I will donate when I am next back in funds.

 

Give me a month or two & I will donate.

 

I think you know the score with me Thai Hot & I may only be a member but I am a Mad old Addict & appreciate just how difficult life is in Business with ever increasing costs.

 

My Donation is just that & given with no conditions what so ever.

 

If I could just add one idea I believe you should consider a level 3 or Deluxe level just for the very proven & known members to share there stuff in there & they should pay for the advantage of having this section & Luxury.

 

IMO I believe a little comfort & the safety feel was lost quite naturally as the forum went super successful & global.

 

Long live Pattaya Addicts & God bless us all who enjoy the forum & each other here in Cyber Space.

The power user group was invented to raise donations to bring the forum fast forward with its marketing and traffic campaign, we now have huge keyword rank leaps in google, which would have took many years without the donations. A big thanks to all the previous power users and the current ones. Also a thanks to anyone that has made a donation, small or large. Lots of guys have said to me that the forum has saved them alot of money, I know that its not just the forum itself, its the other contributing members that have helped, they often say to me that the forum saved there ass, well this is the opportunity to help the forum back, by helping us promote the forum somehow. If we get more members, we get more advice, reviews, news, pictures and funny stories.

 

Only advanced members can become power users, please apply for advanced membership here

 

In laymans terms, the donations are used to pay people (cheap) to add links to various websites, sometimes we buy banner advertising, the more links that we receive on relevant websites, the higher we get on google for various search terms, this means that we get more people clicking on our site. Therefore we get far more traffic and member signups than every other pattaya forum put together. We tend to aim for higher quality links on travel sites which accompany an article.

 

Read about benefits of power user and how to become one here (regular members cannot see this thread -->) http://www.pattaya-a...anking-results/

 

I am fully aware that its not a competition just to simply get more traffic, but its a race to get more members to get more discounts on our discount card scheme that has just been relaunched. By targeting mongerers and anyone searching for topics of Pattaya, Bangkok, Bar girls, gogos, nightclubs, it means that we get more relevant members, having more members means that there is more questions and answers to almost everything asked. I have always seen Pattaya Forums too slow compared to some of the technology ones and there has always been too many similar threads covering the same subjects over and over. By attracting more members, it means we have more topics to choose from, this creates a better user experience and means that members are more likely to stick around opposed to going back to facebook. To apply for a privilege card, read here http://www.pattaya-a...rivilege-cards/

 

Some critics may think that its simply a greedy drive to make more money from traffic, well anyone that knows me, knows I love pattaya, bargirls, nightlife scene and I enjoy talking about it. If I was doing this to make money I would have to cut out sexy pictures and bar girl talk like Thaivisa, because very few advertisers want to be associated with our "dirty" forum, but I love it being an underground forum, at the same time its well known in the mongering circles in Pattaya, which is what I want. We need more mongerers coming to Pattaya and claim walking street back!

 

I would like to make the site more social able with instant messaging features that are easier to access. But I have to wait for the forum coders to get their ass in gear. Members can already chat privately through the Chat system, but its not known enough. Another way to kill boredom is to watch the "spy" system to see what people are getting up to and to respond to them.

 

I have been keeping an eye on various forums around Thailand, and the only one that has more traffic than us is Thaivisa.com (by far) all of the rest of the forums dont even show up on the graph when using alexa to compare sites to ours.. I don't normally mention competing forums, but its always good to do research on other peoples traffic and keyword research, if I don't keep my eye on the ball, we will loose traffic and forum members will go elsewhere. You can compare us to other forums here http://www.alexa.com...ya-addicts.com#

 

As expected when we started the power user idea 10 months ago, we got alot of donations and then they died down around 5 months ago, so our progress with rankings has slowed down, this can actually be seen with traffic stats, but on a site like this the traffic does go up and down, but when you compare over the years its a slow curve. We upgraded to a server with the same amount of hops as a bank to try to make things faster, but with increased traffic we are always needing to upgrade. The latest server has been ordered and costs 30% more, but its a good sign that our traffic is in the right direction!

 

We asked those that want to help put something back into the forum to subscribe or donate, but with todays economy alot of people are cutting back. If you would like to help us, you could post a link on your website, your favourite sites/forums or on facebook. Helping us put stickers around Pattaya... Even writing trip reports on worldwide mongering sites and linking back to Pattaya-addicts.com is highly wanted and appreciated. If we can bring more mongerers to Pattaya and keep the mongering scene running, people are complaining there are too many russians/indians or other non mongeriing groups around, but people do nothing about it! If we all invite friends over to pattaya, or spread the word, we can make a difference, If you have time, you can help get newbies onto this site and the members trip reports do the selling, if you have little time, then maybe becoming a power user means that you have made your mark!

 

If you donate money and want to see evidence of what it was spent on, you are more than welcome to ask.

 

Here is the original power users thread with all the updates on it, its 10 months old, so some of its not valid, but in short, the money donated has put us well and truly high up on the search engines, any more donations will give us that extra boost that is needed.

Google placement as you know can be achieved by many means from Keyword spamming to legit links and posts where links on other legit websites is a huge plus. Cross traffic. You know all this but paid Google clicks for search terms isn't I don't believe what you are looking for. Probably a million wanna be placement guys on the planet and maybe 5% are valuable. Just my 2 cents from my business experiences.
