How To Use Forums To Drive Traffic And My Secret??
Forums seem to be pretty much my main source
of traffic at the minute. They are as you say
instant traffic but as the posts in the
forums are not deleted then it is evergreen also.
Now what I can see is that it is pretty much
like blog hopping but in blog hopping you need
to stay, will we say nice to the writer of the
blog, otherwise you don’t get your comment approved
and that link juice that we all crave.
No there are differences but the evergreen factor
is there in both.
When you use forums for marketing you need to keep
active in them and also you need to be giving alot
of value in your posts for people to listen to you.
Things like “I agree with that” or “Great Post”
doesn’t give you much respect when it comes to these
places.
So you can post to forums all day but if you don’t
give value, well you are wasting your time really.
Most people know that you can’t promote in forum,
and when I say most people I have seen blatent
advertising in them which does nothing except get
you ignored or worse still get you banned.

Your signature at the bottom of your post is the only
way to get people to your website and there are different
rules for what you can do in them in different forums. I
learned a great way to boost your traffic from these
sig files the other night when I was listening to a
call Alex Jeffreys done with Andrew Fox who is from
northern Ireland which took me by suprise.
This is what these two big earner where saying.
Use a signature that will draw attention pick a
product that is in everyones inbox at the moment and say
something like
Why Im not buying (product name)click here
or
Hey (product name) does it really work
what’s the best bonus to buy
I have been testing these out an wham the traffic
has almost doubled.
The Warrior Forum is probably the most well know of
them all and is very active on a 24 hours bases but
you can find hundreds if not thousands of forums in every
niche you want just by doing a search on google.
So get into these forums they are great for building
relationships and traffic that is what we need in this
business.
To finish off here I want to tell you that I have something
big coming well it’s big in my eyes and will be giving
you more information on it early next week so call
back and I let you know more then.
Leave a comment and have a guess what I will be doing

Hi Glyn
Very useful post. I’ve just started out in the forums, too, and I’m looking to increase my number of posts and start to get good traffic from there. It’s a good way to see what a lot of people are talking abot even though it takes time to read and for a newbie, to find my way around.
I have a question for you, if you could help: how can I thank people if I’ve enjoyed reading I their post? I cant seem to see any icon to press? Or is it that I haven’t posted enomyself ugh yet to be allowed to do that? Great if you know the anser to that.
Now over to your happening event, you have something big coming, what could it be? Hmmm
A lorry? No, not relevant. Is it Nathan Rufus coming over for tea?
I’ve got no idea. You’ll have to spill it.

Hey Jaycee,
If you look at the bottom of the post that you want to thank the person in the Warrior forum there are 4 black botton – Quote, Multiquote, Quick reply and Thanks. If that person has a signature file it is in there.
How did you guess it is a Lorry so much for me trying to create an event. A well back to the drawing board for me ha ha.
All going well this weekend I have a post about it on Monday or Tuesday.
Talk soon
Glyn
Hey Glyn, I have not really tried forum marketing as such yet, and the warrior forum scares me ha ha.
That’s good you are getting results from it, now you are active on there people will start to notice you more.
Andrew’s call was fabulous I loved it, want his product but it’s too expensive just now.
Ok so I know what’s coming, it’s the answer to Bailey’s question isn’t it….why did the internet marketer cross the road!!!

Glyn,
It’s been tooo long since I’ve been here.
But by looking around “our group” it seems forum traffic is really being successful for everyone.
It’s my second highest source behind oil rig hopping. The tip you gave aobut looking at products are hot right now and then referring to them in your forum posts is something that I never even thought of.
That’s a stroke of genius.
Thanks for the tip and the post.
Have been in the forums and have had some really interesting conversations with people. Met some really successful ones as well.

Hi Glyn,
Glad to hear you are getting great results from the Warrior Forum. I have to get in there myself but like Sally says it scares me because there is just so much to do and see there!

Hey Glyn,
Glad to see you’re having success with the forums. It’s amazing how one little tweek can make such a huge difference.
I know how powerful forum traffic can be as I have a site that’s over a year and a half old that still gets over 30 visitors a day from just a few posts I’ve put up.
Keep it up Glyn,

Hey Glyn,
Ahhh, forum marketing, or should I say getting involved in forums is a great way for you to generate traffic to your website for sure.
I would look at niche forums for a way of getting involved, warrior forum and digital point are excellent, but also look at Russell Brunsons. Set aside time 30 minutes to an hour to keep on top of them all, provided you are not in too many!
Talk soon!

Hi Glyn
Forum commenting is a fantastic way to get traffic and it’s proven!
Another essential for me is the ‘Comment Luv’ plugin. I only discovered this a few weeks back but it certainly helps to encourage people to hop over to other blogs and leave comments!!
Great going and top post!

Hey Glyn,
Good to see that forum marketing is working for you! I have yet to really get involved in the Warrior Forum but after reading a lot of other blogs and they’re positive feedback on it I really really need to get in there!
Also, can’t wait to see what you have in store so definitely keep us updated. Take care!

Youv’e inspired me! I haven’t really tried the forums to this point. I am guessing a key would be to find forum threads with subject matter that you had some experience in, that way you have a better chance of making a meaningful contribution.

Hi Glyn, yes there is so much to learn from Warrior Forum. Its kind of addictive just reading through posts with great content. I was going to comment on another forum but when I read what sort of horrible sarcastic comments some members were posting to others I said no way! Warrior forum is definitely great-yahoo answers is another good one with alot of traffic. kind regards Orla
Orla Kelly´s last [type] ..Understanding What Internet Marketing Is All About-A Guide For Newbies
Nice post Glyn,
But, we “newbies” need information so, is it bad to post on forums just to get more “specific” information about that particular post?
Or can we “newbies” ask questions?
Still, I leave a link to one of my site in my signature when posting like above described.

Hi Mario,
It’s good to ask questions and give answers as there is always someone that is behind you when it comes to looking for information. Even if you are a the start of your IM journey there is always someone that needs to know what you know.
If you have problems just ask in the forums normally people are very helpful and love to help as long as you are not marketing on the forum otherwise you will just get ignored
Hope this helps
Glyn
I love the warrior forum and whenever there is a product launch, I never, ever purchase anything unless I consult my guru. The Warrior Forum is definitely the only “Guru” I need. I love the forum signature example you gave above. Seeing a signature like that can definitely increase click rate. Thanks a million for this post. It was a great read with info that I can put to use.

Great tips.
I came over here form Jonathan Beebe’s blog makemoneyonlinework. He mentioned your post in relation to driving traffic from forums.
I use DP, V7N and webmaster-talk, and these tips are a real help, and I will implement these tips.
I had a question:
Regarding the ‘rules against cross posting threads’. I could not find anything regarding cross posting threads in most of the forums. Maybe I missed it, but do you by any chance know whether this is allowed or not in DP, V7N Forums and webmaster-talk?
Thanks,
waleed

Forum is a great way to drive traffic. Posting required comments on forum sites can let you put signature and that signature can have your anchor text or keywords with link. From that you can generate traffic.
It’s very simple to use of forums to divert the traffic to your sites through commenting,questions & answers. When we give any answer on a question in the forums then our signature will also visible as our answers is approved. Through our signature links we can get profit or traffic for our website.
