No more fighting on your phone with frustrating text input boxes just to post a comment! Seattle Bike Blog finally has a mobile-friendly version.
This Obama-era technological advancement is only for phones and small tablets, and we don’t currently plan any significant changes to the desktop version. If it ain’t broke, right?
This change also signals a change to our advertising options. Seattle Bike Blog depends on a combination of reader supporters and partnerships with local businesses to make ends meet.
(Warning: Sales pitch ahead)
We now offer two sizes: A wide “Banner” spot ($90/30 days) and a large square “Showcase” spot ($150/30 days). The showcase ads are shown on every page view in the “Bike-Friendly Business Showcase,” but now they also appear in middle and at the the end of story content.
So if your businesses is not advertising with Seattle Bike Blog, now is a great time to start. The site draws about 100,000 page views every month, mostly from Seattle and greater Puget Sound region. Our ad options were already good deals, but the new mobile spots make both of them even better.
We also have a option for a larger “Site Sponsorship” option for anyone looking to really make a big splash with a campaign. If you have any questions about this or any other advertising options, email [email protected].
As with any technical change, please let me know if find any bugs either by emailing me or commenting below.

Nice new site. Looks great on my powerful ‘web phone’.

Very nice!
It’s hard for me to see links though
That’s a good point. I changed them to blue. Thanks!
Testing the indent rules for nested comments #5 reply
Looks good! 4levels of indent keep the replies from shifting too far to the right. Nice job.
I’m a thread nesting moderate. No threading is annoying b/c conversation can’t really happen. But too many levels and it’s just weird. Even three levels may be excessive. Could get away with two, but meh. It works.
The new style looks great!
