Posted: Sun Apr 04, 2010 1:22 am
According analytical reports on our web server, ROBOT.LK is getting lots of traffic from US and Europe through search engines, social media publishing like Twitter and Facebook and RSS feeds. At the very beginning ROBOT.LK was launched exclusively to support local engineers, technicians, under graduates, school children and rest of technology enthusiasts. However, after several months, the scenario was changed by search engines that diverted lots of international visitors to us. So we have changed our plans to make it suitable for all the people irrespective of nationality with same aims & objectives.
According to recent discussions we had, there were lots of suggestions and some made in to action. The first one is search engine registration, SEO, social media and RSS feeds. This was a great step taken ahead by us and we are still gaining great results through them. This will continue the lifetime of ROBOT.LK without any doubt. Secondly, Magneto has suggested to get ourselves introduced through popular science magazines. As a result, he has taken necessary step to advertise in Vidusara. Most of the local users will agree with me that it was very effective. Lots of Sri Lankan users had joined within one week of the advertisement. Thirdly, Magneto suggested about having stalls in several Technical Exhibitions. Due to some difficulties, we had to postpone this.
ROBOT.LK belongs to all active members and keeping it popular among local community is also a responsibility of you all. Since we do everything possible to keep things going on in a higher pace, I thought of opening this topic to get your ideas and suggestions to get ROBOT.LK in to grass route level. I must also mention about the two remarkable Promo Team Members Nipuna and G-sparkZ. They are doing a great job and there are few other members who had Invited their friends through "Invite a friend" feature.
Please add your ideas & suggestions and join in hand to hand with us to make it public among local community that will help to improve the life standard of our people. I'll also add my ideas on this topic as well.
