Aspects of the article that are no longer true (as of 2017)
First of all I'd like to state that I have a conflict of interest as I am the marketing manager of the company, therefore I can not edit the page myself and would like to ask an impartial editor to judge where changes are needed. The issue is that the page was written years ago and some of the information is not correct.
Incorrect facts
- 'serving the United Kingdom as a paid service and the United States as a free service' => the service is available worldwide in select cities, the UK and New York City in the USA are both paid locations, everywhere else it's free
- 'It celebrates the full rollout of its new credits-based system across all platforms, making users pay to read messages or participate in socials' => the credits system was abandoned at the end of 2013 and removed from the site, premium features are only available by purchasing one of the available subscriptions in the locations where the service is paid
- Citysocializer’s premium service starts at £12.99 per month via the Web, or £3.99/week through an in-app purchase => weekly subscriptions have been removed, you can only buy 1 month or 3 month rolling subscription plans, the cheapest monthly plan starts at £14.99
Comments
- The website has very few active users. => I am not sure what 'very few' means as a number, there are over 4000 active subscribers, and an average of 95 thousand monthly visits from users to the website
- few of which still have active communities => this sounds to me as if the website is in decline, like it was active before but few are still active. London is extremely active (multiple socials per day) other cities are not, some come and go and after the rollout to america, the activity there is rising.
- London has less than 500 active users => London has just over 2000 subscribers actively going out, and about 10 thousand users checking the site weekly to check what socials are taking place, this is obviously info I know because this is my job so I'm not sure how this would best be treated
- Membership demographics vary from ages 18 to 50 => members go up to late 60s but the average age is 25-40
- The website hosts monthly group socials => this is a bit confusing, the website is a platform that users can create socials on their own and most of the content is user generated, there are some members who are selected to be official hosts who get free membership in exchange for hosting 2 socials per month, citysocializer also hosts Mixer socials every few months in the bigger cities, hosted by hosts or company employees (the latter mainly in London, where the company office is located)
Please judge and amend as you see fit. Thank you very much for taking the time to do this :)
