AS Performance advertising
Hi just a quick note to say we will no longer be officially advertising on SN (mainly due to the decline and therefore value for money of forum advertising) and therefore the AS Performance user name will cease to be able to be accessed.............
please contact the office direct for any queries / orders having been established for over 20years we will still continue in the "real world" simply we wont be able to respond on here :thumb: 0191-4103770 / www.asperformance.com |
That's a shame. Sad times.
Will you still be on here under a private user name? |
When will the new website be up and running ?
|
Yea why not just open a private account on here so your still visible and can answer any questions.

Facebook is killing forums. Sad to see as you see the same questions being asked when it’s all here. |
That’s a real shame. Always found the informative posts very valuable. It has really put the business on the map for me. |
How much is It to advertise on here for the year ? |
100% agree social media fragments "clubs" into small reginal areas,
AS have always been so helpful in the past, but understand a sign of the times.tony |
Oh alyn tried to ring you this week, totally forgot last week. ill bell you after bank holiday;) |
Simple thing is Alyn is a proven provider of quality goods at a quality price with great service and advice why go anywhere else it doesn't matter to me personally that he is stopping advertising on here his number is in my phone and when goods are ordered they are at my door the next day what more can you ask for period.

Alyn, it matters not that you won't be advertising on here, you weren't when I got my car 13 years ago. People will always still recommend you, like they did then. Word of mouth is a more powerful advert, than paying any fee, IMHO. |
Stockcar could always make a comeback.

Forums are dying everywhere still look at scooby net every week but very little new information loosing photobucket as it’s simplicity was the death for many posts as it so easy to post on Facebook now facebook isn’t as good for project threads and information disappears down to quickly which we find on a couple of car groups I’m in Facebook advertising is massive now and very cheap I have 10k followers and 20 messages a night for the business I run I used to spend 20k + advertising 20 years ago now £3 boosts an avert Alan is well established and respected in the community so why continue supported scooby net |
"Alyn" was on here long before AS Performance started advertising and always has been.............
this is purely a business decision that the £500+ per year fee is simply not justified given the falling membership we always did and continue to supply good quality goods & services for good value for money and 'deal' pricing / 0191-4103770 |

I dont do Facebook but i have Alyn's phone number. Thats all you need.
|
As the late great Bob Hoskins once said...
It's good to talk :) |
And when they all are Facebook will start charging.

I'm not using facebook and will do whatever I can to keep my favourite forums alive and hope others will too. But I fully understand the decision when it costs that much.
|
When that time comes I wish we could buy the website. If there not making enough on advertising they will close it.

Yeah everytime I search anything on google, a lot of the link first links are all too scoobynet. Never social media.

Trade or private? About £12 private. Trade varies depends if you just want a trade account or advertising aswell. Which means your company gets advertised on all the forums owned by the company.

I look at Scoobynet out of habit, in reality it gives me nothing tangible or useful in terms of a 'resource' for Subaru owners.
Sad but true. Quite the opposite actually, the trend will find enthusiasts moving back to forums due to the quality of content. User groups on facebook have all sorts of riffraff more and more people are heading back to the forums. |
I am no longer on Facebook but use twitter and Instagram. Posts get so lost I honestly don’t know how they can compete with forums. Hopefully it will phase out and the forums will return. Plenty of good info stored on here |
I still find Scoobynet very useful. It's great for problem tracing and still helpful for getting people's experiences and opinion and tips. Hope it's going to be around for a bit longer. |
I still find it useful aswell. So be honest there use to be a lot of trolls on here, but they've all gone now which is good. Use to get them on all the time.
Lost a lot of breakers, only Matty left now. Use to have Darren, poor customer service but cheap parts. |
