Longest subscribing active member?

No..this isn't spam Infact, I dumped my signature to do this post. I just thought this was kind of cool.

I was going back through the early days of when we opened our first pay site and found a guy that's been active since 3 weeks after we opened the site.

That's going on 4 years now - i'm beginning to think the guy may have died and VISA didn't notice

We had a few long time subscribers up to around 3 years when we dumped Ibill last year. Surprisingly one of the rejoined under Verotel and has been with us since.

I guess some people just become loyal or either that they get so used to accessing the site they cant bring themselves to stop.

I think a lot of this depends on how you regard your members and the service you offer.

Treat them like members of a club and you will keep them longer.

Treat them like cattle and maybe someone else will round them up.

I have many over 1 1/2 years with one sponsor. Had many with the same sponsor that were over 3 years when I sold a domain and recurring customers went with it 1 1/2 years ago.

I think some of these guys signed up with their business credit cards that get paid off every month by their secretaries and they probably just forgot to cancel. It is a nice bonus if you build up enough of those longtime rebills.

Not my longest but I had a guy that was a member for a year and a half or so and would write us nice emails about once or twice a month to say how he liked our site and put in requests or what not. A real friendly chap actually. So he then wrote saying he wished he could continue his membership but it was no longer in his budget. So I gave him another 6 months free. He was happy as a clam. :D

Our longest is 6 years, 2 months, 13 days and counting.
He still comes to the site too. It is not just his estate paying his visa bill.
