December 14th, 2008

sbSecretBuilders.com has taken kids into a cultural and educational adventure and seems to have captured their imaginations - kids, parents and educators are all loving it.

To see how well SecretBuilders.com is doing, look at these statistics. Within 6 days of their Press launch:

  • they are now in 63 countries
  • ranked among the top 150,000 sites (up from 3.8 millionth two weeks ago)
  • daily registrations have gone from about 10 per day to 200+ per day; the blogosphere is picking up the site with great enthusiasm
  • Disney’s Virtual magic Kingdom fans have gone fanatic on secretbuilders : the special “I love VMK poster” they made has gone off the charts.
  • A lot of the growth is outside the USA (they were covered in about 8 Spanish publications) and they are really big in Italy (No. 2 country ahead of Canada and the UK).
  • Secretbuilders is in the process of setting up server presence in Europe and Hong Kong via Amazon’s cloud computing.
