Title: Join the club
Post by: Puff Daddy on July 15, 2006, 01:08:22 PM
MetroidHunter has described one way to spruce things up around here, by having already members come out with new, refreshing posts...

But my main question is, we have 47 members, how can we gain more? How can we have more wii-nuts, or even wii-hates join the club? And how do we maintain them to stay here and read, as well as have them post. Please, I beg those that normally do not post...please tell us an idea as to how we can open you up...or at least, to have new members feel welcomed and feel free to post?

I hear many concerns of searching on Google and Wii-volution is at the bottom of the barrel. I know when I throw a search in, I got a different wii-volution site in a special little highlighted box, saying about how great of a community they were. How do we become a highlighted box? Being number 1 in search sure does help...so how we do it?

And finally, how do the members that are here....how do you feel about the site? Do you go to other forums as well? If so, why? And what do you feel are the strong points and weak points of this site?

I go on many, many different forums(I have 5 up at this moment), and have been doing so since I was about 8 or 9. For me, it's a kind of obsession...

Anywhooo, I think we should have some kind of advertising campaign, or something, attached our sig for those us that go on different forums. There should be some sigs like this in the gallery as well, that sum up why one should register here and stuff.

Then again, that's probably a really crap, and confusing, idea. Nevermind.

Good idea's guys. Id be doing some advertising right now, but one thing at a time. Im finishing up the backend programming for the site and then I can focus more on advertising again. Im only one person :-) That's why im reopening the help wanted section.

I mainly go to one other forum aside from Wiivolution. That was my first forum and I've been there for a few years so I stick around. They have a lot of members and I get a lot of news from there.

We normally get a few new members each week, they just don't post, hopefully they longer we're here the more that will come. It just takes time, but advertising wouldn't hurt either.

sigs on the nsider forums seem to help most sites a little bit
