New Project, looking for a partner...

mattsmithefc · July 4, 2017

Hello all.

I'm currently in the very early stages of starting a new project, and I'm looking for a partner to help me take the project forward.

My aim is to create a website/blog, where people can sign up and post blog posts, if approved by moderators and be listed on our website. It will of course be football related and the reason I'm looking to do this is to give people a platform to reach people, as I've conducted some small research and people are often holding back in creating their own blog due to lack of an audience, the aim is to bridge this gap.

I feel it's a niche market and has huge potential. People are always looking to get their opinions heard and I believe this is a great platform for them to do so.

If you're genuinely interested/ want to hear more, email me at - efcsticky@gmail.com, or pop me a message on here.

Matt

Hi Matt.

Please have the courtesy to ask permission prior spamming/advertising in future;

Advertising
If you would like to plug/advertise a website or service, please ask permission prior doing so. Permission can be obtained from a moderator or admin, failure to do so will result in your post and possibly account being removed.

Good luck with it, but feel you're over egging it a bit. I have to disagree with your view - plenty of platforms exist. Every Everton fan site will carry articles submitted. The genuine fan sites like Here, NSNO, ToffeeWeb, EAW are all hugely appreciative of any articles;

The platforms with huge audiences are readily available. As are the hundreds of blag fan sites ran by media agencies like ReadNetwork, SBNation, Freshpress Media etc.

There's no excuse for any football writer nowadays to not have a platform to have their works published - they can even setup their own blog in minutes.

Isn't that just the same as a forum?? Somebody creating a thread is just like a blog?

I could be totally wrong and probably am.

The gap in the market for such a thing is the width of a split pube there must be millions of online blogs
but of course if said blog was not censored and immune to libel then yeah great idea

will the website be called dogging.com for clarity
