Eating the childrens lunch!

11/11/2009 - 12:57 / Posted by admin

There is somthing that I find both annoying and illogical at the same time in Tunisia the large number empty property and offices. I have spoken to many businessmen and especially the younger ones agree that something must be done ASAP.

My rant begins :-(

I a functioning market you have the law of supply and demand ie your in competition with other small business for a location if there are many of you the price can go up if less interest then the price goes down. What I have found in Tunisia (especially the good locations) there is simply a dysfunctional market that is harming commerce, town centres and the young/new business and those wishing to expand.

Problem One: Contract terms

Alexa Revisited

11/02/2009 - 10:54 / Posted by admin

Great to see we are now on the "Alexa list of most popular websites: Tunisia"

And its also great to see that this moths stats come with some comment about Alexa being a valid statistical tool of analysis.

As I previously discussed Alexa has been long discredited as an accurate measurement tool and gave the evidence of are own stats where we where shown that the majourity of our traffic comes from Pakistan but alas we do not have one single forum member from there and out stats show that as you would expect the mjourity of our visitors are form the UK.

Right lets have some fun and see if we can improve this rank in time for the next ranking at the end of November!

10/28/2009 - 11:30 / Posted by admin

Yes thats right apparently the new website for Tunisia (long overdue) which is a mixture of public and private investment Tunizie.com?? is apparently going to cost 15,000,000 dollars to build over 5 years. I now understand why nobody was interested in helping me (for free lol).

The project budget is reported by webmanagercenter.com

Why do the Tunisian news love Alexa?

10/05/2009 - 12:22 / Posted by admin

I was doing my usual look of the Tunisian media the other week when I found a story on the popular website www.Businessnews.com.tn. I like this site since it usually give it straight and if something in the business are looks out of kilter it usually has a good story about it.

Getting Ready for Ramadan

Being lazy is both the thing I love most about living in Tunisia (this is me talking about myself!) . As I type this I have just been disturbed by the wife who Dracula like has risen at 1pm and has started firing her orders at me whilst she stays firmly attached to the sofa. Its like a competition to see who can do the least with my wife and she is the grand master of Lazy Kung Fu her weapon of choice the mobile phone.

Wives in Tunisia (maybe just mine) love mobile phones

God Bless the Algerians

Having just returned from a quick visit to sousse my anecdotal evidence is that the Algerians are very much saving the day.
