Socioblend[edit]

You asked: "If I prove that socioblend.com provides services cheaper than top 10 sites ranking on first page. Will that be enough?". The short answer is, no.

Wikipedia is not a business listing directory and does not expect or want to have articles about every company that exists. The test for inclusion is called Wikipedia:Notability and is not a matter of saying so, or of being cheaper than others, but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people not connected with the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? See also WP:Notability (summary) and WP:Notability (organizations and companies).

That is quite a demanding test and many perfectly worthy companies, especially new ones, cannot meet it. That is not at all to their discredit, it just means that they are not suitable subjects for a global encyclopedia.

Conflict of interest[edit]

I presume you are user Socioblend (talk) with a new account, as requested. That's fine, but you should make a note on user page User:MohitMaheshwari91 that you represent Socioblend, in order to comply with the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of use.

Also, please read the Wikipedia:plain and simple conflict of interest guide. In view of your COI, you should not post an article directly, but instead use the WP:Article wizard to guide you through the process, and choose the option to send the completed draft for review by an uninvolved user.

Before you put much effort into this, though, I advise you to think hard about notability, because if you cannot demonstrate it you will be wasting your time. Wikipedia is not here to help new companies become well-known - they have to be well-known already, so that there is independent comment about them on which to base an article, so that it is not just the company using Wikipedia to tell the world about itself.
