Interviewing Women Webmasters

Discussion in 'General Chat' started by jhmattern, May 1, 2007.

    I couldn't think of a more specific place to post this, but I recently launched two tech-oriented blogs mostly targeting women, and I'm also soon going to be launching a community targeting women webmasters.

    I'd like to start doing short interviews with women webmasters and female bloggers (or female online business owners). If you're interested, please email me (I'll respond quicker that way than via PM), and I'll set something up. :)

    Thanks. :) For some reason I went on a female-oriented site kick recently... four or five of them total coming out. lol I just don't see them featured very much, which is a shame. On the same blog, I'll soon also be accepting nominations for the best women webmasters for a year-end ranking. I'll be posting more about that any day now, once I make a final decision on how I want to take the nominations and votes.

    Anyway, I'll put together some questions and get in touch with you soon. :) Can you let me know your site(s) first though, so I can base questions off of your specialty / niche? Thanks. :)

    lol Females only. She-male webmasters can start their own niche site. ;)

    w3bmaster, there you go... maybe I'll have to create a webmaster dating service... or a man of the month feature to get some eye candy on the site and attract more women readers. ;) j/k

    Explain.... do you want to know about a site that's co-owned by a woman? In that case, yes, co-founders/webmasters are fine. :)

    8everything, IndieKool looks familiar. By any chance do you remember if you did a set of banners for me a few weeks back? If so, PM me your rates and basic services (psds? css? wordpress?) and rates. I think you're the one I wanted to track down (but couldn't remember who he heck did the banners) for a project coming up in the foreseeable future. :)

    I'll likely just ask anywhere from 5-10 short questions via email, and your responses, a photo if you'd like one included, and links to up to 10 sites so people can see what kind of sites you're involved with. If you're up for it, I'll PM you some questions tomorrow. Just let me know if the sites in your sig are yours, so I can look at some examples when putting together questions. :)

    Any other gals out there in the Web game interested in being interviewed? :) I'll have the first posted in a few days when I receive responses. I just want to give the DP ladies first crack before I start promoting it heavily elsewhere (press releases, WAHM forums, business forums, etc.). :)
