Exhibit 99.1

Website Pros Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2006 Financial Results

JACKSONVILLE, FL – February 7, 2007Website Pros, Inc. (Nasdaq: WSPI), a leading provider of Web services and online marketing for small and medium-sized businesses, today announced results of operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2006.

David Brown, President and CEO of Website Pros, stated, “We were pleased with the company’s performance in the fourth quarter, which was highlighted by better than expected revenue and record profitability. Strong growth in revenue and customers related to our RenovationExperts.com and 1ShoppingCart.com offerings led to the overage in our fourth quarter revenue. We also improved the productivity of the web services’ sales team. We believe there is still room for further improvement.” Brown added, “The fourth quarter also marked a milestone for Website Pros in that it was the first time in five years that our non- Discover related leads generated the majority of our new business. In addition, we continued to expand our channel with high quality partners, and we will continue to execute against this strategy to maximize our distribution reach and minimize the risk profile for the company.”

Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2006

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2006 was $16.4 million, an increase of 46% on a year-over-year basis. For the fourth quarter of 2006, subscription revenue increased 57% to $14.9 million, license revenue decreased 23% to $1.1 million, and professional services revenue increased 17% to $390 thousand, compared to the fourth quarter of 2005.

For the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company reported record net income available to common stockholders, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), of $4.8 million, an increase from net income available to shareholders of $509 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2005. Fully diluted GAAP earnings per share were $0.25 for the fourth quarter of 2006, an increase from earnings of $0.03 per share in the fourth quarter of 2005. Per share amounts are based on weighted average fully diluted shares of 19.7 million and 14.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2006 included a $3.2 million net tax benefit resulting from a reduction in the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation reserve. In prior periods the Company recorded a full valuation allowance due to sufficient uncertainty regarding the realizability of its deferred tax assets.

Non-GAAP Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2006

Website Pros reported record non-GAAP net income of $2.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2006, an increase of 100% as compared to $1.35 million in the fourth quarter of 2005. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share was a record $0.14 for the fourth quarter of 2006, an increase of 75% from $0.08 in the fourth quarter of 2005.

All per share numbers for non-GAAP net income per share are expressed on a weighted average diluted per share basis. Non-GAAP net income excludes stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense related to acquisitions, and the income tax benefit resulting from the reduction of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Preferred dividends are excluded from non-GAAP net income per share in prior periods, as all outstanding shares of preferred stock were converted into shares of common stock and all related accrued dividends were eliminated in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, which was completed on November 7, 2005.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in the press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Kevin Carney, CFO of Website Pros, commented, “We were pleased that the company was able to deliver profitability at the high-end of our guidance in the fourth quarter, which represented the 6th consecutive quarter that the company has met or exceeded our profitability expectations since the IPO. This quarter marked the 12th consecutive quarter of operating profitability, and 2006 represented the first year the company delivered a double digit Non-GAAP operating margin on a full year basis. We remain optimistic about our ability to further improve our operating margins in 2007 based on the momentum of our business and scalability of our business model.”

Other Fourth Quarter Highlights

The Company also had the following other financial and operating highlights during the fourth quarter of 2006:

 

   

Total net subscribers at the end of the fourth quarter were approximately 74,000, an increase from approximately 73,000 at the end of the third quarter, including subscribers from the company’s core web services as well as our Leads.com, RenovationExperts.com and 1ShoppingCart.com offerings.

 

   

The Company’s monthly customer turnover decreased to 5.4%, based on the subscriber and related churn levels from the company’s core web services as well as our Leads.com, RenovationExperts.com and 1ShoppingCart.com offerings.

 

   

The Company signed three new distribution related partnerships in the quarter, including The Company Corporation, which is an industry leader in providing incorporation services for new businesses; Authorize.net, which is one of the largest Internet gateways for companies that have an on-line e-commerce store; and Internet Secure, which is a subsidiary of one of the top 5 credit card merchant processors in the United States.

 

   

The Company continues to make progress with its partner diversification strategy, with Discover related leads generating 46% of the company’s new sales units in the quarter and non-Discover partners increasing to greater than 50% of new sales units for the first time in five years.

 

   

The Company released NetObjects Fusion 10, the latest version of the easy-to-use website building software. Licence revenue from sales of NetObjects Fusion more than doubled from the third quarter – the largest sequential jump driven by a new release in the company’s recent history.

Financial Results for the Full Year 2006

Total revenue for the full year 2006 was $52 million, an increase of 38% on a year-over-year basis. For the full year 2006, subscription revenue increased 44% to $46.8 million, license revenue decreased 7% to $3.6 million, and professional services revenue increased 25% to $1.7 million, compared to the full year 2005.

For the full year 2006, the Company reported record net income available to common stockholders, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), of $8.6 million, an increase from net loss available to shareholders of $329 thousand in the full year 2005. Net income available to common stockholders for the full year 2006 included a $3.2 million reduction in the Company’s deferred tax asset valuation reserve, resulting in a net tax benefit of $3.2 million. Fully diluted GAAP earnings per share were $0.44 for the full year 2006, an increase from a loss of $0.05 per share in the full year 2005. Per share amounts are based on weighted average fully diluted shares of 19.4 million and 6.2 million for the full year 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Website Pros reported record non-GAAP net income of $8.5 million for the full year 2006, an increase of 197% as compared to $2.9 million for the full year 2005. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share was a record $0.44 for the full year 2006, an increase of 120% from $0.20 for the full year 2005.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the measures in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of the SEC Regulation G. Website Pros believes presenting non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP operating margin is useful to investors, because it describes the operating performance of the Company and helps investors gauge the Company’s ability to generate cash flow, excluding some recurring charges that are included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Company management uses these non-GAAP measures as important indicators of the Company’s past performance and to plan and forecast performance in future periods. The non-GAAP financial information Website Pros presents may not be comparable to similarly-titled financial measures used by other companies, and investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or in substitution for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP.

Management will host a conference call to discuss the Company’s results and other matters related to the Company’s business today, February 7, 2007, at 5:00 pm EST.
