Also I am not implying or suggesting anything, just be careful with your facebook budget.

The bulk of our budget is in Google Adwords.  But I appreciate the heads up.

That's cool and all.
But you should still get a web designer to redo the official site.

Would you be happier if we went with a single page download website similar to litecoin.org?

well not necessarily.
I was thinking about something like the novacoin site.
I don't like that coin, but they do have good web design.

Fair enough.  I will definitely upgrade the site to some serious eye-candy after our project release later this month. 

Just an FYI, Balthazar knows his stuff...I wouldn't want to bet against or underestimate NVC.

http://cryptogenicbullion.org/services linked form your article is 404. Seems someone forgot the .html, maybe you should set up a re-direct or url-rewrite the url server side.

Ah, thanks.  I'll fix it now.

[mercSuey]

I'm actually curious, since there's been mention of making the website prettier, if anyone is interested in the job, please submit your resume/portfolio and how much will your services cost us.  email me at info@cryptogenicbullion.org

No guarantees on a job offer, but I think it's a great thing to get the crypto community involved and to support the people who are supporting us and/or this industry.

EDIT:  If I get a lot of portfolio submissions then I'll make a separate thread and make it an official announcement.

Hello everyone,

Apologies for not being on here more frequently.  We're just exceptionally busy with project development, among other things.  We have rearranged our marketing budget and put more emphasis on Google Adwords, and consequently decreased the Facebook budget.  We have noticed a much stronger correlation between Google Adword clicks and CB price action on Cryptsy, so we wanted to reinforce that correlation.  The marketing budget is still on pace to exceed $2000 per month.  

In case you missed it, we had some PR crossing the wires last week.  Here's the Yahoo News link.  Very exciting for the CB community!   http://finance.yahoo.com/news/rare-interest-bearing-bitcoin-alternative-091800738.html



We have captured the top ad spot for http://www.cryptonerd.co and we wish good luck to pr9me with his new cryptocoin news service.

We have renewed the top ad spot for http://cryptocoinsnews.com and they have recently remodeled much of their site.  Check it out if you haven't already!  

These services are so important for the industry as they are, and will be, the main sources of information for everyone and anyone interested in crypto currencies/commodities.  I hope many more sprout up, each with their own niche.  I definitely feel the market economics of this media space could support many players.


We have received Swedish and Turkish translations of http://CryptogenicBullion.org and we'll implementing them this week.

That's all for now.  Please don't hesitate to pm me or elambert if you have any questions or concerns or ideas.

Greetings!

Some updates:

We welcome coingas.com and cryptosextoys.com to the CGB family!


We are also looking forward to picking our partnership winners at year's end, announced here first:   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=295534.msg3171405#msg3171405


Client update imminent, with checkpoint update, among other things...


Marketing update:

We decreased our Facebook budget and consequently increased our Google Adwords budget.

Google adwords saw record clicks this week, with yesterday breaking the 1000 clicks mark.



Facebook likes continues to be steady at about 100 per day and we're about to reach the 8000 mark.



Subsidy halves in less than two weeks.  I thought it'd be sooner but the rate of blocks slowed a bit since my last calculation.  

Project development continues and we're hard at work to change the paradigm of what it means to be a virtual commodity/currency.  More details to follow in the next few weeks.


Cheers!

-Merc

Great update Merc! We continue to make progress. So much work to do...

[No_2]

Are there any plans to petition Vircurex or BTC-E to get CGB onto their exchanges?

[Sustainable]

I am fiending for updates!

Not at this time, but we leave that to the community.

I can assure you we will continue to reach out to these entities privately and most importantly work at insuring CGB's security, improvements, innovation and advertising. This will help to keep the pressure for continued adoption of CGB.
