SAN DIEGO, CA, January 26, 2011 (Press-News.org) One San Diego Company is making individuals' New Year's resolutions to be fit and healthy, fun and easier than ever to stick with: FitTogether.com, the premier social networking platform that brings local fitness communities together and provides useful tools necessary to lead a healthy lifestyle, announced the re-launch of its website and online community with better-than-ever features for members on all fitness levels.
With brand new components recently added to the site, individuals are now able to instant message and video chat with other members, look-up events in their area, and sync profiles to other social networking sites, such as Facebook, to keep both networks in tune with one another.
In addition, personal tools like calorie counters, BMI calculators, fitness logs and discussion boards are utilized by each member differently and allow for personal achievement in addition to the site's other features.
"While we were up and running and had a solid following on the site, 2010 was an experimental year for us, as my team and I worked to find the winning combination of features and easy-to-use functions to keep members coming back for more," said Scott Bowen, Founder and CEO of FitTogether.com. "I am confident that the site is well on its way to becoming all that I envisioned it could be and am excited to see its growth in membership and popularity in the upcoming months. I am now getting approached by prospective investors and partners who see the benefits and potential of the site and want to be a part of its growth. It's an exciting time for FitTogether.com."
The FitTogether.com site also enables members to search for others with similar fitness goals, interests and specific areas of expertise, while facilitating the interaction between members through its various communication channels.
FitTogether.com is free to use for all members and is utilized by many fitness professionals to market themselves, in order to expand their clientele and business. Professionals may offer services, give expert advice, and provide information on any of the site's discussion boards or member groups.
"My mission in creating FitTogether.com was to construct an easy-to-use platform for people to stay motivated, lead healthy lifestyles and have a great time doing so," said Bowen. "Whether you're looking to find a fitness partner, meet like-minded individuals, or simply set out to find a personal trainer or healing arts professional, this site has it all."
Since the new site has been released to the public, statistics are showing that the average user spends over 40 minutes on the site and is browsing close to 20 pages per visit. That is an increase of 10 more pages per visit and over triple the time spent on the site, than with the previous version.
"I am looking forward to hearing more about how the revamped site is received by members and what additional features I can add to keep users coming back to FitTogether.com as their one stop shop for any and all things fitness," said Bowen. "I will know I did something right when Peter Englehart, Dave Alberga or Reid Hoffman ever call me up saying, 'Mr Bowen, I'd like to buy you a cup of coffee.' Those guys are the best at what they do."
