It's still a rough idea i haven't flushed out all the pros and cons yet. But to answer your questions...
The goal of the site would be to help people out and share information and ideas in an industry that rarely does so. I have a lot of feedback and ideas to share. If I launch the site and one person takes the advice and it helps expand their business to new heights then it would be a success.
Paid/Private/Free? Definitely free. No interest in ever directly making money from the idea. If it happened great. But the idea is to give this information for free to build up for something bigger and better.
b2b or b2c? Definitely B2B. Probably nothing for the C in this project.
Traffic? I wouldn't drive traffic to it as I have none LOL. I'd probably use GFY and Xbiz as platforms to get the word out and then see how it spreads. If I have good information to give then I imagine it would build a following.
Clearly all those replies still beg the question WHY? My thinking is if this is done right it could lead to something bigger. Who knows what that may be. Running something? Consulting? Joining something. I have no idea. I figure start small with this and see where it leads.
