Web market in Ex-yu/Adria region
ByAs some of you know, I live in Belgrade, capitol of Serbia. Recently, Serbia became tennis force in the world (Djokovic, Jankovic, Ivanovic in top 5)
Ex-yu or Adria region is not so big but there are some interesting web sites. I would suggest you to check out great series on ReadWriteweb about top international web applications. There you will find some info about Serbia (I believe you heard about the author of that artice) and you will also find info about Croatian web market.
In case you are a international or domestic media buyer and you are interested to find some good places to buy ads I can suggest you to check out the list on RadanPro where you will find top lists of sites in Adria region based on Alexa ranking.
In this region there are several web sites in Top 1500 list by Alexa: in Serbia those websites are B92.net (I work in B92), Burek and Krstarica, in Croatia those web sites are Google.hr, Net.hr, Index.hr, Blog.hr, Smokva.com, Tportal.hr, in Slovenia it is only Google.si but the Najdi.si was once the most visited and still most profitable local web site.
In this market except with some examples like MojPosao, still no real 7 figure buy-outs like for example in Hungary with IWIW web site or in Romania with eJobs.ro web site. Soon, I believe there will be several million dollars buyouts in this region, too.
It is good to come to this market and invest in some web sites, price is still low and soon it will be much higher.
