Happy 3rd Birthday to Bizcommunity.com!!
Bizcommunity.com turned three years old last week - no mean feat for an online media business that literally started with a computer box and a desk in true "Bill Gates" style, in the first Bandwidth Barn project in Cape Town for Internet start-ups. Founders, Andre Rademan and Ken van Ginkel have built Bizcommunity.com up to a phenomenal viral marketing success story and the most widely-read media in the business-to-business media & marketing space in South Africa. With subscribers increasing at a rate of 1000 a month across Africa, and internationally too, Bizcommunity.com is now on: 28 000 REQUESTED subscribers a week for the daily and weekly ezines; 33 000 unique website visitors per month; and 820 000 website pages viewed per month! And the Cape Town HQ (including sales & production) has just moved into new offices: 4th Floor, Buitengracht Centre, 125 Buitengracht Street, Cape Town, 8001, South Africa. Editorial is still headquartered in Johannesburg. So here's a big THANK YOU to all our loyal subscribers and advertisers that continue to support us - this is your community and we couldn't do it without you!

Have a good one! Louise Marsland, Editor, editor@bizcommunity.com
