Financial incentive, quality of contents, quality of engagement, usecases of the boards, smooth user interface, good community management, nice content moderation policies, speedy members redressal mechanism, community spirit, etc are the parameters a new prospect will look into before joining a particular network. The question we need to ask ourselves is whether BBS Network fulfills the criteria to attract new users into its fold. For me, the network does fulfil what's genuinely needed to become a success in the future.

The earning model and the vision of the BBS Network is a good one, and it is our duty as beneficiaries to become advocates for the network in order to create more awareness among its non-users. For this there is an urgent need to utilize our social capital effectively. What we lack is now is a good rate of growth in terms of membership.

The much anticipated release of the app in addition to implementation of various promotional activities by the brains behind the project might help solve the issue. If it doesn't, then we will be needing another serious reset in strategy again.
