KickApps Reports on Progress and Launches Yuku Message Board App
NY-based KickApps is reporting some metrics for their white-label social networking tool today. This comes just a few weeks after the launch of their 3.0 release.
The reported stats include: a quarter of a billion monthly page views, 8+ million unique visitors per month, 10+ page views per visit on average, 14,000+ KickApps enterprise deployments and clients reporting up to eight-times return on investment after only two months.
One of the services that CEO Alex Blum discussed with me on my last visit to their offices was a message board product they acquired named Yuku. Today they are announcing the full launch of the Yuku service. Blum was very excited about the opportunities to innovate in the message board space after seeing a stagnant market for years. I’d agree with him, we’ve seen a bit of innovation with tools like Tangler but the market is still dominated by mostly Web 1.0 boards Vbulletin and phpBB.
