People make a site successful

The backbone of any web community is the individuals that contribute to and visit the site. e-Optimization.com will be a gathering place for people with different backgrounds and needs to make connections and learn information.

For example, a common concern of many optimization experts today - OR professionals, CP-savvy computer scientists and others - is the challenge for their customers to understand the technology well enough to be able to supply the right data for model development. This new web community can help.

As news of the high-ROI potential of optimization technology continues to expand in the business world, companies will be seeking information as well as solutions. e-Optimization.com can help by providing background data, case studies, company and individual listings, and even an RFI/RFP service so that visitors can contact professionals.

Why focus on non-experts?

The most unusual aspect of e-Optimization.com compared to existing web resources is its inclusion of people with little or no knowledge of the technology who want to learn more. The belief is that such visitors to the site are precisely the best audience to reach and inform. They could be people who might fund research. Or corporate employees seeking to purchase products and services. Or just individuals who, once educated via the site, would tell others about the many advantages the technology delivers.

Awareness campaign

A key factor in the success of optimization.com is making people aware of the site and interested in visiting and participating. For that reason, the site will be marketed in order to increase visibility among key influencers such as the news media, industry analysts and other experts. In addition, email awareness campaigns will take place, along with other activities like sponsorships of events. Ultimately, optimization.com is intended as the place on the web to come for anything related to optimization.
