Business.com just officially launched Work.com on 9 october ? I don’t know how it’s oficially launched on 9 october, because it was already launched in 2005? From the press release:
Business.com today announced the launch of Work.com (http://www.work.com), a Web 2.0 site designed to help the more than 25 million U.S. small business owners run their businesses. Work.com features unique “How-to Guides†for more than 1,000 business topics, ranging from start-up basics to advanced management techniques. The Guides are written by business experts who can now share their expertise with others through a new form of “Expert Generated Content†(EGC). Work.com is being launched by Business.com, the leading business search engine and directory.
- Leading business search engine and directory my ass.
- It’s a god damn article directory. It’s just related to Business more or less.
You can suggest an existing guide or create a guide for yourself.
I like the learn, discover, share explanatory splash graphics though and they have a blog too.
when i saw it, i was looking for the “powered by phpld” :)
A shitty website, for such a heavy weighted domain
What’s the benefit to becoming a guide? Do you get a link or other credit? If not, waste of time. Otherwise, could be useful as a promotional tool for the guides.
I guess you get the same benefit as writing an article (some small PR – not pagerank – for your name/business, and a few links) on any other article directory.
I never wrote an article (myself) for article directories, and I would not START with Work.com anyway.
