IRVINE, Calif. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) March 9, 2007 --
PRIMEDIA’s Automotive.com today announced it
will be offering its popular Gas Price Finder widget free to local news
and information sites.
“Gas prices and the weather are two ubiquitous
topics of conversation for people today,” said
Josh Speyer, CEO of PRIMEDIA Automotive Digital. “We
have seen great response to this tool and think it would make a natural
addition to a local Web site to enhance content for their visitors.”
In a matter of minutes, Webmasters and bloggers can download the widget
from http://www.automotive.com/gas-prices/feeds.html
and have the tool up and running on their sites. The widget is branded
under the Autmototive.com moniker and provides a draw for drivers eager
to find the best gas prices.
Users can view up-to-date price per gallon statistics for all grades of
gasoline: regular, plus, premium and diesel fuel, station-by-station. A
helpful feature is an extensive search tool that helps locate stations
by zip code or on a state-wide, county-wide, or city-wide basis,
allowing consumers to make the smart decision whether driving near or
far.
Speyer added, “The great thing about this
handy program is that it is constantly updated, so prices are never out
of date and that can save consumers time and money instead of driving
around looking for the lowest pump prices.”
In addition, the Fuel Finder presents the latest national average price
per gallon,so consumers can make comparisons fairly on the stations they
decide to patronize.
