Tip 2. Promoting your site.
There are many different ways of promoting your site on forums but the first and easiest way is to paste your site link and description into your signature – providing that the forum allows you. By doing this and posting regularly you’ll find that the click through rate on large forums is very good, you’ll be surprised at the traffic you’ll recieve and even if your site does not get clicked, you’ll be gaining vital exposure. And if your looking to put your links into other users signatures then be prepared to use either some forum cash or your own money. Don’t just place your link in any users signature, you need to find active users with atleast a daily post count of 3-5 – and do not over pay either. You’ll want to research a little about the average price on the forums you’re on and the quality of posts that the user makes. The next thing to do is open link exchange with other users. Link exchange involves putting your link on their site and their link on your site. Usually the amount of pages the link appears on is only one, but appearing on all pages, if you wish to, is a rarity and is not often seeked out. Holding contests is another great way of promoting your site. If your site is a forum, holding posting contests is a great way of promoting your site: it attracts new users, of which some should stay active, it makes your forum, if empty before, look attractive and user friendly. I’m sure that the average person would rather sign up to a large forum rather than a empty forum.
And those are the best ways of promting your site on forums for free. It helps that larger web,aster forums give something back to their users by offering ad revenue sharing. Promoting your site on forums is a great way to boost your sites popularity and can make your site gain the exposure it needs. Good Luck!
