Welcome to version II of JDsBlog.com.
Yesterday, I talked about stepping out of the woods in regards to the web industry. There is a time when a person becomes so inundated with their profession that they lose site of pretty much any focus that they once had.
I preach over and over that a site needs to add value in order to be successful online. But I think I may have been forgetting that myself. When I look at JDsBlog, I ask myself, would I visit? Is their truly resourceful content that I couldn’t find anywhere else? Does he put a spin on things that would make me read everyday?
And the answer is, “sometimes.”
I love writing articles about startups. Not in a ‘TechCrunch launch’ way, but in examining just what it is that makes a startup successful. Critiquing what someone is doing right. Explaining how it can be done better. Explaining how to start a business. Things of that nature. And those are the articles that I would frequent if I was just a user.
Frankly, I find simply repeating news quite boring. There are a lot of places online that do it better with more consistency, so why bother?
So, with the rant aside, I welcome you to the rebranded JDsBlog. “The Strategy of Startups.”
The Strategy of Startups is really quite simple. It is a place for entrepreneurs, freelancers, professionals, businessmen and women to gather and learn/participate on the strategy of starting a business. This is going to include profiling startups in a way that we may all benefit. Establishing market needs. Looking at their marketing. Finding ways to come up with ideas. Things of that nature.
When I look back on my almost one year history of JDsBlog, it is amazing to see the progression. And I thank you for coming along with me. We went from Firefox and open source, to startup news and business, to the strategy behind it all. I am truly looking forward to this jaunt though, because I think it is the ultimate in seeing exactly what it takes to start a company.
Oh, and two more things. Adsense is gone. It was an eyesore. And all commenters will have a link back in the next day’s post. Without fail. So if you like links, get familiar with the comment button :0)
Thank you to Kyle and Cristina for yesterdays comments!
