Having acquired the business database once hosted at Centiare.com, MyWikiBiz announces a monumental goal -- that the fledgling site will eventually become a 265-million-page user-generated directory.  Established in Pennsylvania in 2006, MyWikiBiz launched a controversial service that authored articles for Wikipedia in exchange for modest payment.  The founder of MyWikiBiz rocketed to national exposure with favorable press coverage in the Washington Post, USA Today, Forbes, and a cable television appearance.  Wikipedia, though, rejected MyWikiBiz.

So, MyWikiBiz dusted off and created a new Internet home at MyWikiBiz.com for all those people, companies, and organizations that Wikipedia rejects as "non-notable".

The United States Census counts nearly 239,000,000 Americans over the age of 15.  The Office of Advocacy at the Small Business Administration says there are 24,700,000 businesses (including sole proprietorships) in this country.  Finally, LearningToGive.org says there are 1,200,000 non-profit, public-serving orgs (churches, community service providers, etc.) and 400,000 non-profit, member-serving orgs (fraternal and professional associations, trade unions, political committees, etc.) in America.
