A Women's Website and Online Community for
Women:
DotComWomen.com is a free membership web
site dedicated to women who are using the world wide web for their
personal as well as professional growth. DCW recognizes the importance
of spending quality time with family and taking time for yourself. It is
geared towards bringing out the truly professional woman in you along
with assisting you in keeping a healthy balance between career and
values, family, health and personal time.
Launch Date:
DotComWomen.com was launched by
LATA TOKHI (Lata
Budhrani then), the founder of DCW, on March 8, 2003, which incidentally
is ‘International Women’s Day’.
The Site’s Name:
We thought of all the reasons women utilize
the web, from finalizing a party menu with the help of cooking web sites
and sharing joys and sorrows with online friends to learning new skills
and earning an income – ‘Dot Com
Women’ was the first name to come to mind and it clicked!
