1-800 Radiator Launches Blog

The Nation's Largest Radiator Distributor Enters the Automotive Blogosphere

SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - October 25, 2007) - 1-800 Radiator has launched a blog on their online storefront, Radiator.com. The blog is authored by Geno and Francis, two radiator industry insiders. The blog is just one of many features on Radiator.com designed to inform customers about cars, cooling systems, 1-800 Radiator's services and their company history.

1-800 Radiator started Radiator.com in 2000. Providing the customer with the information they need to take good care of their automobiles has always been a top priority. On the site users can find articles describing how to remove and install a radiator, make emergency repairs when a radiator fails, and maintain a radiator in peak condition. Their 'Cooling System Glossary' lets a do-it-yourselfer with no automotive experience know what the cooling components under the hood are called, and what function they perform. A chat feature guides users in a search for the part that fits just right in their vehicle. According to John Thys, 1-800 Radiator's Director of Internet Operations, "The blog is part of our longstanding plan for Radiator.com, making it a one stop resource for radiator and automotive information, and in addition to a full service web store."

The blog can be viewed at www.radiator.com/blog. The first posts give a bit of detail on the radiator industry and the 1-800 Radiator business model. Future posts are expected to go into greater detail about the radiator market, automotive news, and information about cooling systems. Additionally, the blog authors hope to create a place where readers get the information they want and need when they need it. Let us know what you'd like to hear about and "we'll blog it."
