There is still a vast amount of valuable information that is fragmented and untapped. I’ve built CompetitionInfo.com to provide information about merit-based opportunities for a global audience. In a little over 3 months since its inception, CompetitionInfo.com has received over 1000 unique page views from users in over 70 countries. Revenue will be generated from ads and sponsored competition placements.
