Hey everyone. It’s Edward Brown. (No, really?! Lol.)
Today, I’ll be writing about internet marketing. More specifically, advertising on forums. Forums are websites like www.dreamteammoney.com. Now, I don’t want you to go posting and spamming the S*** out of those forums. How do you do it then Charles, you ask?
Well, I’ll explain that in this article. Yes, this article. Not any other ones. Just this one. Why would it be in any other article? Did you expect to read it under ‘How to make your body healthier’?. No, of course not. It will be in this article.
Let’s get started...
First off, you are going to need to sign up at a forum. (again, a forum is like www.dreamteammoney.com.) The forum must be related to your niche. (What the hell is a niche, you ask? Example: If you are promoting a product about healthy foods, then you’d want to find a forum that talks about healthy foods. If you are promoting a product about exercising, then you’d want to find a forum that talks about exercising.)
Now, you know what a forum is, and also what a niche is. But, you are probably currently wondering how the hell do I find this forum. It’s simple. Just type in the following in to Google. “[your niche]+forum” Now, only a moron would actually type “your niche” into Google. Obviously, you need to change that to your actual niche. For example, type in “video games + forums” if you’re looking for a forum about video games. (Yes, you really do type in the + sign.) It should bring up a lot of results. There are tens of thousands of forums out there, so one of then has to be related to your niche. If not, you may consider starting up your own forum, but that’s not what this article is about.
Once you sign up for the forum, it’s time to create your profile. In your profile you are going to want to include some information about you, including your name, email, and optionally, your phone number. Also, if you have a skype idea or AIM username, consider adding those. There should also be a space for your homepage. Use that space to put your affiliate link in. The way that you advertise in forums is, if you don’t already know, by putting your affiliate/referral link in your signature or ‘resource box.’
Before you do that though, consider making 10-30 quality posts in the forum. This will help you build up your reputation, instead of just a guy coming in to promote his affiliate link. Remember, the friendlier you are in a forum, the more people will respect you, and the more sales you will get.
Now I am going to talk about some posting tips.
To start it off, I'd say three things:
1. Don't advertise your signature with wasteful posts.
-The longer the person stays on your post, the more chance he has of looking at the bottom. So, make quality, long posts, and the person will probably click on your link.
2. Don't Put a 6-line banner.
-At my favorite forum, dream team money, the maximum signature allowed is 6 lines... don't waste it all by one big banner. When I see one like that, I never click it. I don't know why, I just don't. As I said before, don't waste it all by one big banner. When I see one like that, I never click it. I don't know why, I just don't.
3. Advertise with curiosity...
-Make people click on your link by curiosity... for example, I once had a post titled, "Part one in the five part series." That post got very few views. However, my post entitled, "BILL GATES IS ON DTM!!!" Got over 100 in a day... see? The people wanted to know if he really was on DTM (dream team money.)
Just remember to make friends on forums, be a nice person, and don’t spam. By following those three golden rules, you should succeed in forum marketing.
Thank you for reading this post. I hope you enjoyed it.
