Financial Crisis, The Four Most Vulnerable Websites In China

An American blogger summed up several Web 2 websites most likely to be closed down by the financial crisis.

However, the companies involved in this article do not occupy an important position in China, so they do not attract much attention from entrepreneurs.

In the face of the global economic downturn, many VC agencies have warned the companies they invested in preparing for the winter.

Even the heavyweight companies such as HUAWEI, Alibaba and other founders have made public the declaration of winter.

The cold winter is a process of survival of the fittest. Many China Internet Corporation, which now seem to have a certain popularity, may not be able to endure the arrival of capital in spring.

In this case, Wabei.COM, an entrepreneur observation group, evaluated the four most vulnerable websites after studying the Internet segmentation industry.

1, video websites, video websites are inherently operating costs high, policy risks are high, there is a time bomb - copyright.

Half of the financing is spent on servers and bandwidth. The marginal cost of video websites is very high. Unlike most Internet services, the average cost is decreasing rapidly with the increase of users.

In terms of capital, the top three strong Youku, potatoes and cool 6 have received tens of millions of dollars in financing.

In terms of policy, no one can know how to release the subsequent video licences, and we should always be vigilant against the content uploaded by users.

In addition, to avoid copyright litigation, it is necessary to purchase genuine source of content, which is unbearable for many video sites.

The position of the top three players in the 2 social networking sites of SNS and SNS social networking sites has basically been settled, and the top three schools, netting, 51.COM and Kaixin have also built up barriers to capital.

Softbank invested $384 million in 1000 oak interaction, the giant invested $51 million in 51.COM, and the first round of northern lights investment network has millions of dollars.

With the strengthening of SNS functions such as Tencent, Sina, Sohu and NetEase, the market space and time for the independent SNS functional website, such as the domestic website, the occupying network, the student network, the 360 circle, Facekoo and so on, are not much.

Many of the research institutions, including Liu Jianguo, President of AI Bang network, like to spend 3 years in search of life, have to wait 3 years for the spring of life search.

But how many companies can survive these three years?

In the early days, the so-called "Cool News", known as China's largest life search engine, has also been pformed into tourism search. Impatient VC also hired professional managers to take over the main work of the entrepreneurial team.

After passing through the road, cars, real estate, catering, jobs, movies and so on, which seem to have bright prospects, have been removed from the home page of cool news.

And AI gang has just begun to explore comprehensive life search.

The public information on capital is that cool news has invested $12 million, and AI Bang has already raised $4 million 800 thousand.

There are no more profitable businesses in the Internet industry than online games, but it is not difficult to conceal the existence of high risks in the online games industry, 4.

In the 05 and 06 years of the first wave of online games, many people have forgotten how many games have not yet been officially operated, and the company has already closed down. The cost of promotion has not been settled yet.

The development cycle of web games is short, the cost is low, and revenue is fast.

Giving people a sense of entry threshold is not high, leading to a large number of entrepreneurs.

With the deep involvement of large online game companies and venture capital, the threshold will be higher and higher, and many speculators will stumble on the threshold.
