WalesCymru.com celebrates first three months
WalesCymru.com celebrates three months since going live, and what an eventful three months they’ve been.
We have been very impressed with the reception we have received and with the quality of information that has been added. Yes, there has been the occasional piece of ’self-promotion’ or advertising copy masquerading as a review, but that’s par for the course on the modern internet and most of these have been removed within hours. What is far more impressive is the 1500 businesses that have been added or claimed, the 10,000+ unique visitors and the growing number of genuine *positive* reviews posted by actual customers, outnumbering negative reviews by 20:1.
From our side we’re working on some outstanding issues, stepping up our Search Engine Marketing, and scoping a range of new features that we believe will greatly improve the quality of our presentation and the ease with which listings can be found and accessed. In all over 40 improvements are planned for release in the next three months, so if you haven’t done so already now might be a good time to check and if necessary update your listing.
In the meantime, at this three month anniversary, we’d like to take this opportunity to say ‘Thank You’ to our users - it’s you, after all, who will make this site into the community resource that Wales needs and deserves.
