I am reading more and more these days of the value of involving yourself with online forums. It's a great way to demonstrate expertise in your niche area. I am also told that it can be a strategic way to increase traffic to your website.
The most helpful article I read is by Yaro Starak called "How to Leverage Online Forums For Blog Traffic." He outlines 3 helpful steps to accomplish this:
- Add a photo and signature to the forum you join.
- Add value to the forum by demonstrating your knowledge and helpful expertise.
- Promote yourself...indirectly. Do not use the forum as a self-promotion tool. Instead, add your expertise, get noticed, and people will come to you.
The advice makes complete sense. If done correctly, developing a presence in online forums can certainly bring more traffic to your site. For more information, I have included a link to the article. As always, I welcome any comments that would help readers at this site. Have an excellent day!
