Yes, the tech blogosphere is crowded
September 9th, 2008Maybe I need to start following my own advice. A couple weeks ago I wrote about finding opportunities in the blogosphere where I referenced a study posted on SEOMoz showing the topical coverage of the top blogs. It turns out that 57% of the top blog are, like this blog, technology related - a crowded marketplace to be sure. I recommended that aspiring internet entrepreneurs focus on building blogs covering subjects that are underrepresented in the blogosphere - things like sports, religion, hobbies, etc.
Yet I myself continue to write daily posts on this tech-related blog. Fortunately I rarely spend more than 30 minutes or so each day writing for the Review App blog and building a base of useful online content is a long term endeavor. But look at it this way: would a venture capitalist be interested in financing yet another tech-related blog? Probably not.
Of course we’ll continue to post here regularly on entrepreneurial and internet related subjects because we think there are plenty of areas still not being covered in the marketplace. At the same time we’ll be investing in our other blogs covering subjects outside of tech and we’ll keep you posted on how those other blogs fare. Stay tuned!
