Also, the name ValueWiki could be changed. I'll tell you why I think that...the minute an ignorant person who is a user, not a programmer, is so relieved to have found your site at all, after maybe hundreds of advertisements in the corner of their eye, the last thing that I would want to do, is get lost in what might be somebody else trying to sell me something....Value - indicates level of importance, expense, estimates of all kinds. I want maybe a forum, rather than a blog. Maybe even the web-hosting, which is something I only wanted to do when I was on line, and be able to interact with my visitors, like a chat works with Google. Anyhooo, drop me a line. Teach me something!!!

Converting this traffic into users is the puzzle... Maybe provacative message board posts is the key! Dave, I hear you on this. I just worry that VW could devolve into the chaos of message boards if everyone can post their opinions on the article page. Wikipedia wouldn't have the credibility it does if anyone could post opinions about each topic on the article pages. I think a happy solution would be if users write their opinions on subpages, and link from the article page. That is, AAPL/Dave's_Analysis, AAPL/Khartand's_Analysis, etc. Or on their user pages, Jonathan_Stokes/AAPL_Analysis, Khartand/AAPL_Analysis etc. Maybe try it out? We'll see if it catches on. Davis, Yep, critical mass is the name of the game....tell a friend about VW! Yes, I have heard from David Jackson at Seeking Alpha. My general impression is that many finance bloggers are aware of the blog but not ValueWiki. Hopefully some more bloggers (like Khartand did) will begin to cover the site, and help explain the mission to their readers. Thanks for the insight everyone, Jon Khartand,

I like the comment about you getting called an idiot. It's sad, but it's true. No matter what you say, at least one anonymous person will find it controversial. Personally, I'd rather have bloggers commenting, then regular readers. It means that you have influencers reading your stuff regularly. Bloggers may be self motivated, but I've also found that there is a different connection between bloggers, then between a blogger and readers. I actually found the blog after discovering ValueWiki. I think ValueWiki is a great resource. If you can gain critical mass, I think it could end up being a great resource for financial bloggers. Have you considered contacting sites like Seeking Alpha, that are on the top 100 list and seeing if you could work out some kind of a mutually beneficial partnership? It would be neat to see even more people contribute information on the site. The controversy might sell, but I'd rather see good well thought out posts, even if it doesn't generate the same link love. Some interesting insights.
