YourMarbella.com - Community for Marbella Residents

YourMarbella is a new social network for residents of Marbella, Costa del Sol and Puerto Banus. The site integrates both individuals and businesses in the region. Businesses can promote their services via their profile, while individuals can search for businesses in the directory. Profiles can be embellished with video, photos and other media. As with other networks, Marbella comes with blogs, forums, video and photos, and community groups. You’ll also note a section entitled Snaparazzi—here you’ll find photos of Marbella’s nightlife and club scene. A classifieds section allows members to buy and sell goods. Of course, a must have for any network focused on beach life, there’s a comprehensive weather section displaying weekly and daily forecasts. Registration takes a minute and it’s free.

“YourMarbella.com is an online service that allows our personal and business members to set up unique profiles that can be linked together through networks of friends and businesses. YourMarbella members can view each others' profiles, communicate with old friends and meet new friends on the service, share photos, post journals and comments, and describe their interests. To enrich our members' experience, we request and display some personal information to other members and visitors, which allows our users to identify each other and expand their network of friends. YourMarbella members can change their profile information at any time and can control how other members and the service communicates with them. YourMarbella.com cares deeply about online privacy”

YourMarbella is a sleek, modern and comprehensive niche network site. It has all the amenities a social network should have and it’s well organized, with that professional looking sheen. For anyone in the Marbella area, this is a one stop site.

Though it’s well made, the site remains somewhat bland—it has the appeal of a swim wear catalogue. There’s nothing really stand out about the site.
