    What would make you want to visit the site at least once a day?
    More hyperlinked lists of reviews on the right side of the page. How about a scrolling list of the last 30 days of reviews? I know I can search but often a quick scroll is actually faster if I have forgotten a name of a product.

    Real-world reviews are what I value. It’s why I visit the site daily.

  22. I visit weekly and have for some years.

    I usually visit with a laptop but occasionally from my phone.

    More givaways would encourage me to visit every day.

    2) I follow the feed/visit the site using an 8″ Windows 10 tablet (Dell Venue Pro)
    3) I’d visit more if there were more Android reviews (weekly raves/rants on your new Pixel perhaps) and if you ventured more into software.

    1. This is not an attempt at a further entry or an attempt to sway the judges but I did want to thank you for your work over the years. I’ve been reading the site for over a decade (since you and Judie ran it with a PDA focus) and there’s always something that catches my eye.

  32. I’m a new visitor.
    Reading the site on my laptop would be my preference
    I think really honest, critical reviews would make me come back daily

  33. (1) I visit a couple of times per week
    (2) I read on my laptop almost exclusively
    (3) I would probably “visit” more often if you had an app that ran on my Android tablet (or my phone, but preferably the tablet) – and I would probably be a bigger contributor to the conversations

    2. I mainly use my tablet to check for daily updates.
    3. I already visit every day. However, I prefer the old or classic website layout and frequently have to switch to it using the link provided when it defaults back to the new layout.

    Bonus, I already subscribe to the newsletter.

    2. Mainly on a desktop computer.

  59. Hi Gadget Lovers. Not only have I visited “The Gadgeteer every day for years but I also purchase many from the reviews! One of my favorite gadgets is my iPad Air Two and for the last couple of years, that’s how I’m on your site, Julie. Used to use my laptop but they are too old-fashioned for me. My day wouldn’t be the same without the new gadget reviews every single day. I’m way hooked. Let’s put a buy button on your site to read about it, buy it – boom!

  60. 1- I am a frequent visitor to the Gadgeteer site.
    2- I read the site on my Nexus 9 tablet mostly but had to go to my Surface Pro 3 to enter the contest.
    3- More mini-reviews, photography/camera, mobility and audio product reviews would make me want to visit the site at least once a day.

    I am newsletter subscriber, tweeted this contest and already liked your Facebook page.

  61. I visit the site almost every day, I like to follow up on your reviews because the products you review the things I’m interested in buying, I followed your site for years and I find that your reviews can be trusted more than those on a lot of other sites.

    I normally visit your site on my desktop but occasionally I use my laptop.

    As long as you keep posting the interesting topics and great reviews I’ll keep visiting on a daily basis.

  62. I am a frequent visitor to the Gadgeteer site.
    I read on my laptop.
    I don’t know what you could do better. Your reviews are great. I read them daily.
    I have made purchases from at least 4 company’s based on your reviews that I didn’t even know existed.

  63. 1. Am a frequent visitor.
    2. Read both on phone and computer. Hate the mobile interface – doesn’t page correctly and often has material from two different pages overlaying one another. If there is something I am particularly interested in I go to my computer to avoid the mobile interface mess. I would note that I have not seen that interface style anywhere else – ever – and I visit a lot of sites. Desperately wish they would dump it.
    3. I already generally visit daily. To repeat what I said in response to question 2, I would be even more regular if they would dump the mobile interface for something that actually worked.

  64. 1) I am an almost daily visitor.
    2) I mostly read on a desktop
    3) As I’m already a daily visitor, I can say that I return often just to see new gadgets, but the occasional sock review never hurts.

  65. I am a frequent visitor to the Gadgeteer
    I nmainly read the site on my tablet (I-Pad)
    I already pretty much visit the site once per day! If you are really looking for a way to drive daily traffic, I’d suggest a daily deal sort of thing, where you partner with a tech website to provide some sort of deal to visitors who are referred or come directly from the gadgeteer. You get the traffic, and they get tech-savvy first adopters looking to buy gear (or apps) at reasonable price. Win-win!

  66. 1. I was a frequent visitor many years ago and recently (within the past 3-4 months) rediscovered it.
    2. I view the site the same way I always have, on the computer; though I do check the mobile site when out and about.
    3. I already try to visit nearly every day. Perhaps it would be interesting to have a beta tester component to the site, where volunteers could beta test new gear not available for retail.

    Wide range of entertaining reviews on available gadgets and also crowd funding projects.

  68. New to the site, though have heard of it here and there.
    Only would visit on my phone (which can make navigating difficult with all the content)
    This comment took three attempts as it shifted to other pages mid-sentence.
