We create industry related breaking news blogs designed to drive "targeted" traffic and increase brand/product and service awareness.

Any vertical, any niche, any subject and we can build it for you. See the "Breaking News Site" we built for the NBA's Miami Heat. NBANewsHeat.com
It is built-around Miami Heat related keywords (Lebron James, Dywane Wade, Chris Bosh, etc.) and our proprietary platform sends out newsbots to search for breaking news stories on keywords they're trained to seek. Once the breaking news story is found, it sends it to our server, which transforms it into a Post containing the title, a photo, author credit, 25 word blurb and a direct link to the original content provider.

To get details, go to Breaking News = Traffic and learn how an industry related breaking news website can be a "targeted" traffic magnet.

Square to close $200m funding round

Square is on the verge of closing a $200 million funding round that would value the dongle and app-based mobile card reader startup at $3.25 billion, according to the New York Times.
The round will be led by Suhail Rizvi from private equity firm Rizvi Traverse Management, which has previously invested in Square chief Jack Dorsey's other company, Twitter, says the Times, citing sources.
The new money suggests that Square has doubled its value since raising $100 million in a round valuing it at around $1.6 billion a year ago but the firm had been seeking investment at the $4 billion mark, says the Times.
