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

1 These are articles that are stored on Wifcon.com's server and not as a link to another internet site.

2 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?

If you want to submit a professional article to Wifcon.com, contact Bob Antonio.
