Hmm... we have had similar boards in this bulletin section. It\'s difficult to retain visitors in a website, that too for a website that neither provides a portfolio mgmt tool nor an email. Bulletin boards have not been recognised as the numero uno magnet for repeat visits. This website amazingly does it. I had written an elaborate analysis of this site Vs other city portals. Posted in the month of July, I reproduce the same.<br><br>\"Hello, I have been a great fan of this website. You guys are by and large doing a great job of putting content in a fresh form and style. But there is a small change in the overall format I noticed. You guys put out film reviews right on the homepage, why is it? Is it because you want to portray that films are by and large the prime mode of entertainment for Hyderabadis? What about other sections? Your education section still shows LFJC - I mean its been there since one whole year. What about the Indian School of Business? What about some important details of business importance for investors in Hyderabad? In fact I do run a modest website and I really know how tough it is to gather original content, and you are really into this and do it on a daily basis. You guys can feature interviews of some key people. It appears that fullhyd.com has been targeting visitors between 16 to 25 in general, and if people slightly older would want to visit would be for the classifieds etc. A website is art and technique all combined, and the most important aspect in a website is that \"Your company is what the site is\". I guess one of the most important reasons of fullhyd.com being a hit (as I gather by your bulletin boards) is that other hyderabad specific websites suck. khojhyd is good at giving news (not so important for gen public) and yes, very good looking models! But that any guy with a free website in geocities can do. Hamarashehar.com is like a newspaper. Lousy colour choice, with every link in the website present in the homepage. hydonline.com is the most static website i ever saw. hydandsec.com... where is it? reachouthyderabad.com - no one knows this website but I actually like it. Some good useful sections make it worth visit, but lacks the \"razmatazz\" that\'s there in fullhyd.com. hyderabadbest.com, one of the series launched by india-best.com, i guess... hmm... i forgot how it looks... it never loads fully! So we are pretty much left with fullhyd.com that delivers some relief and some good humour. Kudos to whoever comes up with so much of humour. Well, that\'s what is required in life i guess... humour. After all, it\'s the attitude that counts - whether it\'s a human or a website is not a matter of concern. The opinions expressed here are mine and fullhyd.com need not subscribe to those.\"<br><br>
