Move Rolls Out The Welcome Wagon

Westlake Village-based Move has rolled out a new local neighborhood guide. The firm said this morning that it is rolling out a new on line local business directory, WelcomeWagon.com, which combines information about local businesses with consumer reviews and special offers. Move has tapped into Welcome Wagon, which is an existing brand which provides coupons and information to people who have recently moved into a neighborhood. The new site puts Move into the local search area, including local directory guides, local business reviews, mapping, and general interest articles. Move was formerly known as Homestore. Move purchased Welcome Wagon from Cendant in 2001, when it purchased the Move.com and Rent.net businesses.
