Post World-a-Team Forum Gets Press Coverage!

The Spider Magazine is Pakistan's best selling monthly English Internet Magazine. In their March edition, they did features on the World Cup, and included in one of those was an article about the best blogs and forums on cricket on the web, my own blog Sundries, as well as World-A-Team both got mentions.

Check out the article here.

They've made a typo in the URL of my blog, but nothing wrong in the review WAT got. Impressive, no? I haven't been on here much, but it would be interesting to know if there has been a flurry of new memberships from Pakistan following the publication of this article, perhaps you guys can elighten me.

Another forum that is largely based on the lines of Cricket Web, the World-A-Team (WAT) forum mixes interaction with a difference. If you read it right, it is a forum where you discuss about the ‘A’ teams that come out of your respective countries. Apart from the A teams, the forum also allows you a free discussion on Test Cricket, with sub-forums dedicated to every test-playing nation. The one-day internationals (ODI) also follow a similar format. One of the areas where this forum differs from the rest is the presence of country-specific sections, to discuss a particular country’s cricketing affairs. Overall, it is a good forum to be a part of, and rant your patriotism to the biggest extent possible.


PS: Sundries is down for maintaince this weekend, that's why you get the blank page when you link on it. Should be back by Monday.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Zainub. Nice to get a mention considering the amount of cricket forums out there. Also nice to see your blog get a mention after all the effort you've put in to it. Let's hope both sites go from strength to strength.

We've had no new members listing their main team as Pakistan in March. We've had just 5 new members listing their main team as Pakistan this year and one listed their Location as USA and another listed their location as Canada.

The article hasn't generated any new memberships as far as can be ascertained.

The reviews in the spider magazine were a little too short.They should have put more content in it.Anyways,congratulations to both of you for getting your site mentioned and I wish you more luck in the future.
