Two Weeks In
Wow! I can’t believe it’s already been two weeks since I got everything online. It’s been such an interesting experience. I’ve learned more about how the internet works in two weeks than I did in 2 years. I finally got listed on Google (still not on the first page when you search for Zung Jung mahjong, but we’re getting there! Edit – on the first page as of 9/27!), which is pretty cool. I’ve also seen some traffic come through Facebook where I think some people shared the site in a post. Thanks so much! It’s been so fun seeing it get around and that people are finding it useful.
I want to thank everyone so far who has stopped by and perused the site. I’ve seen traffic from all over the world. It’s so great to see that there are people looking for Zung Jung information and finding my site along the way. I’ve had people from the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Greece, the Czech Republic, Singapore, Hong Kong (stay safe out there), Japan, South Korea, Australia and so many more.
I’m working on some more articles, so keep an eye out in the coming weeks! And if you have anything you want to share or talk about the site, comment down below.

Congratulations, I hope your website will grow and will be successful, here in Mexico mahjong is not popular, in fact, I don´t think people know of mahjong other than the pairs matching game, I wish more people play it in the future. I learned to play it on an app, and now in my family, we play it once a week or occasionally with real tiles, we started with the Chinese classical rules but now we use ZJ rules because I think it´s more fun to go for the patterns, we are not strict on the payoff scheme and other rules but the essence of the game is there. Thanks.

Mil gracias, Juan! I’m so glad to hear you are able to enjoy ZJ with your family. ZJ takes a lot of inspiration from Chinese Classical, so I can see why you would like it. And no need to be strict with the payoff scheme; even Alan Kwan has the Uniform Payoff Scheme (where no matter how the hand was made, every other player always pays the winner 1 time the total pattern value of his hand) for those who don’t want to use the Formal Competition Payoff Scheme. For casual games and for teaching purposes it’s great.
And who knows, maybe you’re the start to making it more popular in Mexico. You sound like a great ambassador of the game!
