The survey was reopened and will continue through February 12th after numerous people said they were not aware of it or had not had the chance to participate. Preliminary results remain encouraging showing that if members work together and keep their commitment to this site, the Ipernity platform can be restructured into a sustainable site and saved. To date, more than 1300 members have participated with an overwhelming interest in joining a membership association. The hope is stronger! :)

I just wanted to add that everything remains encouraging especially when BlipFoto, a site taken over by a membership association BlipFuture CIC is considered. Ipernity seems to have a lot in common with BlipFoto except that it has more features and options. Prior to the successful membership takeover, BlipFoto was reported to have about 100,000 members but when "dead" accounts were deleted it turned out they had in reality just under 3,000 "real" accounts. I believe this is the case with Ipernity. Furthermore, if BlipFoto was able to make a successful transition with these numbers, it is encouraging Ipernity can do the same.

Survey Results:

1443 members participated with 97% expressing a desire for Ipernity to be saved with an overwhelming number expressing a willingness to join a membership association. Almost 2/3 of the respondents offered to participate in a CrowdFund campaign. When the answers for “other” are excluded, the amount offered was 34,595€. In addition, 2/3 of the respondents agreed to an annual membership fee of 50€ or above. As a result, the IMA annual fee will be 50€, which is competitive with other photo sharing sites and will offer a sustainable, viable long-term future for the Ipernity platform.

Last, based on the survey results, the percentage of people use the Ipernity platform as follows:

98.4%: Photo Sharing
56.5%: Comments/Interaction
51.4%: Group Participation
26.2%: Article/Blog Writing
22.4%: Video Sharing
19.2%: Social Media
13.4%: Audio/Music Sharing

Note: Answers for “All of the Above” were added to the totals for each of the categories.

Out of the 1443 respondents, 70.3% were Club Members and 29.7% were non-Club Members.
