This article has few if any reliable sources, and most refer not to the website itself but the fund raising and mergers by its former and current parent companies. If anything, these sources would better justify articles about those entities rather than this particular website. The article's overall notability seems unclear.

Speedy keep The article has 59 (significant) citations from many major Pakistani newspapers, and before I had an edit conflict and lost my work, I was working on a history section using reliable foreign media as well. I'm not sure why the article is being deleted on the basis of referring to the company. Quite a few citations are referring to the website, and in many cases they refer to both. The article is 100% notable. I noticed that 2/3 of the article was nuked on the basis of removing promotional content, but it didn't seem too bad to me. This also should be discussed.
