About Kimberly Danger and Mommysavers.com
How it Started: Mommysavers.com was
conceived in early 2000 while its founder, Kimberly Danger, was
home on maternity leave after having her daughter. "Staying
home was new to me, and I found myself with tons of creative
energy, but very little money. I had just created a personal
Web page to share baby photos with friends and family -- and
loved doing it!
At the same time, I was researching ways to save
money after giving up my full-time job. I found a lot of great tips
and suggestions for parents to save money, earn extra money, and
live on one income. However, I didn't find them all the same
place. I wanted to create a website like the one I had looked for.
So, I set out to build a website with my tips and ideas."
Kimberly taught herself how to design web pages and
began doing research for content. When Mommysavers.com was launched
in April 2000 it was a simple site with about 20 pages. Now in
2008, it receives over three million page views per month and is one
of the leading Google pages for money saving tips and stay at home
moms. The readership of thrifty moms drives the site; providing
great tips, advice and ideas.
