Id say if nobody else does some work knock in on the head. As Norbs said, you have to offer something different to attract new readers. Stuey did that with a bit of humour but that became stale as it was always the same style. The Dear George stuff went a similar way, is it still going.
Maybe offer Norbs' style 'get a rider to take a picture of you with their girlfriend' competitions to get reader's interest.
I guess a youtube blog is more of a 2020 social media goer than websites, but thats a different ballgame altogether.

Ok I have paid for one more year. I'm not going to bother posting any more press releases though. I will only post stuff we create. I might put up something on twitter and see if we can get some original content via there also. Seemed a shame to give up on it after one year.

Got a week off soon. Obviously I will be using that time to do all the jobs I don't get time for whilst working but I am planning to use a bit of that time to write an article for the website. Got a few ideas. I might have to misinterpret facts for fiction though going forward.

Started writing an article for the site. Titled Winners and Losers of 2019. So far I have Redding and Ellison. Any suggestions? Who had a shit 2019 and who did good. I think Iannone will be in as a loser.

I finished it but it is about half the list I wanted to do. Didn't have the energy to do more. But it is a start I guess. Will try and do something once a week to get my writing muscle working again. www.motobanzai.com/winners-and-losers-in-2019/ |

Made a few forum changes also. Deleted YRF board as it had never been used. Made the Banzai Banter board viewable to all but only members can post.

Trying all sorts of measures to try and get more twitter followers and maybe then more forum members. Have resorted to liking and replying to famous popular women posters who have a large following who have a connection with motorcycles. But still only one new follower in months lol. Obviously I'm only doing it for the good of the forum and not because I'm getting a hummer.

You're trying to recruit new members through an interest in motorcycles??
For a forum that has more posts on the thread about Phillip Schofield's sexual orientation than the one dedicated to the Sepang tests??
Good luck with that!!

I've just spotted something.  Mind you I'm so gormless it might have been there from the beginning. |
