July 30, 2011 By 1 Comment


Boston, MA (PRWEB) March 21, 2006

Credit.com has selected LifeTips for content development services and link building strategy and, together with LifeTips, announces the launch of the Credit Report site in the LifeTips network to millions of knowledge seekers at LifeTips. Credit.com has become the exclusive Credit Report client in the LifeTips network.

Sample Credit Report Tip:

About Credit Reports

?A credit report is a compilation of information that gives potential creditors a snapshot of your financial responsibility. Credit reports are used by potential creditors, lenders, businesses, employers and insurers to help determine your creditworthiness. In some cases, you will be asked to give permission to have a creditor view your report. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, consumers do not always have to give their permission. Make sure you are aware of the specific disclosure policies for different types of businesses. If you look carefully at the application fine print, you?ll see language that gives the potential lender permission to pull your credit history. Your credit report is not the only determining factor that lenders consider when making decisions about whether or not to grant credit. Each lender has its own criteria.?

“Credit.com is dedicated to helping consumers increase their credit scores and optimize their credit reports,” said Credit.com President and CEO Adam Levin. “The LifeTips site is an important addition to Credit.com?s educational outreach program that already includes partnerships with credit experts, a credit blog (http://www.creditbloggers.com) and a unique learning center.”

BigTip Brings Big Deals To Suburbia

July 30, 2011 By 1 Comment


Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 18, 2011

The daily deal just got a lot more interesting, and Groupon and LivingSocial may not be the only well-known names in the space for long. Founded by executives and technologists from pioneering Internet companies, including Yahoo! and InfoSpace, BigTip is bringing big deals to small towns, with more than 100,000 discounts offered in 6,000 markets nationwide. Impressive, especially considering the company is calling the event a ?soft launch.? Targeting the largely ignored suburban market, BigTip typically offers 20-40 deals in most suburban cities, with some markets featuring 100 or more. By contrast, daily deal site LivingSocial and Groupon are mostly in major metro markets ? and both only offer one deal to subscribers each day.

?In this deal space, it?s evident that there?s virtually no barrier to entry ? but tremendous barriers to scale. The sophistication of our technology breaks through these barriers,? said Chris Matty, BigTip?s Executive Vice President of Business Development. ?We don?t believe delivering a single deal a day in a major market best serves consumers or merchants. We?re able to offer consumers a greater selection of more relevant deals and allow many more merchants to promote their offers. No longer will suburban markets be underserved.?

Founded in 2010, BigTip is still in its infancy and it?s already serving suburbia well. A random search of the site yields a wide variety of great deals. From 50 percent off 10 yoga classes in Rockville, Maryland to 2-for-1 golf in Kalamazoo, Michigan, BigTip has something for everyone. There are over 200 deals available right now in Virginia Beach, the 39th largest city in America, a market not yet reached by existing daily deal sites.

In order to bring all these deals to so many cities, BigTip works with a network of partners from traditional print media sources. ?The rapidly evolving digital advertising market is threatening the local coupon magazine and the ValPak or MoneyMailer franchisee owner.? Matty points out. ?BigTip partners with these groups, delivering digital solutions that offer growth and breathe new life into an industry with a notoriously bleak future.? As for what comes next for BigTip, Matty hinted that there would be more big news to share in the next few months. With the ability to expand to new cities at unprecedented speed, there?s no telling how much money BigTip can save suburbia.

About BigTip

Founded in 2010, BigTip soft launched in May of 2011 with an impressive list of more than 100,000 local deals in approximately 6,000 individual markets. As a result of highly scalable technology developed by the BigTip team (including former Yahoo!, InfoSpace and Intelius executives), the company possesses a unique ability to target the largely ignored suburban deal market, which in total has 2.5 times the population base of urban hubs. Different from other daily deal sites, BigTip features multiple deals per day in a given city that are delivered to consumers based on what is most relevant to each user.

RepairClinic.com Launches Appliance Repair Tip Site at LifeTips.com

July 30, 2011 By 25 Comments


Boston, MA (PRWEB) August 3, 2006

Appliances make life easier – until they break. RepairClinic.com selected LifeTips for content development services as part of a national effort to share time and money saving information about appliance parts and repair with millions of readers. RepairClinic.com is now the exclusive sponsor of the Appliance Repair tip site in the LifeTips network.

?Most of us have experienced the frustration of a trusted appliance going south on us – and it always seems to happen at the worst possible time,? said Byron White, President of LifeTips. “From air conditioners to washing machines, our Appliance Repair tips will help consumers identify the problem, and find online help for their household repairs.”

Sample Appliance Repair Tip:

Why Does My Refrigerator Freeze My Food Even At The Lowest Setting?

?Refrigerators depend on the proper function of their thermostats, and if the thermostat goes bad, the operation of all the other refrigerator parts is affected. If you have frozen food even at the lowest setting, you should test the thermostat and replace it if it is defective. It is often found at the bottom of the refrigerator under the floor, but some models have it located in the back of the freezer compartment. You may need to remove the floor panel, shelving, or other obstructions to get at the thermostat.?

“RepairClinic.com is very excited to partner with LifeTips to provide a central resource for Appliance Repair tips and knowledge. As the leading online retailer for Appliance Repair, we offer ease of purchasing, a large product selection and excellent service,? said Chris Hall, President of RepairClinic.com.
