Review sta.rtup.biz - the small business social network

Posted on June 10, 2008

Got an invitation last week to join sta.rtup.biz - the small business social network. You know I have a category dedicated to small business knowledge resources, so I’ve decided to make a review for it.

First thing, I tried to see what it does and got the answer from the opening press release: “Instead of going to MySpace to scour through teenagers and goth queens, the casual business owner can now have a home among his peers. Sta.rtUp.biz is a small business social network where networking and resources intersect.”

So I’ve decided to sign-up to see what is what. First, you can build your profile - no surprise here, and if you invite 5 more people you get access to the eBusiness library with over 165 ebooks (let me know if you want an invitation from me).

Also you get access to the discussion forum - and most importantly the discussions are moderated by 3 experts: a corporate lawyer is there to answer any legal question. The “Search Guru” guides your website up the Google rankings with the free search engine optimization, and the veteran serial entrepreneur acts as your mentor on all business management and strategy.

A section you definetively don’t want to miss is the Motivational Video Clips area - like this video about a 5 years old entrepreneur - who did well. Looking at the Ask an Expert area - plenty of action there - good sign.

Starting a Business had never been easier! Well, have a look and let me know what you think.

    Looks like a cool site. They seem to have a big focus on The Big Idea.
