Help Trailsnet Build a Network of Trails
Beginning on May 14, 2015, Trailsnet.com began accepting donations to help build a network of trails on the internet. Check out the awesome “Donate” button at the top of the right-hand column on this (and other) Trailsnet page(s). Running a not-for-profit website takes a lot of time and resources. Running a professional-looking trail website takes even more resources. Up until now, all of the expenses associated with Trailsnet have come out of the pockets (bank accounts, credit cards) of Trailsnet’s founder. Believe me, that is a very limited pool of resources and funding. (-:
Where Do Your Trailsnet Donations Go?
Here is a list of just some of the areas where Trailsnet will be able to utilize your generous contributions:
- Website development – Let’s make this page look professional and function smoothly.
- Video tutorials – Trailsnet could sure use some professional-looking video tutorials to help people learn how to add trails and find new trails.
- New logo – I know. We all love the current Trailsnet logo. But, unfortunately, it is a little dated and not very inclusive. It’s great if you’re a trail biker, but we have to remember our hiking, inline skating, trail-running and equestrian buddies, not to mention all the other PTVs Trailsnet has vowed to include.
- Crowd-funding campaign – When it’s time to make the big leap and totally redesign the website, we’ll need a campaign to raise funds and to increase our visibility. Once again, a professional-looking video overview would be nice but a bit costly.
- Trail conventions – So far, Trailsnet has had very little visibility among trail professionals. So, in essence, Trailsnet is invisible to those who need to see it the most. It’s time for a Trailsnet presence at trail symposiums, conventions and other gatherings of trail movers and shakers, both domestically and internationally.
