How is this any different than hosting content on a corresponding provider. Videos on Youtube and Vimeo,resume on LinkedIn, Portfolio on any blogging platform,or just simply using Facebook Pages?

I can understand that people have the freedom of putting anything on your site (to a point), but it still requires work to create a new site and having a knowledge of html and css at the minimum.

The cost is cheap $10 a day, but it is still more than the free providers on those mentioned.

The goal is to build a consistent, and eventually large audience, and the value of the site being access to that audience. Yes, you can host your content on Youtube, LinkedIn, Wordpress, or any number of CMSs, but you still have to find a way to drive traffic to your content, and that is usually not easy. The selling point down the line will essentially be, renting the eyeballs for a day to jumpstart awareness for your content.

Like a Groupon Daily deal, but for websites? All eyes on one site, hosting one particular content. I can see how that could catch one. It would depend on the traction initially. Meaning you would need very unique and viral content to get the first viewers there. After you have a viewer base then it can become quite beneficial as a daily advertising platform.
