Ways to get somemore Members

[Racing Rice]

I was thinking of ways to get somemore members and it hit me.

Yahoo clubs... I need some help tho. There are a lot of clubs out there. So if you guys want to help post some links on the clubs maybe we can get some more peeps on here.

Anyother ideas please through them out here...

I'm not too familiar with how the clubs work though...

Setup a yahoo account.

Then on yahoos page theres a clubs link, go to Recreation/"something else" then autos,.. etc...

Then when you find a club you want to become a member to click on the club and there will be a Join this club option on the right side, click that put in your yahoo account name,(if you already signed on to yahoo itll put it in for you, and hit the ok, or join button or whatever it is and your a member.. There will usually be link sections, and you could probably put in on the message board if you try not to make it sound like an advertisement.

Example: I said:

"Hey everyone.. I found this new honda website, hondastyle.com its got all kindas of cool features in it. Its really cool.. "

or something like that. Just trying to get the word out a little.

I found this place by clicking on a link somebody had in their signature on another board (I want to say it was Racing Rice, but I'm not sure).

That way worked in getting me here. If more people did that, it could make a big difference.

I don't usually post on other sites - there can be some real jerks and i don't even want to set myself up for the inevitable onslaught. This is one of the first boards I have posted on. Don't you feel so special? hahaha...

You have my support 100%.

Way to go RR

Yeah, I agree that is a great way to do it, though I don't post too much on other sites now that I have HS.

the yahoo idea is a good one..I've not familiar w/ it but I'll give it a try.

I would also suggest maybe a giveaway or 2 from our sponsors? Like a free products of so much or free shipping or decent disc or something for that nature..that will bring peopel but also state a criteria of being an ACTIVE member on the boards. not just joined to get into a giveaway.

Tell as many people as you can about the site a word of mouth is one of the best means of spreading the word about something.

Have you thought of bz cards to sned out to peope that are willing to distribute them??

Just my $.02...

Seems as though thus far, the biggest draw is in having a link to the site when posting in other forums. gotta be a bit careful on this one not to upset any webmasters out there though. A good way to do it is something like having a link to a picture of your car on the site (either in a post or in the modified cars section - if your car is in there, that is).

Also, a signature link seems to help as well.

I've got some cards - but nothing major.... these tend to get lost somewhere between the hand-off and when the person is actually in front of their computer... The decals may begin to help as well.

What other ideas do you all have?

I got 2 cards w/ my stickers, and liked that, but I was wondering if I can get some more if at all possible? I would offer them out to people that I feel would be interested not just hand them to any and everyone....


At least make sure they have an interest and or on the web...LOL

[slowEJ6]

you can have copies made of the business cards to hand out, doesnt cost too much to do @ kinkos

I'd say the best thing NOT to do is to make a post like HondaImports did in the OT forum. Just be a little more subtle about it.
