About

  

 

This site was originally created at the end of 2007.  Initially I created a very basic site so that I could start to catalogue my ever growing Belinda Carlisle record collection.  The site started with a basic layout with all the releases for each title being included on one single page.   I never thought anyone would really look at the site and I only ever thought that I'd use the site to document the items in my collection.

I had originally decided to catalogue my collection on-line after viewing similar sites that Madonna collectors had set up for their own collections.  My main inspiration being that of the Madonna collector Anna-Clare and her site www.annaclare.com   Looking further on-line I found other record collectors with similar sites all around the world.

So in 2007 this site was launched to no major fanfare!

   
       

 

   

The first change to the site layout came after about 6 months when I gave each individual release it's own page which allowed images to be larger and each format and title easier to locate.

With the exception of a couple of banner changes and a change from blue and white to black and pink the site continued mainly unchanged.  Although I did now add a section for the Go-Go's releases that I had.

In March 2009 Belinda appeared on the USA television show 'Dancing With the Stars'  This raised Belinda's public profile dramatically and it was then I decided to add a new area to the site and the news page was started.  So the site had developed from a database of mainly audio releases to a site that had up to date news on Belinda Carlisle and the Go-Go's. 

It was at this time I also added scans from magazine interviews, an avatar gallery for people to use on internet forums and links and contact pages.

 
 

 

In April 2009 I was researching online picture gallery options when I stumbled upon the Ning social networking site.  As they offered large picture gallery options I set up a Belinda community which had 170 members who as a group had uploaded over 1300 pictures of Belinda and the Go-Go's.  Due to changes at Ning the group needed to find a new home and in May 2010 this was started at SocialGo.

In November 2009 the site moved webhosts.  At the beginning of 2010 the site got a whole new look as well as the addition of a page with all Belinda and the Go-Go's live dates on, a store and a news archive.

At the present time the site is seeing an average of 2000 visits a month which is increasing month on month.  June 2010 is already seeing twice as many daily visits as May 2010.
