A billion pages and counting…
February 2, 2008
We just announced our second round of financing along with some updated stats. MocoSpace’s traffic is now at 1 billion page views per month driven by over 2 million members. It’s a great milestone for us, and a tribute to the hardwork of Moco’s team to deliver on our mission to offer our members the best place to find friends, have fun, and stay connected on their mobile phones…for free.
Since founding the company at the end of 2005, Jamie and I have believed that the mobile Internet, like its PC counterpart, should be free and ad supported. Today, the tremendous community we have at MocoSpace reinforces our belief, and demonstrates the untapped power of the mobile Internet.
Some people I speak with question the potential, and in some cases even the existence, of the mobile Internet. Others believe that the only sites that will enjoy any significant traffic and success are websites with mobile extensions. I believe that there millions of people in North America that don’t sit in front of a computer all day, don’t have broadband access at home, but want and deserve a great way to find friends, have fun, and stay connected.
In 2008, I believe MocoSpace will eliminate any doubts about the potential of the mobile Internet.
