We are in the “final” testing of our new website. Unless we have another setback in the coming days we should be able to bring the site up within the next week to 10 days. Give us a few more days to make sure the subscription system is working properly and then we will need time to migrate all of our members over to the new site.
When we get within a few days of launch we will provide details on how to make sure the images show up when you receive the newsletter, the number of ways to read the newsletter and information about the depth of the new website.
We have been holding off on soliciting advertisers for the new newsletter and website so we will begin rolling that information and pricing out over the next week or so. If you would like to receive a media package please send us an email at: info@SteelMarketUpdate.com
As always thank you for your business as it is truly appreciated by all of us here at Steel Market Update.
