=== Centiare alliance and takeover ===
In late October 2006, the owner of [[Directory:Centiare|Centiare.com]] reached out to Kohs to form a partnership that resulted in Kohs promoting and marketing the alternative wiki directory at Centiare.  This effort gained strength through early 2007, but ultimately began to fade.  When Centiare's owner opted to pull the plug on the site, Kohs negotiated a transfer of the entire contents of Centiare.com to MyWikiBiz.com.  Thus, MyWikiBiz has undergone a substantial re-branding and re-purpose from its original mission.

MyWikiBiz has achieved substantial gains in registered users, original articles, and visitor traffic since its re-launch in January 2008.  While site traffic is predominantly U.S.-based, there is a global reach, especially into Europe and East Asia.

As with any new website, growing traffic to the site depends on search engine relevance, inbound links from other authoritative sites, and word-of-mouth. Thus far, it is clear that MyWikiBiz is appealing to more and more visitors over time. [[Image:MWB traffic trend 2008.jpg|left|thumb|175px|Visitor traffic is on a steady increase]]
