Brilliant Izea ...

This is the age of knowing the right thing at the right time.
I received the following communication announcing PPC would be known as izea henceforth ... here is a copy of the email received

I am very excited to present our new corporate name and identity, IZEA, Inc.Going forward our company will be known as IZEA, with PayPerPost as its flagship product and other properties including Blogger’s Choice Awards, RockStartup, Zookoda and BlogInSpace under the IZEA corporate umbrella. These changes are the natural result of our phenomenal growth as a company and the continued success our user community is having with our social marketing tools and strategies.This new corporate framework will enable us to further execute on our established mission statement: To empower everyone to value and exchange content, creativity and influence. We will be adding additional services over the coming year and I feel strongly that the IZEA brand will allow us to present all our solutions in a more complete and understandable way to our clients, users, investors and the press.I know many of you have come to love the PayPerPost name. We love it, too. The company started a new era for bloggers and advertisers and will continue on as the brand name for the world’s largest consumer generated advertising network.I look forward to seeing you all at PostieCon on November 10 in Las Vegas, when IZEA takes the next step forward with the release of our next generation platform, codenamed Argus. Argus will deliver an unparalleled collection of social marketing tools and features you will have to see to believe. The product has its own brand name that we are eager to share with everyone. The name and logo are awesome, so stay tuned! Again, thanks to all of you for your continued support.
All the best,
Ted Murphy




So what is the big deal about knowing the right thing at the right time? Read more...
I was wondering why the domain izea.in was registered when I got the alert for new domain being registered on my domain registration and web hosting site. So I logged in to check my emails and find out who did what and why. That is when I read this announcement of PPC rebranding itself as IZEA Inc. What was brilliant about this whole thing is that this new domain izea.in was registered within 5 minutes of the PPC to IZEA Inc announcement on the web.

So would you agree, that while izea.com would become popular in the search engines world over, izea.in would continue to get some peripheral limelight as well, increasing its worth, and who knows the domain would get traded after 6 months at an excellent premium.

And for me a lesson to read announcements on time!!! This was a brilliant izea by proud owner of izea.in who siezed the opportunity on time. I hope some other company which is just as popular as PPC is planning to rebrand and revamp their names, and structure, and give me an opportunity to register a domain....

That would be another brilliant izea...

So long,
Good Sports
