I am a member of a number of modelling sites. Those I have found useful I have paid for an improved subscription. Those I have not found useful I have not paid for.

Currently I have sent out 4 mails so that I still have some credit left to be fully active. Of these one had a response which petered out. The lack of response from the others is understandable given that I could not tell how recently they last logged in, they might just be dead accounts.

The site seems to have definite potential. So I am not willing to abandon it quite yet, but since I am unlikely to be able to contact anyone for many months even if I log in every day, how am I ever going to work out if the site is worthwhile?

Increasing the activity points from logging in each day to 10 or 15 might help stop drift from the site. It would also encourage all members to log in more often. All of which would improve the use of the site and encourage members like myself to pay to support it.

sounds good.

but if you think realisticly

why would [*Link removed*] increase logging in points when people are paying?

I could see a slight increase, but not too much. The site still has to be profitable.

i've noticed i get +1 activity point for login, but you get only 1 point per day. if you click on logout and then login the same day, you won't get another point, so what you say is not true:dunno:

Chloe H.:

Because in order to get people to pay you need to show that the site is worthwhile. On the other modelling sites I am a member of, they offer more for free when you start. Once you get successful on the site you find the free offerings quite constraining and so upgrade to a paid membership.

The trick is getting the balance right.

With so many other sites out there, Jurgita has a lot of competition. If the 4 models I contacted don't end up leading to anything then I'd need to wait half a year before contacting anyone else and I'd probably think 'not worth it' to paying to upgrade (on most other sites I'd expect at least a reply from contacts).

The activity points system is different and I like it, I just think that currently the trial offering isn't really enough to tempt me to start paying and committing more to the site.

What worries me is that if other users come, use their 1.0 credit and vanish then that leads to a site with a high turnover which isn't as valuable to be a member of.

The suggestion I made would counter that and, I hope, encourage more subscribers.

I think the amount to get a credit should be lowered from 200 to something more plausible..

That would also make credits more achievable :)

The benefit of increasing the daily logon one, however, is that it encourages more checking of the site and so faster / more likely responses.

The sites I find useful I tend to support, in the hope they will continue to expand features :)

Also the benefits of a good site membership tend to be worth paying for :)

We are implementing the output of last logged-in date for accounts. Also, most of the accounts get notified by email about new messages. All emails are checked for validity during registration.

Great news... the two of those combined will make a big difference, though a method of knowing if email had been read of not would also be great :)
