eDoorways Corporation is the owner of a unique website that will incorporate the features of a social networking site, a search engine, a directory, a professional network, an encyclopedia and even a consumer rating services. The site is not meant to duplicate other existing websites like eBay, MySpace, Wikipedia or Google, but to improve upon all of these services and bring them together in one easy-to-use marketplace. However, by providing similar services to all of these websites, eDoorways will have to compete either directly or indirectly with several well known giants of the World Wide Web.
Despite lacking in size and cash flow compared to its competitors, eDoorways plans to offer a superior product compared to websites such as CraigsList.com, YellowPages.com, Wikipedia, LinkedIn, Google, MySpace, eBay, About.com and Ask.com. CraigsList receives over 4 billion page views per month and is designed for classified ads and personals. This is not the same intent of eDoorways, which will help small businesses to create new customer leads and provide consumers with valuable information that they cannot find in an advertisement.
YellowPages.com is an excellent tool when in need of a phone number or the address of a business, but it cannot provide the third-party independent recommendations and ratings that eDoorways will provide, in addition to the information contained on YellowPages.com. LinkedIn is an online social network for experienced professionals, but it is limited to professionals only. eDoorways combines the professionals with businesses and services to make one large online community that helps to locate real world professionals in the user’s immediate location.
Finally, eDoorways has a competitive advantage over Ask.com and About.com because, not only does it often answer users questions, but can also point them in the direction of local experts and professionals that can also fix the problem or better address the question. Unlike eBay, eDoorways can sell services instead of strictly products, which make it a much more valuable tool for some sellers of intangible services. eDoorways is truly a hybrid of many of the best websites out there for consumers and businesses, and should be highly competitive on the open market.
