Recent Sing Company's discuz! X is about to be tested, a powerful integration platform covers the portal, forums, groups and SNS, from the webmaster feedback from all channels, most of the webmaster are eagerly looking forward to sing this new product launch, and many owners have also said that discuz! When x is online, upgrade your site. When most stationmaster is cheering, the clever stationmaster must do is re-examine own website localization and the operation strategy.
Community platform and service provider sing a new development of Cross-border community Platform discuz! X has been in the open beta recently, sing, Vice President Li Mingshun recently revealed that the first test is expected in March.
At present, the users who get the invitation can access the http://www.discuz.org discuz! x platform, the main columns are squares, groups and space. However, at present, click on the Home page, the official tip said "This function is being perfected, currently not open, first browse the square bar." ”
Some of the users believe that the platform provided by the service content and a network and Douban have a similar place. Login together with the net home can be seen, the top of the page provides my home, friends, groups and square columns. Douban top of the home has my watercress, group and other entrance.
Earlier, industry insiders pointed out that discuz! X will be a platform to integrate the most popular applications of the current Internet, but the platform does not currently offer the more popular microblogging service.
Last December, sing CEO Dai wrote about the product. "We are spending all our energy on a project that is code-named" Ultrax. It's hard to describe what this project is, and it may not have had a similar product until now. Because we ourselves can not use the existing concepts to accurately describe it, so inside we call ' x product '. ”
We know that the interactive web development today, from the beginning of the message, chat room to today's BBS, SNS, group Blossom, this is the network of users and content service providers to develop and grow together, in this process, the various theories about interaction, It has also generated a lot of successful websites based on various theories, from Sina of 1.0 to 2.0 of watercress, which embodies the wisdom and exploration of Internet practitioners. When web2.0 theory is just rising, many people have said that web1.0 will withdraw from the stage of history, but it has been proved that network users in the use of more advanced web2.0, web1.0 network experience is also helping people to get what they can. The same is true for forums, groups and personal spaces, and there is no substitute for each other.
From the application of each product positioning, personal space is the user's "private plots", in this space, blog or space, are users can manage their own content, whether it is the page style, background, music, components, users like a highly autonomous products. And the forum is more like a public square, site specification of some topics, guide users around the topic for discussion, because the face of the public, so the forum can update a lot of topics every day, and then by these topics to attract more users, and thus into a virtuous circle, of course, the concept of community operation, such as moderator's balance management, The gradual operation of the community, etc. also plays a very important role, whether a user like a forum, and the forum's theme, popularity and atmosphere have a direct relationship. Looking at the group, the group is a centralized community, we want to use the long tail theory to attract more users, and hope to improve the total popularity of the site. Because a user may be concerned about the music after discussing the movie.
Of course, this is the best case, can we stick to this best case?
In fact, while in functional positioning, forum and group there is no alternative relationship, but in the topic of the discussion, but there is a competitive relationship, originally a forum without a group of daily posts can reach 1000 stickers, increased the group, 1000 paste dispersed to 100 groups, directly diluted the topic of the site heat. At the same time, because the group product area separates the interest different user, this makes a community's operation difficult.
Successful operation of a website, is not to see the advanced level of the program, the site's operations, SEO, Word-of-mouth, user experience are equally important, not that today sing launched the discuz! X, tomorrow you will be the first to upgrade, at least you have to consider:
1.SEO level, the program after the upgrade of the URL changes, directory changes, title changes and dynamic page increase and so on.
2. Data trade-offs if discuz! X's User center data is really, as the official said, using Uchome data to import, then your forum User Center to do?
3. If you have plug-ins, even have a lot of money to buy Plug-ins, upgrade to discuz! After x must not continue to use, how do you choose?
4. Template, today we can already see discuz! x interface, the template has not inherited discuz7.2, also did not follow the uch2.0, do you want to recreate a template?
5. After the upgrade, your site in the search engine, is a large-scale revision, SEO afraid of what, toss! If your keywords are in the first, would you like to break the wrist general upgrade?
6. After the new procedures have just been opened, often faced with a variety of system vulnerabilities, you are willing to use their own site to gamble?
