Nowadays, many webmasters are complaining that it is difficult to build a website, and even more difficult to build a forum website. Because the more forums there are, the more difficult it is to promote the forums. Since discuz! provided the forum program to netizens for free, thousands of forum websites have blossomed in an instant. How to promote your own forum website and let the majority of netizens know about your forum? Here are some commonly used and very effective forum promotion methods.
1. Search engine. What you have to do is to let the search engine include it. You can log in to the BBS first and it will usually be included in a month. If the search engine happens to be updated, it may be included the next day. After submitting it to a search engine, if possible, try to make the post static. This is more conducive to the inclusion of search engines! I have seen the static BBS site, which is really a master! You can search for this information on the Internet yourself.
2. Cooperate with website excerpts. If you haven’t heard of Net Picking yet, you’re already very behind. A website excerpt is likely to bring you unexpectedly huge traffic. If you cooperate well, a website excerpt can give you hundreds or even thousands of IPs. The larger forum-oriented ones include Qihu, Tieyi, etc., and other comprehensive large-scale ones include Sina ViVi, 365key, etc. As long as you have time, just submit the post there. Of course, these are relatively large-scale and very popular. The post you submitted may not be visible in a few minutes. Then you can also submit to many small and medium-sized website excerpting sites. I saw a post excerpting center a few days ago, which is also specifically for BBS. It has a good idea. After looking at its model, I found that some of them are quite good at promoting BBS. , firstly, there is a forum alliance special page on its homepage, which only includes posts from this forum; secondly, there is also a forum alliance recommendation on the page where you browse posts. Click on the post inside to directly enter the source forum of the post. This advantage is great for The forum is of course self-evident - it directly brings visitors to your forum! There are many, many website excerpts, search them, you will find a lot of them, pick a few, add the code, submit them every day, and the traffic will increase every day. !You can also communicate directly with those webmasters and give each other some discounts, which will definitely bring you huge traffic.
3. Encourage forum members to spread the word. To publicize, you must have a good reputation and think of a good forum topic. Don’t be too general at the beginning, but have a focus! The forum is mainly used for communication. What is the theme of the forum? This should be done to everyone who has been to the forum. Everyone understands. Otherwise, if you talk in general terms, it seems to be all-encompassing, but in fact it is empty. Others will forget about this kind of forum! Of course, after the forum has gained a certain popularity, you can slowly consider making it bigger and broader. What I mentioned earlier is to allow members to actively promote the forum and build reputation! Next, you can also encourage members to submit posts to the website excerpts mentioned above. Of course, it is best to add corresponding codes to the forum to facilitate member submission! How? How to encourage? It depends on your ability. For example, you can use forum coins as rewards. The number of forum coins you submit will be rewarded accordingly. This is all possible. There are also many other resources of the forum, such as avatars, honors, contribution points, etc., which can be created! In addition, in addition to submitting to the website, you can also encourage posting in various forums for promotion, but there is a The risk is that if the advertising smell is too strong, the diligent Bamboo will delete it when he sees it. This is one of the reasons for submitting it to the website, which generally will not delete it!
4. Exchange links. By exchanging links with relevant BBS or websites, exchanging advertisements, content cooperation, user resource cooperation, etc., the purpose of mutual promotion is achieved between forums or websites with similar content. Among them, the most commonly used resource cooperation method is friendly links, using partners Website traffic resources promote each other. In addition, you can also join some traffic exchange alliances. There are so many traffic alliances now. It is recommended to be a well-known one, otherwise it may not have much effect. The key is not to be deceived, haha.
