I'd focus on making some niche website for Tunisia since that market should be pretty open
- csomar 18y agoTunisia don't connect to Internet alot, also they are not really interested on HighTech in the exception of few around the web.
- vaksel 18y agoyou need to look to the future, sure right now its probably pretty weak, but if you get your market share now, 5 years from now when everyone is on the web, you'll be the eBay, Craigslist, Digg, Facebook for your region.
- csomar 18y agoyou mean I target "tech-savvy" people. So currently there are 10% person with ADSL, which means more than 100,000 connect in Tunisia. Facebook won't work, as most TN goes to the real facebook. I think a Digg like news will be fantastic idea, as Digg share things related mostly to the American Culture, Digg TN can be TN related. But as you said, 5 years are not few, I have Computer, Internet and many other bills.
- gexla 18y agoWrong. You just have to be good at marketing yourself. It also helps to go for a niche area which you can stand out from the crowd. I have landed nearly every Odesk and Elance job I have applied for with zero rating (just started and haven't completed anything yet.)
