Copyright Tyler Pratt http://makemoneyprivate.com When was the last time you did a search for your niche and added the word "forum" to the end of that keyword? Something like this "Diet+forum". If you have not done a search recently for forum,then now is the time to start. Online forums that are popular, is a great way to promote your website andgain trust within that community. Let's take for example the very popular community warrior forum. This is a community of people who are interested in Internet marketing. If you create a product like an e-book, then this would be agreat place to promote that product. But you have to do it the correct way. The first thing you want to do is sign-up for afree account. Then go to the account area and add your link in the signature. It's best if you link back to your blog or product sales page. Now you can start posting comments and being active in this forum. The most important part is to make sure that you areposting quality content. Try not to be a spammer and just post junk. This will not give you any credibility and you'll not last long on that forum. If you write high-quality articles that you post on article directories, then post these on the forum. Others will comment on your post and usually thank you. After a few months you will have built up a reputation as someone who is helping others in the forum. This gains a lot of trust, and people are more likely to click on your link to your website. The forum is not the place to gain back links, because most places have a no-follow policy on their links. The forum is the best place to market for direct traffic.
