Interesting Article On The Business Side Of AllHipHop
AllHipHop.com was attracting five million visitors a month and was on track to hit about $2 million in revenue in 2006. That was four times what it had earned the previous year but not enough to absorb an extra $150,000 in unexpected expenses. Watkins mingled with the crowd and tried to put on a good face. To outsiders, the company appeared to be pulling off a spectacular event, with big-name rappers performing and thousands of fans attending concerts and art shows throughout the week. But Watkins worried that AllHipHop.com was on the verge of collapse.
Gives a lot of up and coming entrepreneurs things to think about. Having traffic doesn’t mean your making money, you need to have a plan on how to capitalize from it. Also if your trying to make money, you must also make sure you keeping track of every penny your spending and earning.

interestingly enough I remember going to 2 events during Allhiphop.com week 2006. I recall them giving away the tickets for the concert which I found surprising. No idea they were undergoing that financial situation.

hey they had good ideas, but they shouldve affiliated themselves with the hottest radio, music tours and search engines instead though. I know allot of hiphop sites that went over board and i dont see em around no more.
