Make Easy Online Money Now With Forum Marketing
May 15, 2009 | Tagged easy online money | 4 Comments
Most people create blogs and websites because they want to make some easy online money and a blog income, now, TODAY!
One way to start is with Forum Marketing.
Forum marketing is a great method of marketing your products free of charge. However, in order to avoid getting banned you need to know a few tricks. You need to take care to not use blatant advertising as this will probably get you banned almost immediately.
So use these tips to help you make money online now.
The first step to follow when you first join a forum is to create yourself an engaging profile. Create an avatar which is either a photo of yourself or a photo that relates to your particular niche. For example, if you have a niche of dog training, you might include a photo of a dog – your own dog would be great! If your business is in the golf arena you could include a picture of a famous golf pro. And so on.
The next thing you should do is to start creating posts that answer questions. You should avoid mentioning your site or your product for a while yet. When you join a forum you will be on hand to provide helpful solutions to problems and questions posted by other members. You can sometimes post your own thread that will provoke discussion and give helpful tips and advice.
The idea behind this phase is that you establish yourself as an expert in your field. When you provide people with answers that help them they will see you as somebody to go to with a problem. Forum members will start to recognize your posts and start to trust and respect the answers and advice that you give.
Before you start take a look at the forum rules to make sure they permit links within signatures. If that is allowed, feel free to add a link to your site. You might have a preference to include a link to your squeeze page instead to enable you to build a list of forum members that you can use later.
Don’t keep drawing attention to your signature. Don’t create posts that constantly say, “Look at my signature for more information”. Simply continue to post as you have been and give people the helpful advice and information they request.
Once you have established a good reputation, you will find people will actually start to seek you out by themselves. Ensure the name you use on the forum is displayed within the content of each project you are marketing. You need to ensure that people can easily find you and your products if they run a Google search.
It might even be possible to Joint Venture (JV) with the owner of the forum once you have become established on the forum. You might suggest a standard JV, or you might want to ask the owner if it is possible to be an affiliate. You could offer them some great deals, offering higher levels of commission than a normal affiliate would receive, or a special members only discount.
Show respect for the rules of the forum. Don’t send private messages to people asking them to look at your site unless you have established a relationship with them already. You should only ever draw attention to your project if somebody posts something that asks about specific advice about products.
For example, if somebody posts asking “Has anybody got a good book or guide that will help me to train my puppy?” In this case you could get away with replying, “I actually wrote a book on this subject and if you want more information the link is in my sig.” An invitation to provide a link or advice is usually fine, but other than that allow the forum to funnel traffic by itself.
In summary, find the forums that relate to your products, join and simply provide helpful solutions to problems and questions and build trust.
That way you can start to make easy online money and a blog income now, TODAY!
