Search "forum" plus the topic of your website on Google or Alta Vista. For my first page , I searched "backpacking + forum" and in the pages of results I found several dazzling forums. I also searched related topics like "hiking" too. You might also check about.com, and other sites that have forums on many topics.

Income From Discussion Forums

The point of putting up in forums is to get readers to come to your internet page . Sure its fun to give advice and discuss things of interest to you, but thats secondary. With that in mind, do the following:

1. Always link to your web site. If they do not allow any links, find another forum.

2. Dont "spam." Sales pitches will be removed. Offer honest advice, or express an opinion, then sign off with your name and the backlink to your page .

3. Ask for help from others. This is an effective and acceptable way to "market." Enter a topic like "Can I get some advice?" and post something like, "I just started a meditation page . If some of you would visit and tell me what you think, Id really appreciate it." Have a link to the page . People love to help, and to give opinions, and theyll click on those ads while theyre at your web page .

4. Look at total "views." Many forums show the total times each "thread" has been viewed. When you see some with many more than others, get in on those, or start a new thread on the identical topic. Go where the visitors is, and get some of it.

I didnt like the idea of forums until I made a few posts, and viewed my traffic and revenue climb for days afterwards. That convinced me. Just be polite, offer some worth to others, and always have a hyperlink to your website . Many other secrets of using forums are covered in my news letter , but this should be get you started. Talk and contruct profit today.
