After the Black Saturday bushfires, .au Community Domains (auCD) gave the Marysville community a website to provide an information and community connection hub. auCD reports that the website has now grown to include information about the people of Marysville, local news, events, assistance information, town history, information on the rebuilding activities and links to other important websites.
The Marysville site also includes a link to the Marysville blog which community members have used to communicate with one another through the rebuilding process and links to other photo sharing sites including images before and after the bushfires in Marysville.
auCD says the Marysville community website is averaging over 500 visits a week, which shows how well the site is being utilised by the local community.
The Marysville community website is one of the 27 provided by auCD in response to the Black Saturday bushfires by quickly providing community websites for the Victorian bushfire affected localities including Kinglake, Callignee, and Mudgegonga.
Links to all of the 27 community websites are available from the Victorian Bushfire affected community websites page on the auCD website.
