On the eve of the new platform going online, qbr.it  did not let us down and gave us enormous satisfaction. There will be 500 thousand switching from Qbr to Ciaopeople.

After the access peaks obtained by the magazine and the year of evolution of the entire portal, we are also celebrating half a million subscribers.

A new milestone that confirms the upward trend in social networking scanned at a rate of 100 thousand subscribers every 6 months: in just 2 years we have gone from 100 thousand to 500 thousand registered users.

A chat that was initiated along the streets of Naples, gathering consensus in Neapolitan youngsters and that soon turned into a real social network of

Qbr: one year of data, a year of growth

2008 at 14,15 autore published by ciaopeople

After publishing the statistics of Qbr Magazine, some Ciaoblog readers have contacted us , inquiring about data concerning the whole social network. To the request of publishing Qbr data, we  obediently respond with this post.
And besides being obedient we are also proud of the results achieved.
Qbr.it is proof that a product that is born naturally limited to  a given territory, is bound to spread to new markets if the formula works and if it works well for that  particular goal. Thus, even if the community has its roots in Parthenopean youth, this social network is becoming a italian reality, with subscribers from throughout the boot, and especially in Lazio, Lombardy and Emilia

Qbr.it changes. In form and in substance. Together with a new platform that will give our users new and more entertaining  features, the social network gets a new name and logo, specially designed for us by Sergio Esposito, art director of Nascar (the  Neapolitan Communication Company than ran the portal until 2007) and of infamous creativity.
It is in this context that Ciao People arises, the new identity of a community that already exists but will live through  extraordinary changes that make it more appealing, comfortable, and most of all bigger and more engaging.
We chose a name that was able to represent  the typical values that emphasize the concept of social network (socializing, friendship, community)

With Ciaoblog, Ciaopeople turns into blogger

2008 at 12,28 autore published by ciaopeople

Ciaoblog.net is a space dedicated to the direct communication with Ciaopeople staff.

Both in its graphic design and in its contents, we wanted this space to reflect our spirit and enthusiasm; we wanted a space dedicated to sharing and communication with others, where we could talk about ourselves and confront each other. In a few words: a business blog.

We designed Ciaoblog as a special area to get in touch with us in a very simple and direct way- our CEO, Gianluca Cozzolino says- A blog conceived as both a business communication tool and discussions area, to interact with people with our same interests and curiosities.

On Ciaoblog, in fact, we’ll write about Ciaopeople, about

A partnership between Qbr and Gay.tv

2007 at 11,36 autore published by ciaopeople

Qbr and Gay .tv editorial staffs created a partnership promoting a weekly exchange of homosexual contents and themes.

Every week, Gay.tv Magazine will feature an article written by our editors. While the theme channel “Love Sex” of Qbr Magazine, (a space dedicated to love and eroticism), can rely on a new sub-channel, entirely managed by Gay.tv staff, Qbr decided to make the most of the collaboration and open its doors to the Gay community.

The Gay.tv website, currently managed by Yam 112003, a society belonging to the Endemol Italy group, aims to complete the editorial project started in May 2002, with the first satellite channel entirely dedicated to the homosexual universe. Since then, Gay.tv, thanks
