BuddyBoss and PeepSo are multifunctional, and if you look at the demo sites, you'll see that they all have pretty much set formats.
To put it simply, it's Facebook.
However, if you can do this and that, it becomes difficult to know what the core of the site is, it is difficult for the operators to manage, and users cannot use it well. That is the general public. There are systems and plugins with amazing functions, but I have hardly seen any cases where they are used successfully.
is a prime example.
I have yet to see an example of it being used effectively or functioning properly.
Therefore, I think that the key is to not use all of the functions of BuddyBoss or PeepSo, but to specialize in only a few functions, or to highlight those, while casually noting that the other functions are also there.
There is a website like this.
I think it's a site where you can search for hobby clubs all over Japan.
Ah, this was helpful as it made me realize that I can use the "group" features of BuddyBoss and PeepSo in this way.
The "group" feature is the core of BuddyBoss and PeepSo, but I wasn't sure how to make the most of it. I thought that "groups" and "forums" were the same thing, but you can also incorporate "forums" into "groups" and customize them to make groups searchable.
With a little ingenuity, it seems possible to create something similar to the circle site above.
Membership sites are closed, only members can view them, and they are invitation-only or approval-based. It's very much appreciated that they do this, but unless there is a very core community, no one will come if they are so closed.
So, I mainly use the "group" function of BuddyBoss and PeepSo.
If we stop inviting and accepting members as mentioned in the article and allow anyone to join, it would be possible to create a portal site for a certain hobby club.
It seems possible to make things like this.
I don't know much about it, but it seems like there are a lot of core communities with similar hobbies, so the "Group" function seems like it would be useful in such situations.
And if we can make good use of the "group" feature, I think that integrating the event feature and other features will come into play. By charging for events, it will become a profitable site.
The main feature is the "members" feature, allowing users to meet and deepen their connections while also using the event feature, which is essentially the same as a dating site (app).
