Earlymiser.co.uk Auction Deals
After a long time I have decided to launch a UK auction site. I had intended to launch a full blow UK version of Earlymiser but I had some new thoughts about the comparison shopping market. This site like Shop Sort is based on a single web service (Ebay in this case). So the Earlymiser UK is a much simpler service than the US version. As I mentioned in my Christmas post on Thalasar, I have found the meta shopping experiences provide depth at a significant cost of the overall user experience. It's a natural human instinct to want to provide the most comprehensive list of results but at the same time, it's clear that both the performance overhead in hitting so many web services and the overall page size means that I don't get as much Google love. Google loves small footprint pages and that's not likely to change in the near future. While this site doesn't launch in time for Christmas, it certainly will be available next year and for the future. It's a great way to shop and save some cash. It's designed to be complimentary with Best Buys Zone UK and it focuses specifically on Ebay and auctions. It has a far more coverage of office and industrial supplies which is a new area for me. I suspect that my new shopping service, Zestly is going to take more work than I am anticipating so I am going to be spending my spare time working on it.
