The Bestnaija Idea was a simple one: to connect and inform.
The road has been rough all along. But according to the saying:
When you are almost gonna give up, think about why you started in the first place.
I cannot but think about all the loyal members who have believed in Bestnaija. Congratulations to us all. This is just the beginning.
Expect speed now! Happy 10th anniversary!
Look at the numbers:
Our 14,797 Besties have shared 118,756 messages in 43,866 topics plus 1263 total photos. Bestnaija was founded on June 28th, 2010, 1:30 pm. Do the maths, it was 10 Years ... ago.
I thank all the 14,797+ besties who stick around to make this place alive. But we must recognize major ones who have stood out to support. I do not need to mention names. You know yourselves.
Many things have evolved
From being just a simple forum for mere topics and replies, the following show the evolution path taken by our community to become an almost one-stop-for-all networking and informative community.
1. The βcoins system (Still evolving rapidly)
2. The Galleries (Evolving too) - expect speed
3. The Besties system (Only people you accept can see and follow your activities)
4. The #BRC (Referral contest): very rewarding and evolving fast
5. The Blog: Only original contents go here. Highly rewarding and quality
6. The FrontPage Opinion Polls (Simple yet powerful ways of sharing your opinions on trending matters and also see those of others)
7. The #MyPage (Very interactive user profile networking system)
8. The #Spotlight!
9. Random Quotes - very motivating!
10. The Groups and Clubs
11. And many more, and more to come.
Truth is... Bestnaija is moving forward and the promise we can make is that WE ARE HERE TO STAY!
Thank you all.
