Saving Money 2.0 - Cost Comparisons Go Global

Tough economic conditions inspire creative solutions to reduce costs and remain competitive. Initially launched as a domestic "search engine for shipping rates", ShipGooder.com recently added the ability to compare shipping costs for international shipments.

Visitors to ShipGooder.com simply enter the U.S. origin zip code, the destination country and the package weight. Within seconds, a rate table appears comparing rates and services from international couriers, including FedEx, DHL and the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). Visitors can see variations of their shipments instantly by changing any of the shipment options. Rates and services can also be downloaded into a spreadsheet for further analysis.

As with other features on the website, such as the national directory of couriers (www.shipgooder.com), ShipGooder has maintained its simple, fast functionality and is available free of charge, with no requirement for visitor registration.

"We have had many requests for international shipping rates (www.shipgooder.com) to be included on ShipGooder," said Nancy Chafee, VP Marketing. "International rates have been a common request, and we responded as expeditiously as possible."

Recent recommendations for ShipGooder from the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press, NBC, CBS and ABC have all generated a great deal of "buzz" for ShipGooder's innovative cost-saving technology. Perhaps no one can say it better than a ShipGooder customer: "I have been looking for a website just like this for international shipments. This makes estimating shipping hassle free!"
