Forum Marketing | Become Known Before Posting Links

The worst thing you can do is join a forum and immediately start throwing your link around. That’s actually the best way to get banned faster than you can imagine. It is a much better tactic to start posting and adding valuable input to questions and generally getting to know the other members first.

After you’ve “paid your dues”, you can start to put your website in your signature file and show that you’ve got a great website to offer. Remember, you want to entice people to visit your site, so make sure your text in your signature file is interesting enough for people to click on.

By waiting before you show your link you’ll build trust. This is what will get people to visit you and to listen to what you have to say as an expert in your niche.
