Castle Venture Group announced today that it had signed a financing agreement with Cyberank, Inc., the owner of Cyberank.com and its associated technologies. William M. Keever, Castle's CEO, stated, "Castle believes that cyber or internet rankings, also known as influence or friend ranking, is the next revolution in the internet. Google has already embarked on the business of creating a friend or influence ranking for people associated with social networks such as MySpace, Facebook or Linkedin. Cyberank takes this concept one step further by providing services designed to optimize a persons ranking on the world wide web. In the future, people looking for a job, a new client, or other career or business relationship will be evaluated not only by their resume, but by there web-ranking also. We can see a day when young professionals will routinely list their web-ranking next to their GPA on the top of resumes." Castle Venture Group is a private equity firm located in Nashville, TN. www.castleventure.com. www.cyberank.com.
