| Several years ago, I invited
someone to write an article for Wifcon.com's Analysis page
(Its under the Reading section in the right column). The
individual said he was going to submit an article to a "professional"
journal, instead. I thought that was great, if he didn't want
anyone to read it. If you are an author of
professional articles on federal contracting, or, if you wish to write a
professional article, submit it to Wifcon.com. If you want
publicity for yourself, and/or, if you want free advertisement for
yourself and/or organization, publish it at Wifcon.com. Here is why
you should.
The table below shows the Top 10 articles for
2010 that are stored on Wifcon.com's server.1

Average downloads per day was calculated by dividing the total
downloads, dividing by 360, and rounding to the lowest whole number. |
The table above presents some impressive numbers
but a little more information stresses the point. For example,
during 2010, the top article was downloaded 13,523 times. On
average, that is about 1,126 times a month or about 37 times a day.
Remember, that is just for 1 year. Some articles have been on
Wifcon.com for years.
Let's take another example--my article on the
Fixed-Price Incentive Firm Target contract. That was downloaded
7,389 times during 2010. However, it was published to the site in
2003--over 4 years ago. That is over 4 years of being seen!
So, ask yourself this. Do you want your
article to be under that stack of aging, yellow, paper in the corner or do you want
people to see it at Wifcon.com?
