April 26, 2008 - NewReleaseTuesday.com (NRT), a Christian music, social and entertainment mega-site, has welcomed their 7,500th NRTeam Member since relaunching the site in July of last year. The NRTeam continues to attract passionate Christian music fans from around the world, giving them the ability to grow the site’s content in multiple ways and connect with each other through a unique and growing Christian social network.
NRTeam Members have pushed the site to incredible new heights, adding 1,500 Christian music artist profiles, 5,000 Christian album details, over 5,500 Christian album reviews and an astonishing 36,000 Christian song lyrics. Members have also written over 2,900 blogs and there are over 15,000 posts in the community forum.
In March of 2008, NRT expanded its reach into Authors and Books allowing NRTeam Members to build an entirely new database on NRT. Just under 200 Christian author profiles have been added along with 650 books and just under 200 book reviews. More focus and integration of this new database will continue in the coming months.
The long anticipated Christian Music Video database was also recently launched and the NRTeam community has fully embraced the concept, adding and archiving over 750 videos in just two weeks from popular video sharing sites like GodTube.com, YouTube.com and MySpaceTV.com.
“NewReleaseTuesday.com is one of the few sites that allow its’ members to submit content and be rewarded in the process,” explains NRT founder, Kevin McNeese. “It’s that unique combination that has allowed us to become one of the largest online databases for Christian music in just under 9 months. With the addition of our Christian authors & books database, alongside our Christian music video database, I’m excited to see us moving to a complete entertainment site and our community has responded with massive results.”
Traffic to the site continues to increase month after month and NRT has enjoyed record growth, welcoming over 100,000 unique visitors in a single month for the first time in February 2008. To continue that rate of growth, NewReleaseTuesday.com is planning continued expansion to the site and improving existing functionality.
“Like any quality site, we must continue to evolve to remain relevant, exciting and fresh to our existing members,” continues McNeese. “We have many enhancements planned in the coming months that I can’t wait to announce and they will continue to define NewReleaseTuesday.com as a leading Christian entertainment website.”
One of those enhancements is the recently launched promotion that gives members an opportunity to win a XBOX 360 gaming system, one of the hottest electronic devices available. By incorporating the NRTeam Points system, members can invite friends and family to sign up for the NRTeam.
New members who are invited will get 25 bonus points immediately while giving their friends who referred them 10 bonus points. In July of 2008, the user who has invited the most NRTeam members to the site will snag the XBOX 360 system. Membership to the NRTeam is 100% free. Contest details are at http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/nrteam_referral.php.
“This promotion relies on the strength of NewReleaseTuesday.com’s unique features,” continues McNeese. “We are taking the random drawing contest a step further by not only rewarding the most active member, but also rewarding those who sign up and everyone who invites others to the site. With free prizes starting at just 25 NRTeam Points, everyone has an opportunity to get something at NRT. No other site online rewards their members for everyday activity like we do.”
In fact, NRT has already shipped over $5,000 of merchandise and free prizes at no cost to its members. With autographed CDs, t-shirts, stickers, key chains, books and more, the NRTeam Points system has become the driving force behind everything NRT is doing.
It’s just one of the many ways NewReleaseTuesday.com is continuing to create a unique and dynamic online experience while changing how Christian music fans interact and gather information.
http://www.NewReleaseTuesday.com was launched in August of 2002 and offers the most complete and up-to-date listing of upcoming releases online, exclusive artist interviews, commentary from a variety of columnists, weekly New Christian Music PodCasts and the latest in Christian music news. It is also the home to the NRTeam, an online music community that maintains the largest online database of Christian artist and author profiles, album reviews, song lyrics, music videos and more.
