Want to Partner?

We've been recently working with popular deal sites to aggregate more deals into our engines for our visitors to vote on.

The US Site is pretty flushed out, but we're still looking for high quality sites.

Also if you are a Canadian or UK deal site, we would be interested in working together.

Please email us at dealcomet gmail.com. or post a comment.

Have fun shopping!

Great Partners! More Deals! Hurray!

So the team at Deal Comet has started partnering with some popular deal and coupon sites to provide you with the best bargains across the web. You'll start seeing more and more of them soon.

Currently, we are testing a few select sites, and we are trying to improve our backend algorithms before introducing more sites. So if you have a great site, and we've talked about partnering, you'll soon start to see your deals soon enough. If we haven't contacted you, we probably haven't found your site, so just leave us a comment down below, and we'll contact you shortly.

Keep rating our deals and coupons, so the best bubble up to the top.

Stay tuned for the best deals.

Quick Visual Refresh

We've been listening to your feedback (apparently over the holidays). Click Here We decided to push out the latest build after a test pass. This is a purely UI refresh, so this is actually working on the same backend as our main page, so it was very low risk.


What changed?
1. Added a colored background/margin, so you won't burn your eyes from the excessive white that was on the page (our test team wanted this too, because the site was too bright when working late at night). Some of you mentioned we needed this "spice."
2. "View All " links for Most Favorited and Most Recent, so you can see more deals.
3. Header is cleaner
  • cleaner logo
  • banner is no longer blurry
  • new tagline : "saving you money, one deal at a time"
  • made navigation bigger and more tab-like (we'll actually fully flesh these out into cool menus once we solidify what the menu will do and how it will work).
  • what are those words under the search boxes? why those are recent searches, and now it is clearly marked

Of course, if anything is broken and blocking you . . . Please let us know what happened too, so we can fix it.

We're also still talking about whether we should move the pictures of the products to the left, and how to revamp the voting. We're also implementing other suggestions, so sorry if your suggestion didn't make it yet . . . it is the holidays ;) Give us a break!

Anyways, keep the great feedback coming. We're always listening.

Alpha . . . Not Beta

We were browsing our server logs, and we noticed we were getting traffic from: http://momb.socio-kybernetics.net/alpha/deal-comet

Lo and behold (is that right?) , we've got our own little spot in the Museum of Modern Betas (although technically we're still in Alpha).

Looks like people are starting find our little corner of the internet. We've still got a lot of goodness planned before we actually move into Beta, so you'll see our service improve a lot.

Anyways, back to work.
