Barbie Girl Grows

August 6, 2007 by Rachel  
Filed under Marketing

Barbiegirls.com the virtual world from Mattel, is definitely taking off. According the Brand Week, Mattel are reporting a 6% growth spurt in the last quarter and the world is growing enough to hit the tech big time as well, with a TechCrunch story

So how did Barbie come back into fashion? By embracing current teen trends like online community building via Barbie-Girls.com, launched in April. It currently claims three million members who can create a virtual character that shops and interacts with other users.

That’s a lot of registrations for something that is still in beta testing. It won’t formally launch (in 5 languages) until later in August. The TC comments challenge the numbers, given Alexa rankings (only ever indicative). Getting that many users means signing up 50k a day over the first 2 months; that was before they launched the mp3 player last month which is needed to unlock a lot of the content within the world. To compete-Bratz have also launched a world, but this is only accessible if you buy the player, not free as Barbie currently is.

Whatever the real numbers, there appears to be a thriving online population of young girls trawling the web trying to find ways to unlock the content without purchasing the player. Yahoo Answers have a number of requests; so do any site where they are talking about it. Look at the comments John Swords post or the couple on my previous post – John is braver than I, as I closed comments! They’ve even hit Wikipedia with the requestSome typical requests:

How to unlock everything at barbiegirls.com?

does any one no the code please tell us all

how can someone make a wep abut barbie and u need a
barbie mp3 player.it is not fair.i cant belive all girls aruond the world.

With increasing number of girls looking for the site and for unlock clues, there’s a piece of advice that I hope Mattel takes – get someone to clean up the search results! Using common terms you quickly hit dubious ‘girly’ sites which I’m guessing Mattel will not want their 6-12 yo customers taking a look at. Here’s a need for SEO if ever I’ve seen one – get more bloggers talking about it!
