trouble is, as you know, at least 90% of the people in our area angus (strathclyde), don't even care for the fact they have a mini, its either just a company car/a to b car, ive flashed every mini i pass and i've yet to recieve a wave/flash back!

To be honest i know 1 or 2 mini owners and they are complete bell ends, wouldn't want their sort on here anyways, it's a risk you take posting the fliers about though isn't it.

there is 100's of Minis up here @ Inverness

some you can tell they love their car but not seen anyone on here.

I think if anyone who has a Mini and wants to find out about Forums car clubs etc etc will come on to the Internet looking to see what is out there.

Don't know what you need to put in for searching on google but I've yet to find NMS was directed here through Mini2.

IMHO we need more internet exposure I think.:I

I think you might be right, the site is a lot quieter than it used to be. Need some fresh blood.

Perhaps a name change www.newminiuk.co.uk :p;)

well if we have sponsors and donations.

Can't see why it would be a problem to get it higher up on the search engines.


Come on mods what do you do in this area explain it to me.:I

umm what search criteria have you been using?
Go to Google, type in New, Mini and Scotland and it's the first result..
type in mini and Scotland, it's the second result... but NOT if you add the word 'forum' to the search... :p:p:D:D

see so you've answered your own question.:blackeye: I was putting forum in:) but you see that's the trouble why would anyone enter Mini and Scotland without adding the word forum or car club etc etc.:question::)

I've always got a nice wee supply of fliers in the car ready to hand out :D More exposure for the site would be great and the likes of Arbroath and the NMS stand at Fast and Modified in July can only help :approve:;)

It sure will ,and I have thought about putting an ad in the local papers, ie Mini Show Day at Strathclyde park ,just to get some local interest and get as many cars there as possible ,show off the cars and advertise NMS, as Ive said before, you must be looking at 2-3000 minis sold in this are alone .
