I know it has taken me a while to chim in on this one, I wanted to realy take a look at some of these other sites we are comparing our selves too.
I realy would like to see our regular useser numbers grow. We seem to have the same regulare people(25-50) posting up(padding doesnt count).
While we have a large number of people who join only to read what were up too.
I have been meaning to put more in the tech section, I think that is a large draw to people.
A store would be a big hit, some wives go to these sites in search of new swag to get as gifts.
The hard part is we are a bronco club, we are open to other vehicles. It is not a club rule you have to own a bronco, but it is a big reason why you would join us. Sites like classic are nation wide, there for they dont have alot of club meets. We are fortunet to have created a south eastern club, and I think we could even grab some other members from farther away. The down fall will be it would be very hard for these members to make many events. To an extent alot of what we have on this site can also be found on sites that would be closer to where these people live.
To help raise our numbers, I suggest regular(3-4) meets a year. Spread out to make it possible for any member to make it to one event.
Bussness cards to give out to anybody we come accross that would like to know more about us and broncos.
Larger tech section(even if its stuff copied from other sites).
An online store(I know I already said that). One that is not dependent our our leaders persnal cash to make it work.(we still have swag left from the spring meet so pass the word).
Trail rides, spread out so there is one near everbody(I realize there is only so many places to go) and with diffrent levels of dificulty. So regardless of what level of bronco you own(or non bronco) you can get out and have some fun.
Possibly flyers to put up at our local auto parts stores. Many people are not on the web, but if they saw a flyer about us or a meet. They may show up.
Oh, and I would fix the screen so you dont have to scroll left to right
cratchhe:.
A photo gallery like we had on the original site would be a help too.
These are just a few of my thoughts, some may be the same as others have posted. I just felt I should drop my 2C.:rebel:
