A competitor of ours in the LDS resources market makes this claim on their website:
“[domain name] is now the largest collection of helps anywhere online.”
Here’s another one: “Welcome to [domain name]: the largest repository of LDS-related content on the internet.”
We beg to differ. It is a given that lds.org is the single largest collection of LDS helps on the planet. Who can really compare with the resources the church provides; e.g., years and years of magazines, music downloads, images? This is a very good application of our tithing dollars in my estimation.
Who then comes in second? I believe that position probably goes to one of the online LDS libraries; LDS Library or Gospelink, both of whom boast thousands of book titles indexed. LDS Library, my favorite, even indexes much of the lds.org material; Gospelink advertises the same.
Latter-dayVillage.com is not even in the same volume league with those sites; however, we specialize in focused content in certain areas. For those markets, we have some impressive resources (counts as of 7/1/2008):
| Seminary Articles: | 4875 |
| Seminary Downloads: | 3935 |
| Primary Articles: | 1600 |
| Primary Downloads: | 1033 |
| Primary Music Articles: | 493 |
| Primary Music Downloads | 887 |
| General Articles*: | 522 |
| General Downloads: | 478 |
| Clipart **: | 4312 |
We continue to expand our online store product line, with the latest additions from our new line of Zazzle products. Our product line includes 885 products now with more on the way. We are working with several new vinyl products vendors and will add their products shortly.
So perhaps we will just claim to be a ‘pretty good LDS resource’.
*General articles are free with a membership registration and include everything from FHE, homeschooling, and Relief Society to Young Women.
** Includes more than just LDS specific clipart. A large majority of our clipart collection comes from open source image repositories that we have formatted in more industry accepted file types.
