We are true believers. And one more Yes - this site is a business case.<br /><br />We do something we truly believe is important for lots of people including us. And we like it so much that we want it to be our business. That was the point we started from. I wouldn’t bore you with our startup story now but if there is an interest I can send it privately per e-mail.<br /><br />By the way the project name is InsurEye not Credit Card Navigator. The mentioned tool is our first service that is absolutely free for every user.<br /><br />And it will be free as far as we own the project. Mike Holman is absolutely right – we currently work on large products that will help to get understanding across all insurance types. And some of them are not supposed to be free.<br /><br />Anyway we will be happy to give you an information about them as soon as we’re ready to present them. For those who are interested it’s possible to subscribe for our newsletter on the site (the link can be found in the article).<br /><br />Anastasia MityaginaMichael Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362529610470788243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-11388564004021708532020-11-02T09:33:49.643-05:002020-11-02T09:33:49.643-05:00The first reply above is the Mike Holman's com...The first reply above is the Mike Holman's comment:<br /><br />Does a website have to forego all compensation to be able to provide good information?<br /><br />I don't see any ads, but it's very possible that they have worked out deals with the companies providing the cards.<br /><br />It appears the insurance tool is just their first offering. They will probably charge for some of the future offerings.<br /><br />This is no non-profit. ;)Michael Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362529610470788243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-61538394474228010182011-06-23T15:59:43.442-04:002011-06-23T15:59:43.442-04:00@Mike: I agree that good websites can have compen...@Mike: I agree that good websites can have compensation. However, the nature of the compensation matters. For example, if a website purported to be a whistleblower for bank misdeeds and they were compensated by the number of people who sign up for bank accounts, we'd be justified in being suspicious. None of these concerns seem to apply here, though.<br /><br />@Canadian Investor: I had a feeling that this site had some good information. I'm glad to hear your confirmation and that you found it useful.<br /><br />@Anastasia: For what it's worth, I like quirky things :-)Michael Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362529610470788243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465015914589377788.post-24612092547209303262011-06-23T10:56:27.371-04:002011-06-23T10:56:27.371-04:00Good website it appears.

Good usability too. Might even change my card as a result!CanadianInvestorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05645767559302303541noreply@blogger.com
