The people who ran SOHH always saw the forums as a liability. Ya'll nikkas don't click on ads. The demographic the site attracts (young and black) is useless to most advertisers because that kind of traffic never converts into sales. The forum barely paid for itself.

SOHH.com was the bread and butter. So they took the forums and spun it off into it's own entity. That way if it was to ever be brought down again SOHH.com wouldn't be affected in any way.

They fukked up. Period.

I could never sh1t on SOHH. Introduced me to the forum concept & just tons of new perspectives of music from all over the world. most important a lot of different new artist I got to kno before they ever hit radio, bet&mtv. Is because of SOHH. It's kinda sad how it ended over there. But SOHH will have a place in my hiphop history book :yeshrug:

Forum traffic is easy to convert. You just have to use shyt like amazon. You get alot of your membership buying through amazon thru you and you make bank.

sohh sold the forums to them hoping we all would sign up to the dougie and jumpstart their social media site
Is this the truest shyt I ever quote?
whatever it was it failed.
the Dougie was a fukking joke that nobody jumped on...some social media joint.

bottom line is that the servers were garbage.
you can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig.

R.I.P. SOHH

LONG LIVE THE COLI!!!
Shots fired, PSN :wow:

Sohh fukked up way before then. I wonder how many even know the meaning of the word SOHH?
It had more than a spark when it started, and it grew into what it was destined to turn into
BUT, at the end of the day. Too many fake ass pplz called the shots.
Tends to be inevitable on most web sites over time.... shots fired :birdman:
