Accentium Web launches content aggregation site Taaza.com

05 November, 2009
Accentium Web, which already runs websites such as SecondShaadi.com, Gaadi.com and StudyTimes.com, has now launched Taaza.com, which aggregates content across different verticals such as news, videos, loans, insurance, photos and videos from multiple sources. There is also plan to aggregate content around movies, stocks, travel and classifieds.

Vivek Pahwa, CEO, Accentium Web, has said, “We are already in specialized niches such as education, matrimonial and cars, but we would also like to extend our reach into other verticals with good quality internally generated, aggregated and user generated content.”

According to the company, users can also submit news and other content and other users can vote and comment on them. “We are excited to grow Taaza.com and add unique and value addition content and grow traffic to the site – Various sections are monetizable and we plan to do so once we have built up critical traffic mass,” Vivek Pahwa has added.

Dear Mr. PahwaFan forgive me for saying this but I have a great sense of humor. Kindly read ur message twice. It looks like a Cheap PR technic ! You have a ID which says PahwaFan (what in the world is that?!) who the hell is Pahwa? is he hritik roshan or someone that he has a Fan and a fan with his name's ID? who posts all over the Internet immediately after any article is written abt them? How Sick and CHeap is that?!

Worst is you compare them with Digg and others who are great original thinkers and entrepreneurs who did what Taaza is doing now almost 5 years ago!

Are you and Pahwa both suffering from "Psychophancy"

Oh I am sorry u wouldn't even know the meaning of that term!

Be Humble, and honest when u post something on good Blogs and stop being fake, pretending and self fame hungry!

This is nothing new at all! Good clean site but not new or innovative! There is a great Hyper Aggregation News Portal for India which I really feel is designed and executed very well, chk: http://www.indychai.com/

This is a superb initiative.

They have seen great success in launching desimartini and beaten orkut out of business. It was very unfortunate that the HT[Firefly] guys seen an opportunity and bough out that great property , that resulted in 230% revenue increase for Firefly !!!

Vivek Saar..You are the man saar. Am sure you'll shunt Digg/Stumbleupon/delecious etc out of business

I am your BIG fan saar!
