Description:
(URL removed) is a website dedicated to the college students of America. The web-site's users update and share class notes, power point slides, and other important class information. Since an overwhelming majority of students put off school work until the midterm or the final exam, many students find themselves searching and cramming weeks of notes the night before an exam. Our website is dedicated to that overwhelming majority of students.
We will pay certain students to upload their school notes on our website and all information will be class and school specific. Meaning, notes will be sorted by the school you go to and which class you are looking notes for.
Since, we are segmenting the population by the school students go to, ads will be school and area specific. For example, local bar specials, tickets to special events, restaurants, hang out spots, etc. Ad space is how the website will generate revenue.
