Local Napa Valley Organization helps bring accountability to
STD testing in effort to stop the spread of STD’s
Napa, California March 15, 2012 – 1250media, a Napa Valley based full-service website design, development and marketing company, today announces the official launch of the new Tested Negative website /web/20121017093513/http://www.tested-negative.com, which is built on 1250 media’s proprietary Content Management System Impulse CMS™ and also hosted by the company. Impulse CMS is a simple yet powerful tool that allows website owners to easily update and manage the content on their website, saving businesses time and money.
Tested Negative offers an innovative online way for the dating population to take control of their health and contributes to their peace of mind. A prospective partner can find a participating clinic or health center locally, from which sexually transmitted disease (STD) test results are obtained. With Tested Negative, prospective partners can avoid some of the awkward moments when discussing STD status and building trust with each other. This online service is secure and 100% confidential, helping to ensure prospective partners are “clean” and STD free.
Visitors to the Tested Negative website can download the simple consent form, find a local clinic nearby using the simple search tool, and have an STD test done. Once their STD test has been processed, the clinic will share their results with Tested Negative. If they test negative for sexually transmitted diseases, their information will be entered into the Tested Negative database with a unique numeric code that can then be shared with any potential partners who can visit the Tested Negative website and verify their results as proof that they are clean. Tested individuals can then order a Tested Negative wristband printed with their test ID number for ready access at all times and to break the ice when discussing STD test results with a potential partner before becoming intimate. A customer’s information on Tested Negative is completely secure and will expire every six months to encourage them to continue to be tested regularly.
“We’re proud to debut the Tested Negative website in an effort to help increase accountability and awareness with respect to STD testing,” stated Gary Thompson, President of 1250media. “We worked closely with Tested Negative to design a website that aligned with their branding and incorporated usability best practices to clearly communicate the simple, yet powerful mechanic that encourages visitors to take action and get tested,” said Thompson.
“Launching the Tested Negative website is an exciting first step,” said Luke Petrakis, the founder of Tested Negative. “My business has and an impactful website thanks to 1250media, now everyone has the tools and information they need to get tested, get a Tested Negative wristband, and help stop the spread of STD’s,” stated Petrakis.
