Kia's World

It has been around 3 months since the KiasWorld redesign - and our 100th member has just joined. I thought I would take this opportunity  to thank you all for your help, let you know what we have achieved so far, and of cause where we are going.

So, firstly, a big thank you to all members & for all your input - long may it continue.

So, where are we now - and where have we come from? I guess to start I shall go through a few figures:

Over the last 3 months KiasWorld has seen a 150% - 200% increase in traffic.

Most of our traffic either comes direct to KiasWorld or via Google.

Other than Google, RAP and wikipedia send the most people to KiasWorld.

A few users are now starting to come from facebook - hopefully this will increase.

So, where are we? we now operate www.kiasworld.co.uk, forum.kiasworld.co.uk, off-the-grid.kiasworld.co.uk, &  blog.kiasworld.co.uk - www & forum are used a good deal, off-the-grid & blog are not used so much - though they are newer and will hopefully pick up soon.

My main focus at the moment is the blog & facebook stuff. In the short term there will also be the stickers & meetups.

Where do we go from here? People - that has to be a major focus - both 'on site' and off. Also, I would like some help with content for KiasWorld - if anybody wants to write for KiasWorld - please let me know.

There has been lots of talk on the forum of the pace which this should all move at - the simple answer is that we have very little control over the pace - it will all set its own pace and we must all 'dip in' when we can.

Once again - thank you all for your input over the last few months - and here's to the next three - cheers!
