Just today, we’ve completed talks on taking over the site and forums at Motorcycle Philippines (motorcyclephilippines.com). Apparently the original owner and webmaster can no longer continue maintaining such a huge site so we offered to take over running it — everything from hosting, domains, software licenses, updates, forum management, events, sales and marketing (and I guess a whole lot more).
The site is pretty big actually, with 19,000 members in the forums, 200,000 unique visitors contributing to approximately 6 Million pageviews eating up 400GB of bandwidth monthly. It could easily eat up a couple hundred buck$ in operational costs (which it did with its former owner).
I am looking into converting the contents (except the forums) into a blog and hopefully be able to recuperate some of the costs (and time) from advertising.
I may have to buy my own bike to really get into the mood. How else can one manage the biggest motorcycle community in the Philippines if he doesn’t ride one? *jk* :D
yugatech! your the best! ikaw ang tinitingala ko na blogger dito sa pinas.
ngayon ko lang nalaman na ikaw na po pala sir yuga ang namamahala sa MCP .. astig.. galing talaga
thanks for savin us….just buy a bike and we can be one big happy family.
Good luck, I’m sure you can take that site to higher levels. :)
So will you eat your own dog food and start riding? :)
