The Evolution of Blogtrepreneur

Entrepreneurship
Almost three years ago in February 2006, Blogtrepreneur.com was born as a way for a young UK student named Adnan to share his ongoing exploration in blogging and business. Since that time the site has grown in readership and popularity thanks to his passion for online entrepreneurship, and his dedication to building Blogtrepreneur.com into a powerful resource for other businesses, online and off.
This month, we bid a fond farewell to Adnan and thank him for the strong foundation he laid at Blogtrepreneur.com. As he moves on to bigger and better things, he will always be a part of the ongoing success of this website. The thousands of readers who have benefited from his hard work and commitment to online business will forever be grateful for his work here. If this blog is any indication of his talent, his future endeavors are surely to be a great success. Adnan will definitely be keeping in touch still through blogtrepreneur.com and will surely be commenting on posts too!
At this time I’d like to introduce myself and my brother as the new bloggers/owners of Blogtrepreneur.com. We recently acquired Blogtrepreneur.com and have some exciting plans for the growth of Blogtrepreneur.com! Stay tuned for the new blog design that will go live within 2 weeks!
Matthew and I are the founders of YoungEntrepreneur.com. We consider ourselves ’serial entrepreneurs’ with over twenty years of combined experience in the areas of marketing, business development, entrepreneurial emergence, entrepreneurial strategy management, business growth techniques, innovation, and new venture creation; and we are thrilled to pick up Adnan’s torch so that we can share our passion for business with you.
The two of us have pioneered an exciting method for improving the profitability of under-performing businesses using a unique ‘bottom line’ program. On our other websites, we offer specific instruction on management and finance concepts for struggling small businesses. Our efforts are based on both extensive research, and hands-on experience with our own successful businesses.
We hope that you will continue to benefit from and participate here at Blogtrepreneur.com. The two of us are committed to bringing you regular, topical posts that can be of practical use to you in your blogging and general business operations. We also plan to increase the number of posts and provide you with an inside look into some of the “hard to get” secrets that we have used in all of our business ventures, which will be available exclusively on Blogtrepreneur.com to include in-depth marketing, SEO strategies, advertising, public relations, small business research, affiliate strategy management, and social media to name a few.
As regular readers and participants in the dialogue at Blogtrepreneur.com, you are a valued part of a community that encourages sharing information and experience which is a powerful component to business growth and success.
Matthew and I invite you to register at YoungEntrepreneur.com and participate in the thousands of ongoing discussions in the forums. We also welcome your comments and feedback on our blog posts here at Blogtrepreneur.com and look forward to reading what other entrepreneurs have to say. Please email us any time if you feel there is a topic of specific interest that you would like to see covered. Stay tuned for some great contests and prize giveaways!
We wish you the best as you pursue your dream of building a successful business, and we look forward to being one of your regular online destinations. Thank you for your continued support!
Once again, good luck Adnan - best of luck and thank you for all your hard work!

Adam - Thankyou so much for the kind words. I know we were in discussions for a long time about the possibility of us working together, but I’m glad we finally managed to make this a reality - I know Blogtrepreneur.com and our fans will be a lot better off with you and your brother working behind the scenes.
I wish you guys also good luck, but as you know I’m going to be following your daily progress and will be here everyday. You guys really are true entrepreneurs though!
@ Everyone - Sorry I havn’t been around recently to add to the site with more posts - I’ve been very busy with University and new projects and decided that Blogtrepreneur would be better off in Adam’s hands, than sitting in the deadpool.
Adam and his team already have a lot of things planned for Blogtrepreneur which will be in action very soon, so now is the time to stay tuned and make sure you don’t go anywhere!.
If you have a few minutes, leave a comment here letting me know what you’re all up to, and if by any chance you are also into cars, checkout my new car website - Car Throttle and subscribe to its feed!.
Thanks again to everyone for being so supportive over the years, and for helping this site to become what it is today.
Good writing. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed my Google News Reader..
