Coupon Codes is the new site
Coupons.com has been very fortunate to get a lot of free press about clipping coupons and printable coupons. Here are some of my favorite links to various articles. Few people know that we are also behind Coupon Suzy as well as Safeway coupons and Kroger coupons. Regardless, here are some of my favorite stories about Coupons and coupons.com.
A recent press round started big in the San Jose Mercury News
Coupons.com is in the Wall Street Journal
Heather Dougherty from Hitwise did a tight mention at the e-metrics optimization conference
Brandcaster in the San Jose Mercury News too
Steven declares a recession on cnn.com :p
The big one, Steven on the Today show
This is my favorite so far. Some poor frustrated newspaper guy from Pennsylvania (right near where I used to live actually), rips on Steven after his Today Show appearance, saying that Steven "doesn't look much older than my golf shoes." Hahahahahaha. Oh bummer, I don't think this is a good link any more.
I like this simple article running through different coupon websites. Nothing earth shattering, but original work from a local, which is cool to see.
MSNBC television show with coupons.com mention
There are a ton more, but many derive from these in some form. These are my faves for now I guess :-)
It's funny that a prevalent theme is that the online coupon traffic increase is a sign the economy is sucking. But if the economy was broadly sucking, wouldn't coupon usage be up 83% in other channels as well? Hitwise gets the closest to seeing what's up by at least noticing that Coupons.com growth is a LOT of the growth for this sector online, but they don't go so far as to notice that many of the other sites experiencing growth are partners "powered by" coupons.com like Coupon Suzy, the television face of coupons.com and the others in the space are perhaps in the coupons.com wake ???
