How Can we promote the Ryanair Fan Club?

What ideas do we think guys? We need to try to market the website. Has any such marketing taken place already?

Yeah that's a good question, a few weeks ago I put a link on every wikipedia page, so where are on there! Except the german version of wikipedia, they won't accept it. They keep removing it, but I keep on putting it on there.......

Maybe anybody else more ideas?

Good job! Maybe on other forums or something?

I discovered this website by typing "Ryanair fan" on Google search. "Ryanairfanclub" appears first, at the top of the list.

try put some funds on google adwords

cheap websites are not working such well as cheap airlines

Funds? we have no funds!!

is there a possibility to put banner on the website? I got experience in dealing with advertising agencies and may try to arrange some companies to pay for banner. From such funds we can pay for google adwords to attract more visitors

Try to see if the Ryanair magazine could write something about the Ryanair Fan Club.

Why not create a Bebo or MySpace, these sites have millions of people registered and this is a quick way to get people onto the site. Asda has a fanclub on there so why not create a Ryanair page on there...

ryanair magazine would be great. that's even good for FR to have a fan club.

Try to propose a link in ryanair official page...
Try to ask ryanair responsible to answer/read question, suggestions and feedbacks of this forum

For those of us who know how to play the system, and have figured out how to get hold of those elusive 1 euro fares without paying a cent extra, FR is great. Much of Europe however thinks that FR is lousy - and for good reason !

You might like to put some *subtle* postings on airliners.net - it's where many of the airplane nerds hang out on the web. Could also try sending a gentle email to some of the main airplane blogs around the web in the hope of getting a mention in a daily posting or two - have a look at something like crankyflier.com
You might also like to contact some of the travel blog sites - like jaunted.com or eurocheapo.com

It might also be worth sending a few emails to news organisations - e.g. BBC. If they mention this website, it'll probably be something like 'For all those of you who have a loathing of MOL, here's something you won't want to see... ryanairfanclub'
However, as MOL seems to think, any publicity is good publicity. If people with websites of collections of (unused) airline sick bags can get themselves publicised, then anyone can !

and there is a chapter about the Ruinair Fan Forum in my next book ....

RFC is now referenced on :

Create a PayPal/Moneybookers [free] account and put a "donate button"...this is the best way to gain money for keep alive the site [...and create future fanclub stickers to apply on our baggages].

For promote the fan club, I also thought to build a free Youtube channel, where put videos made with our pictures...videos of our future meetings and something similar...and parallel it's possible to create fanclub banners, like this...



...for free-exchange with other websites.

What do you think about?

Banners seems good. I also was thinking about stickers. It's normal procedure with young movement promoting their activity to do stickers and paste it in public places like trams or buses. It's usually on the end gently putted around the doors. I know it's some kind of vandalism, but youngsters activision usually are interesting and no money are involved in it. All I was thinking about is to put some stickers on somewhere on airports where travellers may see it and refer to our site after they come back. And it would be some kind of sign - "we were here"

A small article in the Ryanair Magazine would be cool!

I agree...but I don't know if publish an article on Magazine it's free or under payment.

...........we do not need people going around putting Ryanair stickers all over the place ! JK

Why not?

...........because it IS a ' kind of vandalism ' and I would say that the group does not need to be associated with that type of activity ! JK

we could put a Fan site sticker with our web site address on our carry on baggage (no more than 10 kgs) so that all other passengers on flights and in airports would see it and join up .....

.................on carry on baggage - that's an excellent idea ! JK

This was the original beautiful idea about the stickers, Globemaster.

Someone know if it's possible to let a sticker into the Youth Hostels or in the B&Bs?

This was the original beautiful idea about the stickers, Globemaster.

Yes, I know, and that idea has been emphasised (twice). The suggestion to put stickers anywhere and everywhere, without permission, is not the way to go ! - end of..... JK
