V8
Bulletin Board review
The
aim of the new V8BB launched in December 2012 is to attract good quality information
and support through the topics and responses posted on the V8BB in terms of both
style and content. Whilst the V8BB is operated on an "open to all" basis
for viewing the threads, access to post messages is a "member only"
benefit. This policy is supported by a majority of V8 members who have responded
to the V8 Members Survey 2013. A report on that survey will be released before
the year end.

 | The
V8 Bulletin Board was launched a year ago and has seen 190 topics posted
to the V8BB which have attracted 916 messages from fellow members as responses.
The number of views of the webpages with the messages on those topics was 90,110, |
an
average of over 7,500 a month or 250 a day. Over the year the figure has steadily
risen month by month and by November 2013 the V8BB attracted 28,392 views,
or over 945 a day. In the first 8 days of December there were 8,066 views
or 1,008 a day.
Two related topics have attracted the most replies
and views - a thread called "ECUmate diagnostic test unit on eBay"
launched by Simon Austin in Canada on 26th June with 14 replies and 2,645
views and then "RV8 cable & plug to connect to Testbook"
launched for Edgar Ljone in Norway on 14th July which saw 13 replies and
4,045 views. These topics remain of interest to RV8 enthusiasts and we
hope contributors will provide some useful RV8NOTES in the New Year. The V8BB
enables fellow MGV8 enthusiasts around the World to seek information and help
from fellow members and share views and their experiences on many topics, not
least technical issues.
How often do members visit the V8BB?
Initial
data from the survey forms sent in by fellow members in response to our current
V8 Members Survey 2013 indicate that 40.5% of visits are daily including
5.1% making multiple visits a day. Slightly surprising is 8.1% of members responding
to the survey have never visited the V8BB.
