Is this a subtle advert?
[edit]Ref 1 is for this line:
It competes with other web hosting and creation such as Weebly, Lifeyo, Jimdo, Cif2.net, Webs, uCoz, Wix and Webnode.[1]
But the best I can tell, Yola competes with HostGator, BlueHost - but these are not mentioned. Anyone could make their own list. But we have a list on wikipedia of non-dedicated web-hosting services with comparisons.
So why no mention of HostGator? Or any other big player with rave reviews and better tools? And more choices. And better support.
The TechCrunch "review" practice is widely criticized - could we do no better?
How to advertise subtly: avoid mentioning the obvious. Add "info" which is in fact a smokescreen. Job done.

Yola does not compete with Hostgator. Yola is for people with little or no HTML and CSS skills and uses a drag-and-drop method of creating webpages. Hostgator is for people who prefer to either create their own pages using HTML and CSS or install self-hosted PHP applications such as WordPress. Yola competes with services such as Weebly and Webs (the old Freewebs). Hostgator competes with services such as Dreamhost. The two are very different. 139.80.123.44 (talk) 09:14, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
I came here because I thought the article is an advert or written in such brevity it merely covers what an advert would do. I was looking for a website that is relatively open source or internet standards compliant. Yola was the first one that opened without my having to grant it permission from No-Script. Is there a list of such things on Wikipedia?
