Hosted Solutions
Publishers large and small use P2i’s array of customizable, turnkey, hosted products for entire publications, sections and vertical-specific solutions.
Utilizing proprietary technology, P2i converts print media ads into interactive, online content that is seamlessly incorporated into existing newspaper/publisher web sites. All print content ads are first created electronically at the newspaper or publisher, merged with electronically-created editorial copy, paginated using sophisticated software, edited on a local or wide area network, and transmitted to the printing presses. At the end of every business day, publishing clients send to P2i, via ftp, the same electronic versions of ads and pages that got to press. These files are received by P2i’s production group, processed, quality checked, and delivered to the hosting servers by the start of the following business day.

Verticals our hosted solutions support:
Once P2i and the client determine the look and feel that the client wants, a functioning “demo” is created to be approved by the client. This will be a fully functional, interactive version of the client's print media.
The production process uses highly-sophisticated, proprietary tools to segment and index (database) text and graphics that comprise the elements of P2i’s dynamic web page solution. As users click their way through the finished web content, pages are built dynamically from the indexed content. This enables a broad range of features including “search”, “sort” and “browse” functionality.
