Evolution of The Height Site

The Height Site is the most comprehensive online resource guide for tall men, women, and teens. The idea for an archive of information dedicated to the topic of height evolved out of an online search for information and a realization that a centralized archive of resources was missing.

Really tall and short people are, out of necessity, used to shopping via catalogs. As the Internet has evolved to augment or replace catalog shopping, it makes sense that people would look for more information online.

The first incarnation of The Height Site was put online in March of 2002. Later that year, when our current domain name became available, we migrated the content and expanded it. Originally started as a one man operation, this project has expanded to a 'staff' of five volunteers. The addition of women and geographically disparate freelancers has given our newest version of the site a broader appeal and more of a general lifestyle focus. It's equal parts eZine and community blog. We hope you find it as useful as we do.

Resource Inclusion Policy

We depend on submissions and feedback from Height Site visitors both tall and short and all we require for inclusion in our directories is an email with a positive review of a product or service or a request for inclusion so our staff can ensure proper placement.

To remain a fair and impartial resource for height related information, we've decided to list products and services free of charge. We have recently begun to offer paid listings. They are clearly marked so that readers can differentiate between all types of listings.

Broken Links Policy

We check all the links before they're added to this Site, but the Internet is ever changing and pages get moved or removed periodically. We do our best to 'reprint' some articles on our own pages, but due to bizantine copyright restrictions, that may not be possible for every article. If you've found an article link or a Web Site link that no longer works, with the link information. Thanks.

A Site for everyone

We don't have a lot of time to dig up new material, and we rely heavily on submissions from reader like you to keep this project going. Everyone involved with the Height Site is over six feet tall and all of us are working on a freelance, volunteer basis.

The Height Site is equal parts eZine and community blog. It is basically a labour of love to ensure that everyone affected by or interested in height can use the Internet more efficiently to find valuable information and resources online.
