Varun's Way: Zorpia - Emerging Social Network OR Spamster

Zorpia is the social networking site of China now going global. Its the site that is gaining market in India. Last month, according to Comscore PerfSpot was top 10 social network in India which was a surprise for all internet news networks. I feel that this time its going to be Zorpia.

Tactic used by Zorpia:

1. When ever you invite any of your friend Zorpia start spamming there mail boxes by sending invites more than trice a day.

2. Several people (more than 5/day) will send you request whom you do not know.

These all tactics look like use by a spammer.

I am writing this blog as Zorpia gets most of its traffic from India. Since India is the key market for them and Indian cares a lot about there privacy and security, they need to be more careful.

Since it is the startup by a youngster Jeffrey in 2003 when he was in college (Like Facebook story but not a similar success story) and now he is 27. But the team managing it looks litter bit weak and needs to work harder to reduce spams and upgrade security to make there site a better place to have a social networking.

Country and Percent of Site Traffic

India 64.7%
