One of the most unique things about ITworld is our “Contribute” area. Our audience—IT professionals, IT vendors and industry thought leaders—trust and respect our content and repeatedly return to engage with the community. Our site structure offers unique opportunities for our advertising customers to become a part of the dialogue and a resource for tips and best practices, and has lead ITworld to a 43% increase in revenue year-over-year. Here is an example of an IT tip sent to us by a vendor: Kevin Haley, Symantec - 3 security best practices you should be following (but probably aren't)
In fact, ITworld was named to Media Business’ list of 10 Great Media Sites this year in part because of our community/social interaction aspect! We were also recognized for several new content innovations such as “How I Got Here”, “The Daily Tip” and “Lessons Learned.” All these great features focus on practical advice for IT professionals on topics ranging from technologies to watch, to implementation of best practices, to how to advance their careers.
Do you have content you’d like to share? Read some FAQ about contributing to our great site.
I hope you’re able to participate and look back here for more interesting information on ITworld in my next entry.
