virtusa.co.za | South Africa's Latest News, Sharing, and Discovering Community

virtusa.co.za is a newly launched South African social community web startup created by Johannesburg based webmaster, Mr. R. C. Stoltz. Here, users can share and discover not only the latest breaking news in South Africa, but just about anything on the web, especially the South African web.

Users also have the ability to create and join groups of interest, read, discover, post, and discuss news, stories, articles, and links, connect with like-minded people in doing so, and best of all, South African based web publishers making use of the Google Adsense network, can now indulge in a 80% - 20% revenue sharing model by simply sharing their links and being sociable. (80% for users that is).

This being said, virtusa.co.za is considered being South Africa's version of Digg (and is also inspired by Digg). However, places a main focus on the South African community.

Taking a deeper look into this powerful South African news, sharing, and social community, we have aso discovered a few additional 'perks' it has to offer; some of which includes (put simple) :

• Users can read the latest news (breaking news) from South Africa as well as the rest of the world AND submit their own news, articles, stories, and links. (This also includes celebrity, entertainment, technology, science, lifestyle, and sports categories to name just a few)
• Users can discuss any published news, articles, stories, and links with other users who share the same interest. (This includes commenting, social sharing, and on-site e-mailing to friends etc)
• Apart from NEWS, users can also submit, share, and discover any links of interest. Whether it be a news article, a story on a website, an interesting link to a website or web page, or a picture - you name it !
• Users can create and join groups of interest (similar to Facebook) where other users can join and take part in discussing topics of interest.
• South African based Google Adsense users (publishers) can indulge in a 80% - 20% revenue share model. (80% for users). This is also said to be the only such social community in South Africa to offer this.
• Webmasters and online publishers can indirectly increase their website/blog traffic as well as search engine rankings by simply posting their links, news, articles, stories, or whatever it is you feel you want to post.

Although http://www.virtusa.co.za is still fairly new, it already seems to be a promising startup to have hit South Africa and, we would like to urge fellow South Africans to join today.
