Have you heard the name of About.com? The site was established in 1997-98. Then there was today's Google. In those days, Internet users were looking for useful information on sites like About, Yahoo, etc. In this Google age you may not have noticed the existence of About.com. Of course it's not your fault at all. Where Neil Vogel, the CEO of About.com, is not looking at About.com himself!
Today's web does not have the same popularity as before. The site has content, but they are not getting the number of visitors that the CEO of About.com is expecting. Besides, he is not thinking about About.com to keep an eye on other businesses. And that's why the farewell bell of the once popular site About.com has rung.
Neil Vogel, CEO of About.com, said in a recent newspaper interview that there is only one way to keep Abbott.com (www.about.com) from sinking completely, and that is to shut it down.
Neil Vogel said he no longer thinks about About.com. About.com will be shut down so that it does not lose its popularity. After a few days, About.com will be closed on May 2. After removing some of the content of the site, 5-6 niche-sites will be opened, but this is the end of About.com.
