If done correctly, the forum is one of the most effective free internet marketing strategies. Many people participate in online forums for different reasons. Especially in the Internet Marketing Forum, they use it to get advice and answer their questions.
Another reason is to find new tools, products and marketing concepts that can be applied to their websites or online businesses. Internet forums are also an excellent resource for connecting with other online entrepreneurs and building win-win and profitable joint ventures. Finally, you can promote your site in the forum in indirect mode.
Use the forum to follow the links to websites you allow to be placed in posts. However, this is not as simple as it sounds. Users must have reason to click on your link. For example, one reason might be a useful hint or resource for your answer. In the long run, you gain credibility and become an expert in your field.
But how do you achieve this goal? First, you must study the forum carefully before joining the forum. Check their guides, topics, questions, user knowledge levels and experience. After that, you group the questions into specific blocks to provide an answer.
E.g:
Question:
1] How can I protect my website from theft?
2] Where can I find HTML security software?
and many more
Reply:
1] HTML encryption software
2] Hide the code of your website.
and many more
It's time to get the answer. You can use the search engine to find the answer, or the recourse you have used in the past, or even the "how" ebook you purchased. There are many options. Don't forget that you shouldn't be limited to a topic. You can repeat this process as many times as needed.
There are three ways to provide answers to forum users.
First, by notifying the forum users of the sites you see, which contain solutions to the problems they are experiencing. This is a less effective method because you have to stay away from the main reason, by clicking on the link to access your website.
Second, create a web page with answers for your website.
For example: www.yoursite.com/htmlsecurityreport.htm. This is a great way to promote it because it's not a blatant ad [you tell people], on the other hand users visit your site.
Third, create a new website that is completely relevant to the topic.
For example: www.htmlsecuritytips.com. This method is also very effective, but you should remember that you have to spend some money [web hosting, domain registrars, etc.] and definitely have more time.
The problem here is that with the second and third options, you can promote your site without violating the rules of the forum, which may include your affiliate program or even your product.
Of course you can ask, "Where can I find the forum?" One way is to use a search engine. Written in the search bar "Internet Marketing Forum", you will have a lot of lists, but you should be aware that only the ones that are worth paying attention to are active. Another thing you should be aware of is how many users and posts the forum has every day. If you have one or two users, then you should leave, although the forum for search engine indexing is important because linking your site to this forum may also mean indexing your site.
When you always post to the forum, please use your name instead of some kind of code or code, such as 22357. You want to get the credibility of your name, not a characterless number or a fake username. Use your signature in each post, which should include your name, 2-3 lines of text [depending on the number of lines the forum administrator allows you to use] and your site URL.
