Peeps.
I just wanted to say thanks for all the contributions here and your support. I also wanted to give you an update of where we are, and whats going on. Also to get some feedback on what our members would like from ADUK.
The site recieves just over 100k visitors a month, with healthy growth stats. We've had 3 server upgrades (at over 6GB of bandwidth, thats quite a bit), take more traffic than both the IAM and RoADA websites put together and Number 1's in MSN and other search engines, with Page 1 in Google. So that gives you an idea of the size we've got to in a very short space of time.
Emails are coming in for information faster than I can deal with them. In terms of informing people about Advanced Driving, I think the site is doing what I wanted it to. I wish I could hire someone to help with the admin !
I've managed to use that information above and traffic stats to get a deal in car insurance for registered members and the list of potential member benefits is growing by the day as well as the 3 pages of A4 of priority list for the site for what we want to do and what it does for Advanced Driving as a whole.
We've got groups of people doing "Drive Day's" all over the place, giving people a taster of what Advanced Driving is about, and have rapidly gained the support of purists and enthusiasts in Advanced Driving and given ideas on the way to go about promoting it.
I believe it gets better from here and really want to thank everyone for their support so far.
What I would like to know from you is, as users of this site, what do "you" want out of it? I get PM's from lots of people with ideas, and even though I might not have the time to do them (I work full time as well you know !
) I still add them to the list and work with the site moderators and regular users to what helps in terms of promoting advanced driving, and supporting our members.
So, whats your thoughts?
