  • Owner

    Derebote Networks

    (Internet industry)

    January 2000April 2008 (8 years 4 months)

    Derebote is a startup I started when I was 14 years old. It all began as a hobbie, in that time I had no real clue on how to make a website, where to host it, between many other things I didnt know.

    The site is an entertainment portal in spanish, with sections like News, Humour, Models, Horoscope, Lifestyle. I personally consider it was a successful failure. Why I say this? First of all the site did not gave revenue until three years later when, I decided to seriously dedicate my time to make it profitable. To do so I had the great pleasure to associate with a great friend of mine, Renzo Minicelli and together we made interesting Internet deals. We sold advertising, sold ebooks, promoted affiliate programs, between many other things.

    The reason why I consider it a successful failure is because although it was profitable and continues to be so, we´ve never really focused in important issues just like web design, usability, valuable content and astonishing web service. Also it could be considered a failure if we take into account all the opportunities we did not take in that time.

    Even though it has part of a failure I consider it has a great part of success. It was a great experience for both of us, and help us both grow. Personally it taught me a myriad of things related to business, Internet, marketing, entrepreneurship and even about professional relationships.

    Nowadays the website is really out of date and is 1.0. It is a question of time to see some day a complete renovation of the website with a new business model.
