Editing TeamAyu (section)

=== Magazine Era (2001-2005) ===
In early 2001, around the release of A BEST, TeamAyu finally got its own TeamAyu.com website, rather than the club being a subsection of Ayu's official site. You could now join the club via a web form instead of sending an e-mail (although payment was still made separately from the web form), and avex's alert! system no longer existed and was therefore not required anymore. Membership was also now separated out into two tiers, "A course" for 6,000 yen and "B course" for 4,000 yen. The higher-cost "A course" was the only part that allowed for access to the members-only TeamAyu website. Both tiers gave members access to the official TeamAyu magazine, published every few months, and bonus merchandise.

Some of the behind-the-scenes photo galleries from the original Online Fan Club site were migrated over to Ayu's public official website as additional "Special Issue" reports. Those included the [[WHATEVER (PV)|WHATEVER]] video shoots, the [[ayu-mi-x]] CM shoot, the [[LOVE~Destiny~ (PV)|LOVE~Destiny~]] music video shot, the [[TO BE (Single)|TO BE]] jacket photo and video shoots, the [[Boys & Girls (PV)|Boys & Girls]] video shoot, the [[A (Single)|A]] single jacket photo shoot, and the A Film for XX cover & insert photo shoot.

The MEMBERS BBS on the A-Course website was closed in Spring 2003.

During the run of Ayu's TV variety show "ayu ready?", the TeamAyu site featured an "ayu ready?" section for behind-the-scenes photo galleries and videos for each episode.
