When posting in forums, you can post anywhere, but look for threads that get the most activity. With most forums, the Main Discussion threads oftentimes receive the most posts, so you might want to focus on this area in the beginning. Starting your own thread or discussion can also produce a lot of action, especially if the topic is one that is dear to all. When someone posts to your thread, you can respond back with a reply, and if the thread is a hot one, it could continue for a long time, allowing you to quickly accumulate a lot of posts and backlinks to your site. And backlinks are what it's all about!
If you're not familiar with a backlink, it's simply a incoming link to your site. As mentioned previously, every time you add a post, you potentially add another link back to your site. If you make it a point to add 1 post to 5 forums a day, in a month you would have the potential of 150 backlinks to your site! Another neat bonus of frequent postings is the fact that active forums are often indexed by Google and other search engines, which means that you should also pick up more traffic from the search engines. Talk about a win-win situation.
To sum it all up, you can get a huge amount of long term traffic by posting in forums on a regular basis. While it takes some time and effort, it's one of the best FREE ways to get good targeted traffic to your site. Start today to take advantage of this excellent method of increasing your exposure and traffic! Join a few forums and start posting!
