SimpleWeather Mobile in the wild!
After the Twitter feeds (which are now pushing out weather updates to a few hundred people), we got started on SimpleWeather for mobile devices! We’re excited to announce it’s now published and accessible at http://simpw.com. We’re still working out all the kinks, so contact us with any problems or suggestions!
Feedback Friday
We get good feedback from people quite alot. It helps to keep us motivated to continue improving the site.
Here’s what “Lady A” from Texas had to say:
“It’s nice to find a weather site that isn’t cluttered with too much info…thanks and keep up the good work!”
Dana from Cleveland:
“Great site! I’ve used weather.com, but it takes forever and a day to load. I love this page and this is my new weather place (saw it on Web Worker Daily).
I was wondering if you could add Cleveland, Ohio to your list of Twitter cities. That would be great.
Keep up the great work!”
Merrill from Austin:
“Very impressed that you now show the time the data was last updated. This is truly a 1st class operation. From this old, retired meteorologist — keep up the excellent work. It is GREAT!!!”
That’s all for now. We’re gearing up to launch a new part of SimpleWeather this weekend!
Lower advertising rates
In an effort to start landing more private advertising, we are lowering our advertising rates. Now as low as $2 cpm for blocks of 500,000 impressions. We’re also offering a $50 referral reward to anyone brings us a client! Find out more about advertising on SimpleWeather.
New Server Migration Complete
SimpleWeather has been growing, and we’ve outgrown our shared hosting! Don’t worry, that’s a good thing. The folks at mediatemple hooked us up with a custom configured dedicated server that will make our current site load even faster, and accommodate future growth.
