Suggestion For Boosting Site Awarness.

Post by jafo »

I just got on the site and am getting ready to be a regular contributor. I am also a member of a car club that really mirrors this club alot. It specificaly served 1970 thru 1972 Monte Carlos. I was with this club from almost the inception. I found it through E-Bay. I've watched this club grow very succesfuly through the years with a good solid membership foundation. They would have T-shirts made up and sell them on E-bay, cheap advertisement and make alittle money for the club also. They also offer Hats, T-shirts, Jackets ect. for paying club members only much later on that also helped with contributions. I know there has to be alot more KDX riders out there than Monte Carlo owners. :mrgreen: So what do you think? Throw something on E-bay with your site logo on it and see what happens?

jafo- This site is so new that I haven't even though about this type of advertising. Heck... I've only got the meta tags for the search engines embedded in the home page! :razz: But, yeah... we will probably do this in a few months once we get everything on the site tweaked... thanks for the suggestions! :mrgreen:

I have had fender stickers made in the beginning and ended up with allot of leftovers...

I plan to make some shirts and ball caps available this spring if there is any interest....

BTW... it takes money to have this stuff made and donations help with that! :wink:

Ever take a look at cafe press? Stuff ends up being a little pricer, but you don't have to worry about inventory, blah, blah. They will make one shirt/hat/decal/thong or 1000 on demand....Driven by the customer. Wish I'da thought of it. :neutral:

Also something I've been meaning to bring up...Another site I go to has a donate-o-meter set at $50/month right in the top right corner....Think it's pretty cool.

That Donate-O-Meter is written for PHP Nuke... which I am not running. I have looked at the code and I would have to completely rewrite it and then it still may not work. This forum is not set up as a portal and there is where the problem is.

What, Ski? Are you jealous 'cuz you can't carry? Awwww.... Wibby will be such a great "dad," since he is already teaching the little "tyke" how to ride a dirt/woodz "byke!"
