Launched just one year ago, WomenEntrepreneur.com has fast become the central hub for women business owners who want to meet, share and grow. The website celebrates its first anniversary with 238% growth in unique monthly visitors — from just 140,000 in November 2007 to 473,000 in April 2008.

Designed by the experts behind Entrepreneur magazine and Entrepreneur.com, the inception of WomenEntrepreneur.com in 2007 was the latest effort by Entrepreneur Media to support the dynamic — and growing — women’s business community. The Center for Women’s Business Research still shows women-owned businesses are growing at nearly twice the rate of all businesses.

“We’ve been the ultimate name in entrepreneurship for 31 years now, and over the years we’ve catered to this segment in the magazine, through events and on Entrepreneur.com,” says Dave Pomije, VP of site development at Entrepreneur. “Eventually, we felt a standalone site was in order. The tremendous response we’ve gotten in such a short time from women around the country proves we were right on target.”

WomenEntrepreneur.com was the first website launched solely for the women’s business community by a media company. Others are just now jumping on the bandwagon by adding networks and sections for this audience, having caught on to its importance and vitality.

Today, the standalone website remains the only one of its kind, addressing the challenges and opportunities women face when starting and growing their own businesses. Expert entrepreneurs cover every inch of business growth with articles, columns, blogs, news, resources and success stories. Women are also able to tap into a community of peers to gain and share ideas and advice.
