WHY SUBSCRIBE?
We started this site before Facebook (I know…) and it is still the only website that features just the island of Barbuda and promotes our news and our businesses. We do not confuse Antigua with Barbuda and we believe in authenticity and accuracy, not in instagram. Our analytics show us we are consistently reaching over 170 countries out of 195 in the world. We know that 99% of people who come to Barbuda have first looked for and then found the information they need on here. We get lots of e mails and we answer them all, and our visitors give us great feedback about the website when we meet them.

WE ARE CONSISTENTLY ON THE FIRST PAGE OF GOOGLE when people search for Barbuda.
And we are regularly listed (and visited) by writers and journalists updating information about Barbuda and our place in the Caribbean; including tourism publications Conde Nast Traveller, Footprint, Lonely Planet, Superyachts Guide and the various Antigua and Barbuda guides. We are often referenced in the international media when they write about Antigua and Barbuda and we always follow them up if they miss us out.

WE KNOW THAT BARBUDAN BUSINESSES BENEFIT FROM A WEBSITE LIKE THIS
as more visitors engage with the community directly, using the site to look for locally-owned accommodation, our amazing food produce, tours where you meet the real experts, how to find our beautiful beaches, shops to buy groceries and things to do – always looking online before they come and often looking online when they are still here, where they will find our facebook page listings of events and activities as thy happen. This includes church events, food fairs, horse-race and other local events.

WE WRITE THIS
For Barbudans living overseas (especially those of Barbudan descent who have yet to visit) our Caribbean neighbours (including those in Antigua who are unfamiliar and uninformed about the differences between us) and with our island neighbours further afield, and visitors and travellers around the world who have never been to Barbuda but want to come one day. We try to post accurate, up to date information and positive images of the island and we believe in self-determination and sustainable progress, so we speak out against negative views of Barbuda and our community, and so we are definitely not in favour of destructive over-development and unscrupulous developers, if any of you are reading this!

WE HAVE CREDENTIALS
We have been contacted by many international organisations for assistance, the Huffington Post have featured Barbuda with all their links going to this website, and Virgin Atlantic contacted us to participate in filming their in-flight video here on Barbuda. Following Hurricane Irma this website was of special interest to the rest of the world (although every one of us represented here was gone overnight) and so we contributed to the island receiving much needed, well-informed media attention and pro-active and compassionate international support. We are taken seriously and people follow our site with interest.
