Atlanta-based SiteMinis, Inc. announces the launch of GasRunner.com, a mobile-optimized website that offers consumers the convenience of locating the lowest-priced gas when they need it most -- when they’re mobile, from their mobile phone.

While PC based websites may offer the ability to research gas prices, these sites are not configured for the mobile phone. GasRunner.com is designed exclusively for mobile phones, giving consumers the convenience and usability that accommodates their busy, on-the-go schedules.

By visiting GasRunner.com on their mobile device, consumers simply enter a city or zip code to find gas at stations within a 20-mile radius, then get driving directions using Google Maps. The site, which launched on July 17, currently features more than 300 gas stations across the country, and it anticipates including most major metropolitan markets within a year.

“The price of gas is one of the main topics of conversation almost every day,” says Marci Troutman, SiteMinis Founder and CEO. “Most consumers don’t think about getting gas until they’re in their car, so it’s just logical that the information be easy for a customer to get when they’re mobile.”

GasRunner.com also benefits gas station operators. Because gas prices change quickly and frequently, the site places real time pricing updates at the station owner’s fingertips, rather than relying on consumers to post updates. For a minimal annual subscription fee, individual stations are assigned a unique user ID allowing them to update pricing in real-time as often as necessary. To subscribe to GasRunner.com, station operators can contact SiteMinis by calling (770) 579-8898 or via email at gasrunner@siteminis.com.

Utilizing SiteMinis’ proprietary Mobile-Redirect© technology, GasRunner is accessible on most every mobile phone on the market today, including the iPhone, Blackberry and Treo. For more information, visit www.GasRunner.com.
