Wait, looking further either you've obfuscated most of the info in the post, or I've been looking at the website of your competitor that offers exactly the same functionality. If it's that last one, you could look up his turnover at the KvK to estimate his market share. He seems to have had quite a bit of press coverage too, so if he can't turn it into something big, either he isn't trying very much (quite likely) or it's really a hard market (also likely :) )
- wasigh 16y agoI guess you looked into my competition: cambiumned.nl or extraned.nl? The main purpose for us to start our site was because the geocities like of those sites. I guess you nailed it here: - Your wife doesn't sound committed. No selling the thing (migrate to a new domain now to get rid of the name association, what's the problem?), no charging more out of fear, fear of losing control. If it's a hobby for her, and you want it to be more, you have a problem. Solve this first. We must decide if it is hobby or business :)
- roel_v 16y agoYes that's the one - I guess another remark is that your SEO needs work :) For 2.50 you can get his yearly accounts from http://www.kvk.nl/handelsregister/zoekenframeset.asp?zk=0&url=https://server.db.kvk.nl/TST-BIN/FU/TSWS001@?BUTT=302826140000 http://www.kvk.nl/handelsregister/zoekenframeset.asp?zk=0... - that should give you some insight into the amount of customers he has and how viable the market is.
- wasigh 16y agoRanking higher is hard, those sites have been around for ages. We rank quite well on: "Nederlands oefenen" & "Werkwoordspelling" for example. I don't know if he is obligated to send his yearly accounts to the KVK? Getting more info on the marketsize is a good tip :)
- roel_v 16y agoDepends on how he's incorporated, as an 'eenmanszaak' he's not.
