SanDiego.com & Mindgruve Announce New Partnership

SanDiego.com selects San Diego-based MIndgruve to develop their new brand and online community.

SAN DIEGO,CA – Community information portal SanDiego.com has selected premiere San Diego-based integrated marketing agency Mindgruve as a strategic partner in developing their new brand and online community.  “Everyone here at SanDiego.com is excited to be working with Chad Robley and Mindgruve on this project. Our branding and the presentation on our site is critical to the success of our company’s growth in the future. Mindgruve has strong marketing experience with a rare combination of technical ability to help us pull it off.” says James Earwicker, CEO of SanDiego.com.

Mindgruve’s technology and digital marketing expertise, combined with a long track record of Internet marketing success was a key factor in SanDiego.com’s decision to partner with Mindgruve. SanDiego.com publisher and founder Mark Burgess says, “Mindgruve gets what the online space is about, both from a technical and marketing vantage point. That will make our collaboration much more efficient and productive than when we were working with marketers that didn’t understand how people operate online or programmers that didn’t understand how branding influences design. This is going to be fun.”

Mindgruve and SanDiego.com have great expectations for the new brand and look forward to it becoming the dominant source for local news and information in the online space. Mindgruve president Chad Robley states, “We are very excited about partnering with SanDiego.com. With local newspaper readership in dramatic decline, the San Diego community will look to more convenient, robust online sources for their local news, sports, lifestyle, classifieds, entertainment, and social media.” Robley believes that SanDiego.com will become a model for how people get local information in the future, “The way people are consuming media is changing and evolving at warp speed. Local media channels like SanDiego.com will be the beneficiaries of such dynamic trends. We feel like SanDiego.com is well positioned to be not only the leading San Diego community and information resource but also the number one geo domain destination in the United States.”
