Just a quick note of thanks to all of you for supporting this website, as today it publishes its 1500th post. (Yes, this is number 1,500).
Since Mingtiandi began as a personal blog in January 2008, it has since grown into a real publication read by more than 20,000 people each month, and with more than 7,000 subscribers to our email newsletters. Clearly, the website could not have reached this point without the advice, support and recommendation of many of you reading this, for which I am profoundly grateful.
Getting to this point has meant a lot of work. 1500 posts at an average of 500 words per post means about 750,000 words have been poured into this site. In terms of hours, at an average of two hours per post, that’s around 3000 hours of writing. And we’re not done yet.
During the coming months, I plan to roll out additional services on Mingtiandi, to provide all of you with more detailed information on China’s real estate markets, and to help you make better investment decisions.
I look forward to working with all of you to make Mingtiandi’s finest and most up-to-date source of China real estate intelligence, and I welcome any input you may have as I aim for post number 3000.
Once again, I appreciate your support and I hope that you will continue to find Mingtiandi an important information source.
Michael Cole
