Before the recent oil and gas development did you know of Suriname? What are/were your expectations living here prior to your first visit?
Just genuine curiosity as a Suriname local.

I'm going to be honest. I am not an advertising industry professional at all but as my current hobby has escalated a bit i thought what better place for advice than reddit? So recently i have started a website. I won't name it here for now as not to break the no advertising rule but it's basically a listing directory and some tools all specific to my country Suriname.
I have been making some basic social media posts to get the word out there which is going fine for what it is. My next goal is to make a cool little video for tiktok/reels that showcases the site a bit. However, my attempts are quite....disappointing to say the least. It feels more like a boring slideshow guide of the site rather than an enticing grabbing video. Does anybody have any ideas how to edit/what to capture and how to present it? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Starting from the time i drop this post. Whoever can get me the most live backlinks(no trash) within this timeslot wins a prize. Comment here if you manage to get it live somewhere successful

Most local info is scattered across outdated pages or buried in chaotic social media feeds. I wanted something better, so I started r/ExploreSuriname . The goal is pretty simple: keep it functional and simplified. It’s an open space and a growing directory featuring: Whether you are living in Suriname, part of the diaspora, or just planning a trip, it’s built to give you the data clearly and quickly. Come check it out and help build the community.

Most people don't even realize Suriname is in South America, let alone how to get around the interior or what to eat in Paramaribo. I noticed the online info was either outdated or non-existent, so I built exploresuriname.com to change that.

Whether you're looking for jungle expeditions or just want to know how the bus system works, I’ve tried to cover it all. Happy to answer any specific questions about the country here too!
