Plenty Of Small Fry Sites Getting Attention

from the but-is-that-a-good-thing dept

People have been saying that the internet is now dominated by just a few major media players - but, as the Washington Post points out, there are plenty of new "small fry" websites that are getting tons of visitors, according to the latest studies. Of course, based on the ones the article chooses to portray, I'm not so sure I'm encouraged. A lot of them seem to be about get-rich-quick scams or diret marketing (spam) sites. Either way, the fact is, even if they don't draw large audiences, there are millions of niche sites out there that someone appreciates - and that's all that really matters.
