Seasons Greetings From EzSitez

I’m fast running out of time, so I’m making this a single update for Members of all our sites… so my apologies if you get a couple of copies over the next day or so as the newsletters go out for each individual website.

First up I want to thank everyone for their continued support over the last twelve months. We’ve had a big year, launching two new sites, EzBanEx and EzTraffic, and completing major updates on EzBanners and EzHitzs, as well as some important behind-the-scenes work on EzAdz and AdCardz. The updates do seem to be never-ending sometimes, but it’s definitely made easier with the support and encouragement we get from the Members.

2025 is already shaping up to be a busy and productive year as well…

We’ve got a major update of the EzCryptos site ready to release in the new year. With all things crypto heating up right now, the organic traffic through that site has ramped up significantly and we really had to move things along there. So we’ve fast-tracked the release a bit, and we currently have some off our Pro Members in there testing it all out for us, with a re-launch scheduled for the second week of January. It’s all looking good and the feedback had been quite positive, so I’m itching to get it out there before the crypto markets really go bananas!

The push to get that done meant the update to the EzHitzs marketing pages and linking system has gone on hold for a bit. It is quite close, but given the number of members we’ve got now, we decided to rework a number of the pages, so when we roll out the update you’ll be able to do your part once and be done. That should be done by the end of January… though with the changes we’ve made to EzCryptos, I’ve got a few ideas that might work even better on EzHitzs…

We’ve also got some work to do on EzAdz as well. One of our Members kindly went through the entire Traffic Site list and removed those that are no longer available so we’ll be updating that as well. With the Wet Season well and truly on us now, that will be a good one for the next weekend where the rain doesn’t let up and the office air-con is the only place to be!

There’s a few changes coming to EzClix as well. The monthly contest format has been causing a bit of confusion… and a few Members have been spending much more time on it that was ever intended… so we’ll be trying something new in February. We’ve also been quietly moving more of our budget from cheaper/higher-volume sources into some more expensive traffic where we don’t the same volume, but the quality is noticeably better.

AdCardz will be one of the major projects for the year. We’ve been making minor updates and additions since it launched… just on 6 years ago now… and while we’ve had some fairly major overhauls of the Member’s Area, the whole site is really overdue for an update. The underlying tech has changed significantly in that time, and there are a lot of areas where I know we can improve the function and effectiveness of it… and make it look a bit more modern!

And finally, somewhere in amongst all that, there’s one project I’ve been itching to get to for a while now…

That is to set up a single EzSitez Dashboard for you to manage all your different EzSitez website accounts. We actually have this set up for the Admin side of things (which is probably the only thing keeping all this manageable!) and I’ve long thought it would make life easier for a lot of our Members as well, since so many use multiple EzSitez.

The idea would be to show you which sites need attention at any given time, some basic stats for each site, and a single interface to manage your referral links across all sites… so if you refer a person to one of our sites, you’ll also get the referral if they go on to use any of the others.

OK, that’s the big picture plan for 2025!

No doubt the specifics will change as life gets in the way, but the end goal is to ensure you have a set of websites you can use to grow your online business, however you see fit. And for us to keep making those sites easier to use and more effective for you.

Right now though, I’m heading off for some time with family over the holidays, so I’ll be out of the office for a couple of weeks. We’ll have a couple of people monitoring the Helpdesk and email throughout that time, but we won’t be online quite as much, so please allow 24-48 hours or so for a response. (The Helpdesk will get priority!)

And that’s about it for now. I want to wish everyone a safe and happy time over the holidays, and look forward to a busy and productive 2025!

Regards

Brad
