John Barresi Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 Out of the roughly 24,000 unique visitors that come to Kitelife every month, only 154 are official Kitelife subscribers... This is amazing considering that we see over 120 Gigabytes in downloads and 500,000 pages viewed every month! I would have you consider the enormous and long-standing benefit that Kitelife has to offer, and how often you actually visit the site... Most of the fliers we talk to at events around the country admit to logging on at least once or twice a day, many of them specifically for our video archives (the largest of it's kind in the world). No other publication or organization has taken a direct and specific interest in featuring the various personalities within sport kiting, sharing information and most importantly, archiving it's history by way of interviews, articles and videos. Also worthy of mention are the out of print publications we've been able to put on the web for our readers, Stunt Kite Quarterly (published from 1988 to 1993 - 14 issues) and Kitelines (published from 1977 to 2000 - 50 issues)... We have others in our sights, and will keep pursuing other historic periodicals for reprint as we have time. On any given month, Kitelife receives between 10-30 calls and emails from various newspapers, magazines, publishers, TV production companies, schools, kitemakers and fliers seeking information or old friends... For the most part, we serve as an active nexus where people in need are connected with those who can help them. Long term benefits aside, here is what subscribers receive directly: Entry into prize drawings every 4-6 weeks, average $150 prize value. Uninterrupted access to main video archives, normally closed during high usage. Access to exclusive "members only" video and photo section. 100MB of photo storage in the Kitelife PhotoFile galleries. Special subscriber signature on the Kitelife Forum. Seasonal discounts with select advertisers. For $2.95 a month, we truly believe that these items and our ongoing projects are quite a value indeed! For about 9 cents a day, you can personally help ensure our continued growth and improvement... Plus, you get access to a bunch of cool stuff. If kiting is in your blood, you know what I'm saying, and you feel it... Sign up today! http://www.kitelife.com/subscribe/ Thanks for reading!
