How to use Online Forums to get traffic and sales.
3/28/2006 12:19:26 PM
by: Tracy Lahr http://www.marzlist.com/Tracy I got many questions from members how they can promote ResellRightsPack.com without having to have list, website, pay par click search engines etc. Example of question: Is this possible at all to promote your website and earn money if I just started out and have nothing more then internet browser and internet connection? Answer to this question is… YES I described below how you can get free traffic. In short all you need is to add your affiliate link to your forum signature and follow advice below. Remember that this is much easier to giveaway something free than to sell something. Many web users frequently involve themselves in at least one online forum. Online forums are a great way to connect with others on a more personal level. Some forums are very informal and involve discussion on everyday issues, while others are more informational. If you are trying to find free ways to advertise your affiliate link, using online forums to promote website traffic is a great idea. There are several ways you can use online forums to promote affiliate link. You should carefully consider the various different approaches and how you want yourself to be viewed before using a forum as a means of advertising. The easiest way you can use an online forum to promote your affiliate link, is by simply adding a link to promoted website in your forum “signature”. Many forums allow each member to create a “signature” that is added to the bottom of each of their posts. If you include your affiliate link to something for free, it is likely that others you chat with in the forums will become more familiar with the website name and probably even check it out. This is one of the most reserved ways to promote affiliate link in online forums. This is a great option for someone who does not want to be as pushy about the advertising aspect. You can be more natural with the ad delivery by using forums in this manner. You can even begin visiting forums that you usually don’t, just to get your “signature” out there more frequently across the web. Many blogs also allow comment sections where you can leave your affiliate link in your “signature”, so take advantage of these avenues as well. You can also simply post advertisements into online forums. This is a more direct way of reaching those that read the forum. It is free indeed, however you need to be aware of a few things before using this approach. First, some online forum moderators do not allow direct advertisements on their boards. They usually don’t do this to be mean or unreasonable; they do it to avoid the entire forum being filled with advertisements. It is possible that you may be able to sneak an advertisement in without being scolded, but it is better to follow the rules. Another thing to consider when using direct advertisements in online forums is that the entire approach may seem a little pushy. Many people consider online forums as a place that is personal and free from annoying ads. Therefore, they may not respond well to a direct advertisement as they may see it as being made by an intruder that is not part of the normal forum “family”. Being bold enough to go this route however will most definitely give your affiliate link more traffic, because some of the readers will be prompted to check out more information from your post. When deciding to use online forums to promote affiliate link you need to consider what types of forums would be most appropriate for your posts. You can certainly use forums that you regularly comment within, even if they have nothing to do with your website. People who are use to seeing your comments will likely respond warmly to your website just because they consider you familiar. In addition to your regular forums, consider searching for forums that have some sort of a link to the content on promoted website. Overall, the more people you reach with your use of online forums to promote affiliate link, the more positive results you will see. Using forums are perfect for those on a tight budget who still want to promote their affiliate link. Just be sure to consider forum rules and choose an appropriate approach before posting. You don’t want to ruin your promoted website’s reputation or even the reputation of yourself. http://www.marzlist.com/Tracy Resource Box: =========================== Tracy Lahr is the owner of a newly borned "Let's Make Sales" website that offers tons of scripts, softwares, and ebooks with Resell Rights.

Hi What Tracy says above is only one aspcet of getting your site advertised for FREE. I am sure that you are aware of many locations & free advertising venues on the internet. A simple search for free ads, free advertising free forums, etc will get you so many places to advertise that you will be working on placing free ads for weeks to come. Don't let FREE make it as though they are not good forms of advertising, because you will get hits on a continuous basis if you FOCUS on doing it on a regular basis. But as Tracy above puts it, the signature is a great way to start and get things rolling in the FORUM Arena. Just thought I'd include the above in order to take advantage of the Freebies on the Internet. Happy advertising for FREEEEE, take advantage of it and save tons of money. ----------------------------------------- Place a FREE AD on me: http://FreeAdTraffic.com

Hi Marzlan, This is useful information for those wanting to start out slowly, although I believe, too slowly! I enjoy helping newbies learn and earn, and what Tracy suggests is not something I would. Regards,
