Internet Marketing Success Lessons from Evan Williams April 7, 2010

Posted by Andrew Wee in : Internet Marketing , trackback

In case you aren’t familiar with Evan Williams, he’s one of the founders of Blogger.com (acquired by Google in 2003) and later Twitter. So EV (his online moniker) knows a thing or two about success. What you may not know is that Blogger was on the verge of going bust when all the employees at that time left, and Evan was the only one running it for a time.

Evan has also had a string of failures (or projects that didn’t pan out along the way), so it was good to hear about the reality element of building an internet-based business.

There’s a lesson for affiliate marketers, internet marketers and product owners too if you listen to his interview by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) about his strategies in developing concepts, launching companies, monetizing them, marketing, and a whole bunch more.

Here’s the BBC link.

Blogger is great. I have tried with it with a lot of blogs, got some money but I also do not know why my sites was flagged. Business is shut down then I have to change to Wordpress self-hosted. Could you comment ?!
