they want and are prepared to make a purchase. This adds up to a higher conversion rate.

pound on the roof (over 200/year!). Now located in Santa Clara, CA, we track prices on
millions of products online, and we still have a fondness for solar power.
From the beginning, we have focused on technological innovation, so you have the tools you
need to get the best price on every purchase. We were the first site to offer price alerts and
price graphs, and continue to offer useful tools you won't find anywhere else.
For example, our search by specs tool lets you quickly find the cheapest product that meets
your needs. We were also the first site to offer verified price alerts — we make sure the price is
actually available on the merchant's site before sending you email.
