Honestly a static page that's literally just text, a few hyperlinks, and a few lines to prettify is like, peak design. No bullshit. A 9 year old could design the site and that's a complement.
You can run this site on a mobile phone from 2002 and it would run perfectly.
I can use my TUI based browser to use the site and have the same experience as every other user.
They've achieved a lightweight, ultra-compatible, informative site with just enough eye candy (those lines) to make the site feel at least as engaging as a newspaper.
This is brilliant, 10/10 would hire that web dev.
Edit: Single line -> lines, idk what happened my eyes shit the bed or something
It even has an ad!
I wonder how much Geico pays for that spot.
Probably nothing because he owns Geico, it's just self-promotion
Well, based on their commercials I'd say it has to be less than 15% of their competitors' revenue.
It can even be hosted for free in AWS with nothing but a publicly accessible S3 bucket.
You don't need to, you can do this on your own.

When I was a teenager, my dad tried to impress me with the bloated website of his new employer. Unskippable propaganda flash banners, baffling organization, messy color scheme etc. He asked me what I thought and I told it was hideous and terrible. He probably thought I was being spitefully contrarian but it really was an ugly site.
