500 weeks of Zwischengas - a look back
06/13/2020
Unlike daily newspapers or monthly magazines, we at zwischengas.com have a weekly editorial rhythm. For six to seven days at a time, we compile what we send out to our readers in our "News from Zwischenas" newsletter on Tuesday mornings at 06:20. And we are now doing this for the 500th time! Which means that we are 500 weeks old. And from this we can deduce that we will soon be 10 years old (equivalent to just over 520 weeks).
The 10-year anniversary celebration will of course be somewhat bigger than the 500-week anniversary, but 500 newsletters sent out is also a good reason to look back a little. Because a lot has happened in ten years.
We started small and modestly in 2010, but every week we tried to outdo ourselves again and again, picking up on exciting topics and putting the diversity of the classic car and youngtimer theme into words.
Whereas in 2010 or 2011 we wrote 10 or 12 articles per week, today we usually write 25 to 30. A year ago we were able to celebrate the impressive number of 10,000 self-published articles, and since then we have added quite a few more. For example, there are also the questions of the week and of course the popular car connoisseur quizzes, of which we will soon have put together 100.
And every week we send out the essence of our work over the last seven days in our newsletter.
We took a look under the hood and analyzed our statistics. The following 50 articles have been particularly well read on zwischengas over the last 10 years.

Over the years, we have continued to provide new ways for our readers to find the article they are looking for, such as themed pages on pre-war cars, classic cars or concept cars. We have fine-tuned the search function and for each report we display other topics that may also be of interest. Almost every published photo is linked to reports and, of course, the newsletter and the newsletter archive are also an aid to discovering interesting topics.
That's enough looking back, after all there's still a lot to do! We still have to prepare the 500th newsletter ...
