My weekly update is a little earlier than usual this week as my partner is due to have an operation on their knee very early next Monday. As you can imagine we will be a little busy getting ready this weekend!

GenMates and Social Networking

Our Social Networking site for Genealogists continue to attract massive publicity with yet another interview being featured in the press. As a result membership continues to grow at a tremedous rate and we are seeing over 600 unique visitors per day! If you haven’t checked out GenMates yet then we look forward to seeing you there soon!

Talking of Social Networking we have a number of new sites planned for the coming year which I think you will find of interest - so as they say “watch this space” for more news!

Blogging

As you may be aware I have a number of very successful Niche Blogs and various subscribers have asked me recently if I have any information on how to Blog.

Did You See The News?

If you are in the UK then you cannot fail to have seen the news items on Obesity which is an increasing problem both here and in the US. Childhood Obesity in particular appears to be increasing massivly and is a real cause for concern for any parent. Given the issues that this is clearly causing we wanted to make our very popular Childhood Obesity ebook available to as many people as possible so have massively reduced the price for a limited time. Just click on Childhood Obesity and you can see what is covered and the advice it gives in dealing with the problem. I hope the limited time price reduction will help anyone who needs help with this problem the opportunity to grab a copy.

1911 Census Petition

Again we have been getting massive publicity for the 1911 Census Petition and in a short time we have well over a 1,000 signatures!

Our Genealogy and Scrapbooking Audio Articles are currently being developed as well as the informative Scrapbooking Blog! Add to that the Squidoo Lens that we have created at Scrapbooking Ideas and you can see that we are continuing to develop a while range of sites that meet your needs! if you have any ideas for new sites or additions that you would like to see then just drop me a line or leave a comment here!
