ByWEST AFRICA’S NUMBER ONE WEB HOSTING EXECUTIVE SPEAKS OUT
ABOUT INTERNET ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN AFRICA
Oluniyi David Ajao reveals the secrets to his steady climb to industry leadership in web hosting,
blogging, and African technology entrepreneurship.
NaijasMostIncredible.com was able to catch up with one of
Nigeria’s leading technology enthusiasts, as he approached his five-year anniversary of blogging on
DavidAjao.com.
A Nigerian thought-leader, currently living in Ghana, and traveling regularly to other parts of Africa, Niyi brings a unique perspective to every conversation.
This interview put to bed some of the myths about blogging, and earning a living on the Internet.
It also laid bare some of the challenges in building a technology-based business in Africa today -- And how
creative entrepreneurs are getting around these challenges.
This isn’t a trivial problem at all. When you combine the high level of education with high unemployment, you have a huge number of young people who are looking for alternate ways to jumpstart their professional careers.
Many are turning to blogging, and other ventures that leverage the Internet. (And, we must add, mobile technology.)
Niyi Ajao is way ahead of the curve, though. He founded Web4Africa in 2002, on a shoestring budget, but has since grown it into an enviable perch atop the web hosting industry in Africa.
In this interview, Mr. Ajao reveals:
- How to take on the unique challenges of growing an Internet business in Africa.
- The secret competitive advantage easily available to every business in Africa…
but ignored by most entrepreneurs. - How to become a market leader based off of word-of-mouth advertising.
- Why “get-rich-quick” thinking is what destroys most new bloggers’ efforts.
- The one-two combination of skills that make one perfect for blogging success.
- How to pick your blogging niche.
- The best ways to monetize your blog with Google AdSense.
- How to make money from your blog without adding a single line of code – Adsense or
otherwise.
This thirty minute audio interview provides detailed insight into what it takes to become a professional blogger.
It also delves into the challenges and triumphs of building an Internet business in Africa.
