Discuss Your Way to Profits

Having read several different ebooks about free ways to get traffic, I decided that I would try a couple of these methods. The one method that I will save for another article is article marketing. The second method that will be the topic of our conversation today is the use of forums.

I have a website that offers a wonderful training course on making money online. I have decided to use this website as our test site to see how using forums will brings traffic to this site. I am using a capture page as my address to link to. I will layout in steps what I did to achieve my intended traffic.

1. Find the forums that I wish to post to. I decided to use the topic of making money online as the type of forums that I will look for. I have decided to post to those forums that get a lot of traffic and at the same time are moderated.


2. I made a decision that since I was new to these forums that my post would be a hopefully initiate some conservation. I also decided that I would use my name so that people would start to get to know me and we could start building a business relationship.

3. I also made sure that I posted to a popular topic. Since making money online is a very popular topic, I felt that a lot of people would view what I had to say.

4. Before I went into the forums, I made a list of 50 keywords that I could use in my subject line as well as throughout my postings. I knew that this would bring a lot of viewers to my postings.

5. I tried to include a link to my website in my postings. This will help my viewers get to know more about me.

6. I am very careful and take some time when making my postings. I wanted to initiate a lot of conversation, but I also found that I have a lot to offer in the way of suggestions and comments based on how my business is. I also hope that I can offer some very useful comments to the other participants in the forum.

7. My final tip is to follow the Golden Rule when working in various forums. Remember that in working in forums, you are building your business, your reputation and image. So in my comments and postings, I want to treat others as I would like to be treated.

These are a few tips that I find will help me make this a part of my marketing of my business a great success, and will bring me a lot of traffic.
