'''MyWikiBiz''' is a new directory where you can [[Keyword:=Author Your Legacy|'''author ''your'' legacy''']] on the Internet.  We think you are '''''notable''''', even if [[Directory:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] has rejected an article about you or your enterprise as being "non-notable".  With '''MyWikiBiz''', you create a beautiful, reader-friendly page that will get picked up by Google, Yahoo!, and MSN Search engines.

'''Welcome''' to the '''MyWikiBiz''' directory!

== Why publish your information on MyWikiBiz? ==
+
{{Blink|text='''<font color="red">PLEASE READ...</font color="red">}}
   −
There are many reasons. Take your pick:
+
MyWikiBiz has served the public as an openly-edited wiki since January 2008, facilitating over ''8 million page views''. Some years ago, we learned that being '''too''' open to the public meant that spammers had a field day. Nowadays, our site frustrates spammers, because while the content is FREE for anyone to read, we ask users who want to edit these pages to first make a small, '''one-time payment of USD $5''' to [[Help:Registration|open a User account]]. When users are required pay for the privilege of editing and publishing, they pay attention to our guidelines.
   −
* Unlike traditional encyclopedias, you may protect your '''[[advocate point-of-view]]'''.  Which means you can '''''say what you want''''' about yourself or your business, without fear of someone else coming along and messing up your work.   
+
This fosters a better ratio of high-quality personal, business, academic, and directory content on MyWikiBiz.   
   −
* You earn money here.  Author a really popular page, embed your own '''[[Help:Monetizing_MyWikiBiz/Google_AdSense|Google AdSense]]''' ads on it, and you keep 100% of the revenues generated from that page's advertising... for the rest of your life.
+
* The 50 most-active, legitimate User accounts on site since 2008 are grandfathered in as free accounts with full edit rights.  
   −
* Sell your products and services here.  If you're an [[Directory:Schiepan|'''artist''']], sell your paintings.  If you're an [[Directory:Andrew_Lande|'''author''']], sell your books.  If you're an [[Directory:Garreth_Westwood|'''attorney''']], proffer your services.  (Those are just a few "'''a'''" occupations -- imagine what's possible with "'''b'''" through "'''z'''"!)
+
Please enjoy what MyWikiBiz has to offer!
 
  −
* Showcase maps, videos, and games on your pages.  You can't do that on Wikipedia!
  −
 
  −
Are you more interested in the community-edited dynamic of an encyclopedia like Wikipedia?  No problem.  Any topic that is not about a legal entity can be traditionally edited by multiple users in the [[Help:Main Space|Main]] pages of '''MyWikiBiz'''.
