in. Customers will also have the ability to design and customize their marketing products - such as business cards, postcards, invitations and brochures - with fonts, colors, and logos using VistaPrint’s online design studio. Customers will check out through the Viking Direct site, providing for a smooth and convenient transaction process.
“Selling to localized markets across Europe is something that VistaPrint has been doing for years, and truly has been a leader in this area, with a number of their own sites reaching countries like Germany, Spain and the UK,” said Office Depot Europe’s Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Dirk Collin. “Partnering with VistaPrint gives us the ability to expand our global reach with products we don’t currently offer while using local languages and payment options. This lets us continue to help small businesses worldwide.”
“Viking Direct is clearly the leading force in the stationery and office products space in Europe, and as a world class organization, partnering with them made sense for us as a business,” said Janet Holian, president, VistaPrint Europe. “Expanding into European markets is something that VistaPrint has done very successfully over the past few years under our own brand. We’re excited to bring that knowledge and experience to this critical relationship.”

MAKE SURE SANTA DOESN’T MISS YOUR HOUSE THIS HOLIDAY SEASON
Hamilton, Bermuda – December 4, 2008
VistaPrint’s New Holiday Signs Transform Lawns into Festive Landing Pads
VistaPrint Limited (Nasdaq:VPRT), the small business marketing company, today introduced a line of holiday-themed lawn signs designed to accent and highlight the festive nature of the season. These signs are the perfect outdoor decoration for welcoming guests to a holiday party, wishing holiday cheer to anyone who passes by, or lending direction to a very important passing sleigh.
VistaPrint’s lawn signs may be customized to meet the needs of each customer’s imagination, and holiday templates are available. As the product has taken hold in the company’s ever expanding product line, it has been used for countless applications, and this holiday season will be no exception. Customers can upload their own designs or use a VistaPrint template.
Getting children involved in the magic of the season is easy when it comes to anything involving Santa. VistaPrint is featuring a customizable sign that encourages the man of the season to stop by with his goodies. With a callout saying “Santa Stop Here” and a bright, fun image, the sign can even be customized with any message, such as “We have cookies!” or the family’s name. There are few children who don’t have a countdown going from December 1 until Christmas Eve and this lawn sign helps to ease their fears in case they may not have been on the “good” list all year.
“The holiday season is a time for creativity and joy, whether it’s through your choice of holiday cards, presents or decorations,” said VistaPrint’s Holiday Content Strategy Manager, Sarah Stefany. “We love when our customers have fun with our products and use them in unique ways, which is why we created these lawn signs with specific holiday overtones. Our talented designers kept these fun themes in mind when designing templates to help our customers, especially young children, design their signs this year.”
As with all of VistaPrint’s products, the high-quality holiday lawn signs are fully customizable and can be created using a pre-made template or by uploading a complete design. Signs are completely weatherproof and are available with a metal stand for displaying outside. All lawn signs are available in two sizes starting at just $11.99. To order lawn signs from VistaPrint, visit www.vistaprint.com/lawnsigns.
