Posting on forums, why do it?

Posting on forums why should you do it?

Forums are on online resource where people cant post their:

opinions
seek help
give advice

etc etc

The great thing about forums is your forum signature.

You can have a link to your website, a link to your ebay shop
even a link to your ebay items for sale if you like.

So you can generate a lot of traffic and ideally get lots of sales.

So what type of forum should you join?

Well there are literally millions of forums on the internet, and most subjects are covered too.

There are forums set up for almost any subject you can think of.

Just because you sell ebooks doesn't mean you should limit yourself to only posting on ebook forums, if you have a particular favourite hobby or interest, for example say you love football or soccer, find a forum for that subject and just particpate like any other person would, but make sure you have your website or ebay shop etc etc included in your signature.

This means that everytime your post or comments gets viewed, there is a high possibility that people will be curious and visit your link.

Its a good idea to make your signature appealing, attention grabbing, and that will encourage people to visit your link.

If you are an expert on any type of subject, say, training a dog, sign up at some dog forums, give advice, help people, and again your signature will get lots of views.

Try and find the "hot" topics, the ones that get the most views, the ones that have had the most replies.

If the forum has a freebie section, give something away for free to visitors to your website and add a post in that section about your freebie.

Many times a forum will have an advertise your product or website, make sure you put an interesting post about your product or website.

Doing this will increase traffic to your website or whichever page you use a signature.

If you are a newbie to forums then I recommend that you visit one of these forums, if not both, they are both run by very friendly people, and the forum members are very friendly too and always happy to give you advice if you ask.

Inside eBay Forum

Goofbay Forum

Both these forums are ebay related, so if you have a problem with anything on ebay you are sure to find a solution posted on hereand if you are an ebay expert they will LOVE you!

One thing to remember, forums and their members HATE spammers, so dont just join forums and start posting links here, there, and everywhere to your website.

A forum is an online community, like a group of friends, so treat them with the respect they deserve, plus if you do start spamming forums, you will more than likely receive a few choice words posted about you and get booted out the forum.

Visit the forums I have listed about, browse the topics, see if you can help anyone, or if you have a problem yourself ask for some advice.

Happy posting
