|After a whole load of procrastinating [edit: smoking weed and listening to DnB] I finally got back on with the V4 project, and today it seems we are close to the new launch, I have added this article to demonstrate how news can be viewed and the format I would like to follow throughout the website for news and guest mixes.
You've more than likely been sent a link to this site by me "Tobes" to demo the layout and consider helping us out as a journalist, we really need your help, Itsooloud.com is a not for profit website originally launched in 2002, thats 9 years ago, in that time we have served hundreds of thousands of people with information about our favourite sub genre of Drum & Bass, some call it liquid, some call it intelligent, we prefer to use the term "Melodic" as this enables us to promote all great DnB that has a melody, we dont want to be pigeon holed now do we?
Some stats about Itstooloud.com
- We have 3339 members, and a huge amount of voyeur's!
- We recieve 500+ unique visitors a day
- At our peak we received up to 1 million hits in a month, this has dropped recently since we havent had any news displaying for some time, and thats a good reason for us to get this side of the website back up and running.
- We are No1 on Google for: Melodic Drum & Bass, Melodic Drum and Bass Forums, Intelligent Drum and Bass Forums.
- We are No4 on Google for: Drum and Bass Forums, right underneath the biggest DnB forums in the world.
- As silly as it sounds we are the 75,315 most popular website in the UK, it sounds ridiculous but do you know how many websites are out there.
- Independently estimated website value £25.000
So, what is this all about? Well,,, we need you! thats right you!... Journalists that are as passionate about Drum & Bass as we are, no this isnt a payed job, we never get payed so Im afraid theres no cash to pay you, but its more about being part of a family, and pushing our favourite sound further and further around the world, this is a wonderful platform for your words to be noticed. Have you listened to something great recently, get sent a lot of promo's, why not write about it and share your feelings?
Well, Ive waffled on for long enough, I hope youve been convinced and you want to be part of our small corner of the wwworld.
