Last month, we posted a quick post on the opening of a brand new social network for website owners. This new social network, named “What’s This Web Thing” (WTWT) is quickly gaining acceptance among website owners from around the world.

Its free to join.

This new network is all about website and blog owners helping other website/blog owners. They are just starting out and have a handful of members as of this writing. But the number of registered members is rapidly increasing.

In addition, the folks at WTWT want hear from more website and blog owners. They want us to talk to them and make suggestions about the network. So now we as website owners have a great opportunity to state what we would like to see on a social site.

“We want to find a way for this site to help website and blog owners“, says Herb Stalk, the network’s founder.

While the membership has a good mix of web professionals with their own website and experience, Herb is still looking for more diversity. “We are looking for ALL types of sites, from blogs to shopping sites to outdoor sites to finance … everything.”

The most valuable part of this particular Social Network is it’s members and what they have to offer. I know from personal experience that getting started with an online business is very difficult. The online world is a very different environment from which to operate a business.

Everyone of us, at some time, has been in a position where we needed advice or help. And usually, we turn to someone who has some higher level of experience for advice. Well, this network is perfect for website and blog owners from all levels of experience.

If you are just starting out, there are load of professionals that are willing to help you with your problem. If you are more experienced, this network is a chance for you to share your experience with the rest of us.

What’s Available on WTWT
