Default New Computers section : major flop?

I was just wondering that is this new section : http://www.indiabroadband.net/#computers a major flop or am I jumping onto conclusions too early?

I never see anyone viewing any of the sections there...

Is there anything we can do to improve it? Leather seats may be? or sorround sound?
Throw in a few bar dancers from Mumbai may be??

Suggestions please

Me too. . You are jumping in to conclusion too early.

My suggestion to improve the section is posting Tutorials (windows,photoshop, webdesigning etc) and more Step by step guides like the one gauviz posted.

It is not a flop but is not much of a success either.

Much as I love all those jokes, I would encourage posting in other sections too. I am not saying that jokes should not be posted. I also post jokes/off-topic threads here and then. But jokes and off-topic form 80% of the posting nowadays - a joke followed by "I like that" kind of post.

If this continues, forum will deviate from the main purpose and will become a site meant for laughter. Now I can promise you that there are lots of other sites that are dedicated to laughter/jokes and are much better than us at their own stuff. Our main traffic (new members) come to us because we provide excellent solutions.

We also know that there are not more than 40~45 active members who post regularly. So all active members should take more responsibility in contributing at least two-three meaningfull articles each day. That will attract us more traffic, get better google ratings, etc. Otherwise we will simply end up creating a huge offtopic section and patting each other on good jokes posted. I am sure that each and everyone of us have some speciality in some field. Let us hear your expertise. No need to be shy and feel intimidated.

No offence meant to anyone. Just my 2 cents. BTW, please keep the jokes but participate elsewhere too.

I don't think it's a flop but finally everything depends on the quality of threads, you know!

Actually, what I meant to write was 2~3 meaningful article per week not per day.

Per day would be quite challenging.

Yesterday you told me I can ride it.

BTW. I was wondering where should I start a thread if I like to post a guide on using a web service. (eg: "How to create a gmail account" or something similar). I mean in which section.

ya even i was watching this.. there are lot many crap useless threads on ... like thanking each other for completing no of posts.. jokes.. and all... tht all its ok but now a days ppl use these topics for displaying more no of posts posted.. thts what i feel.. admin should do somethin abt it..

regarding about softwares and solutions.. i agree.. ppl needs tips n triks.. solutions and tutorials..

one thing i would like to add... we can add some software downloads.. i know adming not going to agree.. in tht.. but now a days.. ppl come for tht.. basically.. tht will heat our site to much more extent i feel..

I guess each member should be allowed to post a certain number of posts/thread per day in jokes & humor section... This will curb the ever increasing no. there... Just an idea...
