Kids Meal Deals Needs Recruiters
Dana Davis, a stay-at-home-mom (sahm) with two young boys, had an idea she believed in and she didn’t let all of the “good” reasons not to run with it get in her way. She has boldly launched a new site for families looking for affordable family restaurants called Kids Meal Deals.
Kids Meal Deals offers parents a searchable database of family and budget-friendly restaurants. Restaurants can be found by zip code, food type (coming soon), or name. The resource is easy to use and can be especially helpful when planning a Summer vacation or road trip to unfamiliar territory.
Dana realizes she can’t bring in restaurants that want to promote their locations by herself so she developed a recruiter program for stay at home moms and dads. Basically she’s looking for restaurants to subscribe to a monthly listing in Kids Meal Deals database for a reasonable fee. She needs help getting the word out to restaurants outside of her Columbus Ohio area. In return for bringing in a new restaurant you’ll receive a $50 reward and immense appreciation that only a stay-at-home mom can describe. For more information on this cause visit: Kids Meal Deals Recruiters.
We wish Dana and her family much success in their venture!

Using Thumbnails on Your Website
No, we’re not talking about scratching your website’s eyes out with your thumbnail… We’re talking about the small pictures of websites that you see on some sites like the Momz.com directory for example. Momz.com presents a thumbnail of every one of the 1,500 or so websites listed in the directory. This helps the visitor determine which sites are worth visiting with a quick glance.
These “thumbnails” help filter out foreign sites, offensive sites, and generally offer us a better surfing experience.
We use Thumbshots, a free tool to pull the thumbnail images from their database and present them when needed. All they ask for in return for this highly useful service is a link back to their site on your website.
To show you how easy it is I’ll explain what I did to add the thumbnails to this post:
- Register at Thumbshots
- Once registered they share the small piece of code needed to add the thumbs to any post or web page you want.
- Using Wordpress you just place your cursor where you want to insert the thumbnail and press the picture icon just as you would to insert any photograph.
- This time you’ll enter the code from Thumbshots and after the “=” equal sign simply type in the URL of the website and like magic their tool pulls the thumb of the website and places it where you wanted it.
- To move the thumbnail over to the left and have the text wrap around it using Wordpress you click on the
image, click on the LEFT justify icon or button and the picture is moved to left and text wraps around automatically.
Give it a try on your website. Post any questions in the comments area and we’ll try to help.
