Hey folks,
September First will mark the two-year anniversary of 6mmBR.com | AccurateShooter.com .
This year we've added a number of features: Member Map,with range locations), interactive Event Calendar, Many more Cartridge Guides, Lots of new technical articles.
Since last summer, overall site traffic has doubled and Forum traffic has tripled.
But we need the site to continue to grow in order to reach a point where advertising/sponsor support is sufficient to make the editorial work self-sustaining, and to provide funds for additional product testing.
We've also considered actually opening an online store to sell products. The challenge here is that large retailers, such as MidwayUSA, can nearly always acquire products for much less than we can.
Anyway, I'm interested in hearing readers' views...
What topics would you like to see covered in the months ahead?
How would you like to see the site change/evolve?
What products would you like to see us sell direct to site visitors?
One idea we've been toying with is a membership--the "Accurate Shooters' Club". In return for an annual fee, members would have access to premium content areas, and would be given special discounts on products such as scopes, barrels, actions, and stocks.
Again, I solicit your comments about the Club idea. If this is successful we could raise money that could be used for some definitive testing of scopes, primers, and the like.
