What is the strategy that has allowed Rie.cl to achieve greater results?
Without a doubt, a great advantage came from the idea of opening our platform to ordinary people, free of charge and with a direct and easy language.
Is there a mistake that was made with Rie.cl but that you would now be able to avoid?
The main error, or rather the greatest risks, arose when Rie.cl began to grow, since the community of users was considerably expanded and there was a risk of weakening communication channels and consequently direct control with regarding the contents of the users, which in some circumstances could also cause some inappropriate uses of our platform.

Investigating, creating, assembling, remaking and permanently reinventing yourself should be the fundamental concept of any online business. The universe of the Web is infinite, personally I am convinced that many applications with a worldwide impact are yet to be born.
