The First Donation .

[dyaoko]

so nice to see $180 donation from one of our members, Evin .

on the behalf of the KBU , I thank Evin .

by this money we can advertise for our NEWS-FORUM-BLOG on other places.for the first step, I think we must adverise our site on an iraqi famous blog.

we can advertise on peyamner too, but I prefer not to , because Peyamner's visitors are just Kurd, and Persian and Arabs
their English section isnt active , so we may just get some security agent's attention to our site than some Western Visitor.
KBU is based on connecting with West World, -as you see all of our sections are in English- and our visitors are supposed to be Westerns.

whats your suggestion for the first advertise? Iraq the model ? ...

THANK YOU EVÎN!


Medya I think it will be smart of you to put the commercial for KBU on one of these sites:

http://www.Kurdishmedia.com - This is an english only Kurdish new site... To attract intellectuals to KBU
http://www.Nefel.com - This is a Kurdish only site... To attract Northern Kurds to KBU
http://www.Kerkuk-Kurdistan.com - This is a KURDISH/ENGLISH/TURKISH/PERSIAN/ARABIC site -It has visitors from ALL over the middle east...
http://www.Kurdishinfo.com -This site is a FUNDAMENTALY PRO PKK site... To attract Northern Kurds... Its in several languages...
http://www.KRG.org - This is the site of the KRG - though I doubt they will allow for the commercial - it would be VERY good if people from there could come and read what people THINk and WANT

Further I do believe that it will be better to have a commercial that is saying South Kurdistan - rather than anything about Iraq...

those sites dont not accept advertise .

and advertisement should be smart , not emotional .

we must first decide who must read KBU news, KBU forum ?
whats our goal ?
for sure our visitors should be among those who read Iraqi Blogs but dont know anything about Kurdistan. thats the smartes choice.
not on Kerkuk-Kurdistan a KDP site. (+ a Party Based Site wont accept advetisement )

many many medias check Iraq The Model, if we put a logo on his blog "there is no NOrthern Iraq , it is Kurdistan ! Please dont offend to Kurds"...then we make our case more international
than advertising on Kurdish sites and show our sympotty to other kurds...that has no use ! we kurds already know our pains ...we need others to know about it.

I like it Medya... You should perhaps let people COME and SEE what it is... Don't write: Blogs /NEWS /FORUM.... You have to make people want to come and see - if they KNOW that it is a blog, maybe they aren't interested - if they see it is news maybe they are not ineterested if they KNOW it is a forum . maybe they DO come
