Let me begin by apologizing for the huge lack of updates over recent weeks this is mainly due to a number of setbacks; we have simply had nothing to write about although we are now running like a well oiled machine and are both very excited about the next couple of weeks as we now have several projects which are progressing very nicely.
We are currently getting ready to launch two projects this week so expect to see some project and new blog post over the next couple of days

So, you’ve just completed your startup website. What do you do next? There are no right and wrongs, these are just simply tips.

Before you do anything, you should check the following:

1. Is your design friendly? People will click that big red X if it isn’t. (A big turn off is advertisements, limit to the number of ads, if any at all.)
2. Is your startup Cross Browser Compatible?
3. Are there any bugs in the startup (Get a couple of friends to test it out)
4. Are you different? What makes you different? (In the app world, that is)

Ok, so now you’ve ticked all the above boxes. Could your startup do with a twitter? Of course! Twitter is used by everyone now, therefore creating a twitter for your start it a fantastic way to generate more traffic and to get feedback/suggestions for your startup.

So you’ve now got a twitter account for your startup, next is submitting to some sites. You can submit to Startup Websites and to some CSS Galleries. Here’s a list below which you should checkout when submitting your startup.

• Digg
• Stumble Upon
• Life Hacker
• Mashable
• Feed My App
• Killer Startups
• Scommerce
• Rev 2
• CSS Gallery List

Tell all your friends about it, all of your friends. Don’t spam though. Spam is retarded.

Finally, put it in all your forum signatures.

Me and Josh today decided to announce an idea we have come up with. We are currently looking to invest in any small to medium sized projects that we believe to be a very good idea. We are considering both short and long term projects. Your percentage of the total revenue would be finalized according to how much the project would cost along with our projections on how much of a return could be made

A little run down on how it would work

1. You submit your description of your website along with projections of amount of revenue and visitors it will receive over a 1,3,6 and 12 month basis to ideas@startedwith100.com (attached text document is preferred)
2. We analyse your idea and reply to confirm our interest in the project
3. The stake and investment are agreed and then a contract written up and is signed by both parties to confirm the stakes in the project
4. We handle the development, launching and marketing of the project
5. You receive your share of the profits

Once again if you feel you have an idea we may be interested in feel free to email us at ideas@startedwith100.com and me or Josh will get back to you as soon as possible
