Specialized Groups Get More Out of Building Their Own Social Networking Sites.
Despite their popularity, many well-known, sharing-based web platforms are limited. Flickr lets friends view photos, but doesnt offer much in the way of conversation, whereas chat rooms look archaic, with an non-concise layout that doesnt support photos. And its hard to filter friends and impossible to categorize them based on interests on Facebook.
Thats why clubs, associations and groups of all sorts are creating their own social networking sites with SocialGO. Within minutes, anyone can build their own site, taking one of SocialGOs many templates and customizing it to fit their needs.
The English Lake Hotels, one of SocialGOs thousands of customers, used their site to hold a photography and filmmaking contest. By adding widgets that eased the photo and video uploading process, people could apply without hassle, while learning about their companysomething they were unable to do with Facebook or Flickr.
Another company, INsight, built a site for their TV talk show, allowing viewers to choose the content they want to see. With SocialGOs platform, they were able to add features like video chat, chat rooms and instant messaging.
Other groups who used SocialGO built sites based on their interests. One organised a Michael Jackson tribute, where fans could get together and share pictures, videos and experiences. Supporters of the Queens Park Rangers football club have reached out to more than 800 fellow football lovers on their We R QPR website. Even a church has built an online congregation with SocialGos services.
As more people reject the unspecialized services of traditional social platforms, the trend of building personalised networking sites is sure to only gather steam.
