Geizhals Feed

Geizhals started in 1997 as a side project in vienna. Today it is part of heise media group and with 5.9 million visitors each month one of the most relevant price comparison websites in German speaking Europe.

Beside the two domains geinzhals.de and geizhals.at, products are shown on other websites of the heise media group, such as heise.de, golem.de, PC Games Hardware, WinFuture, techstage and testberichte.de.

Compared to other price comparison websites, geizhals has a much more technical look and feel and provides a lot of detailed filter options.
