  Our Regional Group is discussing building a website. Our previous site was hosted by Hemmings and is no longer in use.
To the Clubs that have their own site, "Is it worth while?" and " has it attracted new members?".

  Paul,

We have had a website for years, https://nirgv8.org It really hurt when Hemmings stopped hosting. Unfortunately, website hosting is pretty pricey these days, so it is hard to determine worth. We happen to have a web server and host it ourselves at no cost to our RG.

We believe that we do get an adequate amount of traffic and have received quite a few new members from it.

  Thanks Ken, that's what we wanted to know. We found a host at a reasonable price, but wanted to know what other groups experienced.
Any other groups want to comment?

  Ken, The address you gave gets caught by my spam filter. Which RG are you in?

  Paul, try it once more, but omit the period at the end of the address. This is a very common mistake that happens all the time in copying down a link.
