One of the oldest forms of networking on the web, after bulletin boards, is the forum.
Nothing really has changed with forums since they first came on the scene. You participate, learn, answer questions, network, and hope that your signature file is exciting enough for people to click on.
In Power Linking I include forum participation as one of the top marketing tactics for links and for direct traffic.
That is still true today, as long as you are really participating and not simply “spamming” your way onto the forum by pretending to care.
Now, though, there is a new model on the web. It is a forum like any other with some powerful, paradigm shifting technology and genius at work.
What if you go to show an ad for your site every time you read a post or replied to one? What if you could earn ad views on a very popular forum you frequent simply by posting an article, question, or answer to someone’s problem?
Today, that forum exists. It is the brain child of Russell Brunson and it is the biggest thing to happen to forums since forum owners figured out how to integrate adsense and other ads into their systems. Actually, it’s way bigger than that, because this helps everyone who participates and not just the owner!
If you are looking for some easy traffic, branding, and links along with some killer marketing know-how and networking opportunities, check out Russell’s new forum with a twist.
It is definitely the envy of every expert marketer who didn’t think of it first, especially me! I am way mad that I didn’t think of this one!
