Reply To: A Call to the Community to Post Deals

My suggestion would for you to stop posting deals, and just rely on the community. You’ve done plenty here for the community. Rest your weary bones, and just see what happens. 🙂

Now, I completely understand how you think that would motivate people, but unfortunately, it would be a disastrous move for a site like this that is drawing traffic almost completely based on the quality and frequency of the deal posting. If I were to quit posting with no plan in place, in all likelihood, MANY (okay, the majority) visitors would never return and the site would quickly go into decline.

Making a community like this work takes a ton of effort. Right now, I’m posting A LOT, but there’s not much of the community posting. So if I stopped posting, most people would certainly stop returning to the site. I can say that with a high degree of certainty. I would need to line people up and get the system operating before I could stop posting all of the deals.
