"WikiHorseWorld.com is a very sophisticated full featured equine website and Hillorie's background and experience in both technology marketing and equestrianism make her the perfect choice to become our new Senior Vice President of Marketing" said Don C. Balton, President and CEO of Dream World Technology Inc., the company which owns WikiHorseWorld. Mr. Balton explained that WikiHorseWorld's unique mixture of high end horse related products and services has made their search for a qualified marketing executive somewhat challenging. "We expect that Hillorie's unique combination of high tech marketing experience along with proven horsemanship abilities and her unbridled passion for horses will be a tremendous asset for WikiHorseWorld as we expand our reach to horse lovers and equine enthusiasts around the world" added Mr. Balton.

"My initial impression of WikiHorseWorld was that they were a breath of fresh air for the worldwide online horse community and that they've demonstrated what a true horse lover's website can be and should be" said Mrs. Bachmann-Vidal, owner and founder of SPORTHORSEFINDER.com. Mrs. Bachmann-Vidal explained that these two equine websites complement one another because SPORTHORSEFINDER.com exclusively targets sport horses such as Endurance, Eventing, Dressage, Show Jumping, and Flat Track horses whereas WikiHorseWorld.com encompasses all types of horses, all horse disciplines, and a much broader range of horse related products, services, and issues. "I truly believe that WikiHorseWorld.com represents the evolution of the horse website and offers an unparalleled suite of equine products and services to the global horse community" concluded Mrs. Bachmann-Vidal.
