The 3 Best Websites for Online Businesses and Marketing
With so many websites dedicated to online businesses, it’s sometimes hard to skim through all the clutter, the information that’s not relevant to you or your business and getting to the articles that are. I thought I would ask you on Linkedin about your favourite places to find useful articles online. Your answers have been very helpful, so thank you everyone for sharing your favourites with me. Feel free to click the ‘Tweet’ and ‘Like’ buttons above if you like the article.
Here are the top three websites you recommended the most:
Mashable is the largest independent news source dedicated to covering digital culture, social media and technology. Mashable’s 20 million monthly unique visitors and 4 million social media followers have become one of the most engaged online news communities.
Linkedin Today is LinkedIn’s social news feed, a place where you get to see the most popular articles that interest you. Here’s how it works: you choose the industries you’re interested in and Linkedin automatically feeds the most popular/read/shared stories into your personalised Linkedin Today page. A great way to find articles you’ll love, easily.
Google News Alerts is a service that emails updates of the latest relevant Google results (web, news, etc.) based on your queries. Lots of people love it because it sends you customised content and you can be very specific with your keywords.
Bonus:
TechCrunch came in 4th place. It is a web publication that offers technology news and analysis, as well as profiles of startup companies, products, and websites.
Other popular websites include Zite, ReadWriteWeb, Summify, SmartBrief, Technorati, Practical ecommerce, HubSpot, Forbes Tech, Online Retailer, eConsultancy, Social Media Examiner, .NET Magazine, Wired and Engaged.
One thing most of the favourites include is the capability to customise content. That’s important because of the sheer volume of information available online now.
