Memphis Cycling

I chose to do my Media 2.0 project on the student organization I started here at the U of M. I already had a blog so I decided to revamp it, and link to other clubs in to other schools in different places that had successful cycling clubs. I chose to connect to these clubs via twitter and then link to them in a blog post.

I linked the blog to our Facebook page, Twitter, Google plus, and even posted about new blog entries on all these sites when a new one was written. The twitter has grown a little (I now have 7 followers!).

I posted on the blog things about the club, upcoming rides, etc. It worked in that I got people to come to some of the cycling club rides even though the weather was bad.

Links:

Blog

Promotion:

*Email list gathered from events we have had in the past was contacted about further events

*Posting on twitter and facebook

*Blogging and linking the entry to different social media sites

Stats:

7 followers on Twitter

187 fans on Facbook

6 followers on the blog

587 Pageviews (180 last month)

All in all I think this project has help lay solid ground for a social media network to be used by the Cycling Club.
