If all anyone wants is a joyful orgasm under the covers,
then, in principle, it doesn’t matter to him at all who, where and when to cum.
But if you need something more,
then you will have to work yourself to make it that “something big”!
"The American" by Leslie Waller.

If you are looking for an example of a successful project that began without a strategy to “capture” the market and at least a bad business plan, you don’t need to look far: Mail.ru, today - large communication portal Runet, with a monthly audience of more than 50 million unique users, once started as a fascinating experiment by St. Petersburg programmers. Employees of the DataArt company at the end of the 20th century (in 1998, to be precise) created a fundamentally new “engine” for the mail service. After launching the service in test mode, the creators quickly became convinced of the growing popularity of the Mail.ru mailer. What can stimulate better interest thousands of Russian users, multiplied by the understanding that new service capable of bringing not only self-respect, but also substantial money?

In the same year, 1998, the entire St. Petersburg branch of DataArt was transformed into an independent company Port.ru (Port.ru). And this newcomer already had goals, strategies, and large-scale plans for the future. The company decided to start with a matrix-type Internet portal, combining many thematic sections and diverse services. Of course, the “star of the project” remained [email protected], and along the way, Port.ru employees opened such resources as Music.Ru, Rabota.Ru, Talk.Ru (they definitely realized the benefits quickly). In 1999, the original Internet publication Internet.ru (Internet.Ru) was published and it took Port.ru specialists another year to develop and release the commercial project Torg.ru (Torg.Ru), which is currently operating under the name Tovary@ Mail.Ru.

An intense two-year work yielded stunning results: more than a million users greeted the new millennium as adherents of Mail.ru projects. The company's history began successfully.


What happened next? Birthday of the Mail.Ru portal.

In this part of the story about the creation of Mail.Ru, you need to do small retreat and tell us about the NetBridge company. Appearing on the actively developing RuNet market, it specialized in creating projects based on well-known Western models. The success of this approach can be judged by the first NetBridge project - Molotok.Ru (Molotok.Ru), which is still actively working today.

More - more. NetBridge, inspired by the success of Molotok, is implementing several more commercial projects, acquiring along the way banner network LBE (LBE), Runet List.ru (List.Ru), rating Top.List.ru (Top.List.Ru). But NetBridge did not survive as an independent company for long. In 2001, it merged with Port.ru. Such a merger allowed Port.ru to take a leading position among Russian Internet holdings in terms of audience coverage and market share.

In 2001, Port.ru management decided to rebrand. Port.ru was replaced by the truly popular Mail.ru. This is how a portal appeared, well known to every Runet user.

Growth, development and the war against viruses.

With amo creation of Mail.Ru would be an insignificant fact if the portal had not grown over the subsequent years. Several important decisions, whose adoption peaked in 2003. But already in 2002, an experienced observer could have noticed the prerequisites for the upcoming changes - it was at this time that the company’s management decided to increase the number of mail services, adding @inbox, @bk, @list to @mail.

In 2003, users were asked to evaluate a number of significant improvements and innovations. One of them was the ability to search for information in . Its own Mail.ru was created on the basis of Google WebSearch, a little later it was improved, and with its help it was possible to search, and in 2004 it was integrated with List.Mail.ru. But this was not the real breakthrough.

In 2003, Mail.ru decided to win back part of the audience from the most popular of that day ICQ messenger and developed the instant messenger Mail.ru Agent (Mail.Ru Agent). The rapidly developing “talker” functionality has made Agent one of the most popular messengers in Russia. Today, Mail.ru Agent allows you not only to exchange online and offline messages, but also to send free SMS, make video calls, create conferences, and simultaneously work with an unlimited number of accounts. In addition, it supports the ICQ protocol, and what else, one might ask, does a modern Russian user need?

Also in 2004, another popular solution- removing the limit on the size of the mailbox. It must be said that users perceived this no less joyfully than the fact that the Agent appeared. By that time, almost every Russian with access to the Internet acquired his own e-mail (often more than one), to which a lot of information was “merged.”

That’s how it is: for every postal service have their share of SPAM, viruses and other spoilers of the joyful life of the average Russian user. Almost immediately after its creation, Mail.Ru began to actively fight these phenomena, not neglecting the help of the powerful in the fight against virtual infection. The company has collaborated and is cooperating with specialists from Dialog Science (that is, developers (Dr.Web)), Kaspersky Lab, Ashmanov and Partners (antispam). Collaboration bears fruit, RuNet users do not have to worry about the security of their email. Hooray.

From 1 to 20 in 4 years.

In 2004 it is gaining momentum. The company's developers actively took on improving the search engine; the morphology of the Russian language, history search queries, and in 2005 a search bar for IE appeared.

Want to know how these decisions impacted your audience reach? Dry statistics: in 2004, Mail.Ru had 20 million unique active users, against one million in 2000. Growth and success are obvious.

Even before the registration of the anniversary (20 millionth) mailbox, the design of Mail.ru was revised. According to the developers, the page has become brighter, more attractive and easier to read. By at least, users rated it. By the way, in the same 2004, the company decided to help those who like “free” access and opened [email protected] ( [email protected]) - service list of Wi-Fi access points (Wi-Fi).

Services and games.

In subsequent years, the Mail.ru company opened a lot additional services. In order not to bore you with details, here are some dry numbers:

  • October 29, 2004 - the [email protected] project was launched.

