This is part of what we are saying. Coolapostle asked how many Nigerian websites are really making money. look at the website of a company like Glo. Out of date information. And that is what most Nigerian websites are like. The right focus is not there.
Want to make money with your site? One of the essentials is that your site must be up-to-date in every way.
Sorry, this is a little off-topic, but it just gets me peeved! ![]()

You not far off the mark. The main point is that, most of them are simply never updated. One should be able to refer to websites of any of the telcom companies, anytime, anyday, for useful information but alas, the same old information you'd seen months ago. The same applies to MTN and other huge corparations/institutions like NTA, Nigeria Police. Do you know for how long the Nigeria Police website still had Tafa Balogun as Inspector General? lol.
This is why forums like MobileNigeria.com is here to fill the gap, providing useful and up-to-date information and tips for Nigerian mobile phone subscribers.
Kudos to the Administrator for the hard work and commitment.
So long... ![]()

I am a Glo user and it disturbs me that many of my friends a swtiching over to MTN because Glo connection is always very poor or unavailable. Using my glo card to call friends using other network is not fun. Most often my calls a cut short becuase of network failure.
worse off, when my validity days are over, it becomes very difficult getting calls. If it does come in, it must go off within seconds. Please do something, I like glo and don't want to be forced out of the glo family.
thanks
