I have been a member of the NING social site Smaller Indiana since it’s inception in late 2007. Since the birth of this site by Pat Coyle and Douglas Karr.. it has been growing by leaps and bounds!
Here are some stats from the 3,798 strong SmallerIndiana.com
Global Traffic year-to-date 2008:
- 313,242 Visits
- 158,425 Absolute Unique Visitors
- 1,832,007 Page views
90% of our traffic is from U.S.
Of all U.S. traffic, approximately 54% is from Indiana
Of all Indiana traffic, approx 53% is from Indianapolis
So far this year we’ve seen 193,970 visits from 453 Indiana Cities
The interesting stat is that 66% of the visitors are NOT from Indiana. Talk about a good way to get a state on the map!
Smaller Indiana is an amazing place to network and talk about Indiana as a major mover and shaker in the USA. I would encourage anyone who is thinking about starting a social network…
Go check out smallerindiana.com… it was done right.

Smaller Indiana certainly has a lot of opportunity and possibilities but it’s up to the users to determine the success.
