whits-end Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 New ADSC website should be up this week, but it's looking like a new domain name may be required. I'll update you all as soon as it's available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it is not the same people that made the new and improved ITG. I shouldn't read stuff like this when drinking tea... that was good....

Blackstar Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Our club has decided to delete our website. We monitored activity for over a year and the website saw very few visits. We are Facebook only going forward. Its free, reaches a ton more people and doesn't require someone who knows what they are doing to update. No brainer.

We're doing the same Tim, way more reach with Facebook, I have our page set to allow public viewing. Anyone that does a google search will see it first once we kill the old website, you can see and read everything, but if you're not a FB user you can't post, reply or send pm's. The website no can post, so having the post feature for FB users is a big bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderman Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Any business with a product has to have a Facebook page these days, especially if you ever want to reach a younger crowd, any retailer not running all social media will not survive.

I would send the message to Facebook account before a web site. Facebook is watched by many and the news would get out to the club and the riders immediately. A message to the website's email address would most likely go unread for many hours or days. As an administrator of several Facebook pages I receive messages on my phone and computer immediately. The website I maintain I see emails when i happen to check them which is once or twice a day. Appears to be a "waze" version of the trail guide. User defined.

bbakernbay Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Just to show how powerful Facebook is I’m posting one of our Club’s recent posts and in a few days 3,299 Views. We do also maintain a website but to get info out there quickly Facebook is the only way to go. Obviously it takes time and good content to attract Facebook followers so don’t expect big numbers immediately. Personally, I think both are needed by Clubs wanting to provide the full range of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100% We have both and find both very effective Glad to see that they are updating with a newer website also. We just did the same this year. Was getting tired of the old site. The new sites now are so much user friendly and quick to update. Unlike the older sites. My old website would take me at least 1/2 an hour to update anything on my page. Now it's just as fast as FB. Also most of the younger generation do prefer snapchat and instagram. But many are still using FB Now let's get some sledding !!! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and hope to see many of you in 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
