This is just an expert ISP opinion by name TimiGate and I do not completely agree with some of the points pointed out here but will love to know what you think.
I’m pretty sure when you mention blogging in Nigeria,
the first thing that will come to your mind is Lindaikeji. I admire her giant
leap into doing new things but at this time, when preparation meet opportunity,
an invention is born… but in her case, should we called this inadequate
preparation or what?

preparation or what?
Here are the 5 Reasons Extracted From TimiGate
1. The site is annoyingly slow!
02:08.16 That is the average time it takes for the home page to be displayed on
LIS. 2 minutes and 8 seconds. Within this period, I was able to log on to
facebook four times, youtube five times, Nairaland eight times. The most annoying
part is that most of the times the site is inaccessible.

2. Security concern
Linda revealed that she contacted a web developer to start work on the
development of LIS after having a meeting with two women. Well, it is a known
fact that Linda unlike Mark Zuckerberg or Seun Osewa is not an IT professional.
Why then would anyone want to trust her with sensitive information? The level
of agreement entered into with the web developer is unknown. In event that
there is a breach in contractual terms, users will surfer.

3. Followership
Except you are a celebrity, I don’t see how you will be able to amass 50000
followers on this platform. Why would 50k people follow you when you are not a
celeb? Nigerian celebs are too comfortable on there high horses either to want
to delve into the followership business of LIS. If you don’t have 50k
followers, you don’t get a bite of the advertisement money. This is just a way
of Linda saying sorry, I can’t share my money with you.

4. 1k per post
This is Linda saying Though I cant share my bread with you, you can still
get the crumbs! Except you you want to do it because you have been doing it for
free, I dont see how 1k can spur someone into writing lengthy posts and
endangering his/her life by taking the pictures of armed police men taking
bribes on the road. These is just a marketing strategy where it is announced
world over that you can make money on LIS yet you cant find someone who has
done such.

5. Nothing new
While Linda said it was born out of the need to bring Lindaikejisblog and
facebook together on one platform, LIS has no new features that make her a
substitute for facebook. While it is possible to make calls on facebook, it isn’t
on LIS.

I totally agree with him, I think everything he mentioned are right. But anyone who still want to sign up can sign up. It's not by force.
Hmmmmmm
Am not even a Linda fan I only open her site twice all over my life,I have to agree with the man points but it's free world am OK with where I get my little information
Same here ooo. Me no send am.
nice post kudos to the author of this post can't wait for more of your posts by the way ur article is amazing and very true
Yea
You nailed it bro… Thanks for the enlightenement. It took me hours to even login the first day the sight was launched. I waited and waited for a verification email, nothing as been sent till date. I had to login with my FB account which I know its not safe.
Asin me i no gree oo.
Even when facebook started with facemash, they encountered a whole lot of problems! I sincerely love what this lady did.
Timigate should go and sleep mbok
With time Linda would cover up ..
Rome wasnt built in a day.
I think the timigate is having a red eye where linda camps..
My only annoyance is that we CANNOT Get BACK LINK FROM THAT SITE…. Idunno but lets keep watching

You said my mind.. .all I can sense in this post is pure jealousy.. ..when they can't reach your level they'll try to bring you down to theirs….. God bless LIS God bless us all…. .Peace
Thank you Prof for sharing this post with us. God bless you.
I can see jealousy in above write up
Just an eye opener…he's not jealous!

I don't even like the blog
LIB?? I don't even want to know what's going on on that part of the world, never a fan. I've not even visited that page before because all what the blog is about is just "Gossip and Defamation".
I'm compelled to agree with the author submissions.
I'm satisfied with Africa largest forum where there is "diversity" in posts and threads.
Oga Yomi, thanks for last time.
The site is so slow.any way she try
Oga Yomi I don dey look you and the timigate with one eye… .i sense jealousy oh.. ..
Well said if you talk of constructive criticism, but I think you should send this to her in a private mail that way she would get her developers to work on the above points.
JEALOUSY. #simple.
All that was written are true but the form in which it arrives screams JEALOUSY!
lol i can't call that jealousy just the fact of life

This is the starting point… those fb features will be added soon eg, video calling. etc….
yomi prof you just speak the truth but I won't agree with all your point stated here
she won't force any to write a news report for 1k except that person want to feed himself on that. She is doing what she knows how to do best
just like you yomiprof so aim higher bro
This is the most STUPID post I've read on this blog since I started following this blog updates Mr Yomi. The guy who wrote this post is an enemy of progress and a jealous soul too. The slowness of the site stopped after the first day, how can u compare #LIS to.Facebook and the rest? When you're aware its just a week old? Well it might interest you to know that I have over a thousand followers, and still counting. So if u wish to keep on bringing people's name down, you won't move forward. #LISrocks. #LISaddict. Thank you prof Yomi.
Read through the comment man! You and a few are the odd one out.

Whoever coined this article spoke everything I've got in heart. Kudos! I can't even imagine writing for N1000… Chukwu ekwe Kwa la ihen ojo!
I am core web developer, and i can see what a normal person cant see about LIS, what timigate pointed out is absolutely true, jealousy or no jealousy it is the truth, and am not surprise if they say the site takes time to load. the site is not well optimized and the choice of javascript framework is not the best for this kind of project, and the ui designer no try at all, but i will not blame Linda, shes not a techie person and probably do not know what is going on behind the scene, all she want is to see site up, i think if she can work on the tech aspect she can really compete with facebook in Nigeria market, she has the money to do it.
Omo mehn… like seriously?
