I was wondering how often you update your posts or “articles” about certain banks and credit unions. I think your site provides a great service, but some things are a bit outdated. For example, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw a 7-month, 7% CD listed on your site (https://bankdealguy.com/top-6-or-9-month-cd-rates/) offered at Great Lakes Credit Union. I clicked on the Great Lakes Credit Union link on your site to go to glcu.com. I clicked on View Current Rates on that site and I don’t see a rate or terms that are anywhere close to 7 months, 7% (https://www.glcu.org/bank/certificates/share-certificates/). The post on your site is from 22 November 2018, so it’s not that old. I was disappointed not to find this offer. Several other offers form other credit uniton were like this as well. I know offers come and go, maybe even daily, and I know you have a disclaimer that “This website is intended for entertainment purposes only”. Maybe your site is a hobby, not a full-time job and you don’t have time to make constant updates. I was wondering if you told banks and credit unions that you’re trying to maintain accurate information about their institutions so that you can drive customers to the bank sites, would they be willing to send you updated rates whenever they change, or maybe weekly at a minimum. And, if someone opens an account or CD at that bank, you should get a referral fee from the bank. Maybe when people click on a bank site link, have them log into your site and maybe ask them for a $1 “donation” to keep your site going and as up-to-date as possible (sort of like what wikipedia does now). Maybe you have something like this already in place. As I said, I think your site provides a great service and if people knew they were getting very up-to-date information, I think they’d pay $1 or $2 for your service if they knew it was accurate as of a certain date. You could mention and “as of date” next to the bank’s URL. Just a thought to improve your site.
