Wordpress with a cute ThemeForest Theme if you are bootstrapping is a good option ! You even have some plugin to install heatmap on wordpress and you can track your conversions rates with Google Analytics easily.

Hi, I'm raising money for my first startup (Business angel round) and I read lots of blogs to be familiar with the process(Dixon,Suster,Wilson,VentureHacks) but I am still eager to learn more about the subject. Do you know other good ressources (blog, book,video) to learn about how to raise money and the mechanisms ?

Thank you

Why not approach business directories in other countries (France, Germany,...) ?

Thank you :) yeah we want to connect you with the familiar stranger you see daily !

Hi, I participated in Paris Startup Weekend last december. It was amazing, I met very interesting and competent people that I still see today. And best of all I actually built a startup: http://www.submate.com we just launched the MVP 2weeks ago and it's a tremendous experience. I can assure you that we are now a real startup ! We have been selected at Plugg, The Next Web and Nonick and we are actually raising a seed round.

Startup Weekend is great !! And even better if you understand that everything actually start the next monday morning...

(in my experience, there were more marketing/biz guy than dev and very few designers)
