SWIMINFO.COM celebrates its eighth birthday today as the world\u2019s leading independent resource for swimming.  Voted \u201cBest of the Internet\u201d by <i>PC Magazine<\/i> earlier this year, SwimInfo.com currently attracts over 91,000 weekly visitors, generating over a quarter of a million hits per day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat makes SwimInfo special is that its content is so rich, attested by the fact that visitors spend an average of close to ten minutes on the site while reading current stories,\u201d commented Brent Rutemiller, CEO for Sports Publications International \u2013 Publishers of <i>Swimming World Magazine, SWIM Magazine<\/i> and <i>Swimming Technique Magazine<\/i>. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSwimInfo.com will soon be posting its 7,000th free story\u201d, Rutemiller noted. \u201cThis milestone could only have been achieved through the tireless efforts of Phil Whitten, Editor-in-Chief, and through the financial assistance provided by SwimInfo.com\u2019s sister print publications.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has certainly been a journey worth embarking on since the launch of the site. We have weathered the (dot com) shakeout, and continue to utilize the latest technology while confronting exciting challenges in the marketplace. However, to continue funding SwimInfo.com, it is imperative for us to tie in the revenue growth of our print publications. To accomplish this, we created the premium section to SwimInfo.com as an \u201cadded value\u201d for our loyal print subscribers and as an incentive for new people to subscribe to our print publications over the internet,\u201d concluded Rutemiller.<\/p>\n<p>SwimInfo.com visitors are accustomed to getting their daily swimming news for free. \u201cWe are absolutely committed to providing the swimming community free daily news,\u201d commented Dick Deal, Publisher. \u201cA subscription to <i>Swimming World<\/i> and <\/i>Swimming Technique<\/i> is actually a vote to keep funding the free news stories while getting additional value with premium access.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate SwimInfo.com\u2019s Eighth Birthday, Premium Members in the United States will receive <b>Free Shipping<\/b> for any product ordered on SwimInfo.com until July 15th. Members must log onto the Premium Area before making their purchase. Premium membership is our way of thanking <i>Swimming World<\/i> and <i>Swimming Technique<\/i> subscribers for their financial support of SwimInfo.com. <\/p>\n<p><a href=https:\/\/www.swiminfo.com\/premium\/Default.asp>Take me to the Premium Area<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PHOENIX, Arizona, July 1.