  • Beginning of 2005 - opening of the [email protected] project and [email protected](multiplayer online game "World of Wizards"). The game turned out to be so popular that six months later another one was launched: Bugs.

  • 2005 - new services were added: Encyclopedias, and the [email protected] system was also launched.

  • November 2005 - our own appeared ([email protected]).

  • End of 2005 - [email protected] appears, thanks to which you can find out the schedule of upcoming entertainment and cultural events. By the way, Wi-Fi access points are also listed there. By spring, the project blossomed: regional “posters” appeared.

  • The spring of 2006 was marked by concern for people who prefer to access the Internet from mobile phones. Appears search service via WAP resources.

  • May 2006 - [email protected] appears.

  • In the summer, Mail.Ru services added a new section: education.

  • September 2006 - opening of [email protected].

As a result of such vigorous activity, by the beginning of 2007, the Mail.Ru project was valued at $1 billion, which beat all conceivable and unimaginable prices for Runet assets.

Social debut - “My World”.

Are you surprised that history of Mail.ru does not reflect the discovery of one of the most widely known services: ? This event was so significant (both for the company and for Runet) that it is impossible to allocate only one line to it in the article.

The social network “My World” appeared in 2007, which was generous with new services. Providing maximum opportunities for communication and exchange, the social network attracted the attention of almost all users and caused a wide public response. The main mission of “My World” is to allow users to always stay in touch and instantly find out news about each other.

The development of other social networks has somewhat reduced the popularity of “My World”. But in 2009, he regained his leadership position by opening a microblogging service, in which over 3.5 million messages are published daily. Around the same time, the company’s management made an unexpected decision to pay 100% of the earnings to the authors of applications working within the framework of “My World”. This caused a certain stir among developers, and also allowed Mail.Ru users to enjoy a lot of games.

Acquisition of AOE.

The acquisition of AOE is considered an important milestone in the creation of Mail.Ru. Thanks to good deal, the company has become the largest player in the online communications and entertainment market in Russia and the CIS.

By the way: a year later (in 2010), the company received 100% control over Astrum Nival and a few months later was recognized as the best game creator according to KRI 2010, receiving 4 awards at once.

Recent history of the company.

In the same 2010, Mail.Ru received recognition as a well-known trademark, enters the Baltic market and opens a representative office in Germany. In the summer, [email protected] acquired its own API, and soon the company introduced a new unique markup standard emails(OMF).

Since today, Mail.Ru delivers more than 150 million letters daily. The company continues to grow and introduce new services and applications. Nowadays Mail.Ru is one of the most successful enterprises on the Runet.

The mail.ru social network is the third most popular social network in Russia, second only to VKontakte and Odnoklassniki. But mail has something that these super popular services do not have, namely mail, cloud storage and your own electronic money.

Progress does not stand still, now you can download in a matter of seconds large file or start watching the video at high quality, and to replace the VCR and cassette recorder online cinemas have arrived, etc. And most All of these new options are available for pennies, some of them are also freely available. Sending a message to an addressee who is located in another part of the world is not a problem at all, and even more so with Mail.ru.

Registration in the service takes a few minutes and is largely the same as registration on other services. After registration it becomes accessible communication with friends, relatives, as well as the opportunity to keep in touch with those people who are dear to you. Some people manage to find love thanks to the Internet.

Typically, the first steps after registering on the site are actions related to maximizing the content of the user’s page, that is, adding photos, videos, detailed information about the account owner, etc. At first, some restrictions apply to beginners, but these are quickly removed once the user takes an active part in the life of the network.

Like Yandex and Google, mail provides a disk for storing files (cloud storage), but here it has surpassed its older brothers, and provides as much as 25 GB, while Yandex only 10 GB, and Google 15.

As you can see, for an old account like mine, even 100 GB is available.

U social network many partners who launch their projects on the site for various purposes: attracting new customers, promoting products, information support etc. Some independent companies provide their platform for, for example, or to start using certain services.

Due to the sharp growth of various advertising sites, including those on the ucoz platform, many decide to choose the Mail.ru project as an advertising platform, because the brand is well promoted, website promotion excellent, and there is also a multi-million army of users.

Moreover, if in real life maintaining a conversation with several people at once is quite problematic, then virtual communication Thanks to the messaging service, it allows you to have a conversation with several members of the social network at the same time.

The success of social networks in World Wide Web even encourages many companies and firms prohibit or minimize the communication of their employees using them, Mail.ru is no exception in this regard, because in addition to communication, you can hang out here for a long time, carried away by playing a game or watching a video or reading someone’s blog.

By the way blog creation within the network is a fairly trivial process, and any user can do this, so those who like to express their thoughts in detail on paper will certainly be happy this fact.

The disadvantage of any social network, as well as Mail.ru, is the high time consumption, because no matter how quickly the user types, saying these words out loud in a real conversation will be much faster. But such a conversation is convenient and possible at any time of the day, because you can always send a message “offline”.

In addition, people have the right to think before each new set of messages, which is impossible in real life, because long pauses during such a conversation do not add dynamics to the conversation, but rather reduce the entire conversation to nothing.

Yes, virtual communication is an excellent and effective activity in many respects, but we must not forget that there is probably nothing more valuable than a real face-to-face conversation in real life.

Nowadays, email is needed everywhere: making an appointment with a doctor, buying tickets online, registering on social networks. Therefore, I will tell you how to quickly and freely create a new mailbox on Mail.ru
