Introducing Triond

One of Giza’s portfolio companies has finally emerged from stealth mode. As such, we have the pleasure of introducing everyone to Triond.

What is Triond you ask? Triond is a publishing platform that aims to solve the main problems of most content creators on the Web: audience and monetization.

And it’s a major problem. A lot of people maintain blogs. If you happen to be Scoble then you have developed a large following over the years. And if you're a guy like Shoemoney you've also learned how to squeeze a couple of bucks out of your online presence.

However, for the rest of the millions of mere mortals who produce content online, both of these are daunting problems. Most people don’t know how to go about attracting readership much beyond family and friends. The vast majority don’t know how to monetize their content at all, and even the relatively sophisticated ones who have figured out how to put AdWords on their site generally have no idea about SEO and other ways of raising their CPM.

In fact, most content creators just want to focus on what they do best – be it write, take photographs, make videos, or whatever – and not have to bother with the hassles of trying to create their own successful blog, dealing with advertising, and constantly feeling the pressure to create regular updates.

Which is where Triond comes in.

Triond is an end-to-end publishing service consisting of a centralized publishing platform (located at Triond.com) and a content network of nearly 30 targeted destination sites. The sites range from travel to business to computers to poetry and creative writing. Users upload their content to Triond, which publishes it on the most appropriate site in the network. The content sites generate much higher traffic than most beginner blogs could hope to get, and they are fully and effectively monetized.

And here’s the best part: Triond shares the revenues that the content generates 50/50 with the content creators.

In short, Triond provides content creators with a clear value proposition: You focus on creating content, we'll handle the rest, and you earn what your content is really worth.

The service has been running in stealth mode for the last 18 months or so, slowly building up a dedicated and passionate user base. The Triond site provides each creator with a portfolio for his/her stuff as well as a community for content creators to provide each other with feedback and support.

Triond is operated by Stanza Ltd, which recently graduated from Giza’s Ofek Program to become a full portfolio company. Stanza was founded by Shahar Solomianik, Oren Solomianik, and Udi Oz, a great group of entrepreneurs with a strong understanding of the mechanism of Web publishing.

concept is ok, i doubt it will be popular online. Seems too much of a 'headache' for the mere mortal as you refer.

p.s. The HP is awful and the interface needs great improvement

I've been writing for Triond for about 2 years & it's awesome. Anything worth anything takes time, hard work and perseverence to produce successful results.

Blessings.
