If you look closely to the stats you will notice that some countries have more EBT-ers as others. Why is this? The answer is very simple. Go and have a look at the press section of EBT. Mediacoverage is very important to get bigger and more succesfull. So I was thinking, what can we do? Well, the answer is simple again: get some mediacoverage. I think the timing is perfect. Media don't have much news in the summer. So why shouldn't we help them out with telling them our story? I'll bet the chances are very high that they will print it, because of lack of newsitems. And the positive about it is, that people have vacation so more time to read their paper!!!!
So let's all work together and get some newscoverage. Here's what to do.
1. Go to this site ( http://www.onlinenewspapers.com/ ) and pick your country. Try to find an emailadres of the headeditor or editorial-team.
2. Send an email with subject: Press Information Kit Eurobilltracker. This will get their attention and don't trow your mail in the thrashcan right away.
3. Tell them how wonderfull EBT is and how succesfull we really are. (Example for email below)
4. After you have send an email/emails, post here which media you have contacted so that we don't spam over and over the same newspapers + you can claim the article if it's in the newspaper!
What is in it for you? Eternal thanks from EBT-er who get hits and since you are picking newspapers/media from your country, your chances for a hit will increase dramatically.
I bet if everyone who reads this sends only one email, it will get us a bunch of articles
