I know most of you are here trying to find the right programs
that will make you money. Yes, this is a great forum where
you will LEARN AND EARN. But please be very careful - there
are so much programs here that can make you great money
or you can lose big time. Perform all the due diligence before
you invest any money.
Take a look at the program top to bottom, bottom to top,
sideways - both ways. How long has the program been
running? How much it cost? Is it legal? Is it worldwide?
Can you quit anytime?
There are programs that are so tempting to join such as
HYIPs and Autosurfs and Forex and others that offer so
much high returns. Be very careful with them - they are
very risky programs - yes, you may make money if your
timing is right but it is always very risky.
I have tried them many times and made some money and
invested more money and more money - out of greed and
ended up losing thousands.
OK, that is just the beginning of what I have to tell you.
Again, please be very careful. The next thing I want to tell
you is how to keep up with what is going on.
Scroll towards the top of this page until you can go no further,
about halfway and towards the right - click on "view new post"
That will show you all the new posts for the day. Check that
everyday and see what is getting a lot of attention - see how
many people are participating in the discussion, check out the
program and so on.
OK, that is all for today - I will come back here and add more
tips to this discussion. See you all later!

When participating in forums....you need to "BRAND" yourself.
What do I mean by branding yourself? You need to let other forum
members know what kind of person you are, what are your specialties,
what kind of benefits they can get from you and what kind of
knowledge you are willing to share.
Branding yourself will get you some followers, who will look at what
you have to say, what kind of jokes they will enjoy reading, what kind of
motivational thoughts you are willing to share and what programs are
working for you and how they too can benefit from them.
You need to be amusing, knowledgeable, and for the most part, willing
to share what will benefit other members.
This subject is important - and you really need to get started "branding"
yourself. Get some followers and even get referrals for your businesses.
Everybody knows "branding" look at NIKE, Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola
......McdDonald, Jack-N-the Box you see their billboards and TV commercials
every where and they are all getting customers.

There's nothing wrong with using forum posting to generate traffic... as long as your posts are something of value to others..... many of us have joined a handful of forums for this purpose. You've been taught that by your.... But this doesn't mean to abuse... that lessons the quality and usefulness of the forum. Here are some Ideas, thoughts for you to juggle around in the hopes that we an make all the forums we contribute to better.
We've All Seen And/Or Experienced This...
Have you noticed that in many forums you can't show you sig (that of course contains your website link until you've made, in some cases at least 25 posts. That can be discouraging to some. I've seen some reference to this somewhere in here. Then you say to yourself, "my G_d, I've got to come up with 20 0r 25 valid, useful, helpful, posts before I can even get my sig seen"? Feels like a job, right? Well it is... but while you're building up those 20 or 25 posts, you're getting you're feet wet as to how the forum operates and the kind of folks and ideas that are part of it.
"Wow, Thanks For That Great Info."
And if you just make a bunch of simple, nothing of real value type posts, just to get your numbers up, you look spammy and of course, you will not be taken seriously down the line... you know the kind of posts I'm talking about.... "wow, thanks for that great info". "I agree with so and so". "I'll give that a try". etc.
Quick Trick... but a legitimate one....
A way to get post numbers up a much faster without looking spammy, is to ask for a review of your site. Just ask for a review, a critique of your site. Make a post saying something like, "Hi folks, I'm trying out a new type of squeeze page that's a bit different then what I've done in the past". I would be grateful if I can get an honest critique and some first impressions. Here's the link. Thank you" (That's 1 post) And, you might learn something about how to improve your site.
A Lot More Posts Comin...
When you get your first answer....something like.... "it seems a little busy", you reply, thanking them and asking if they could explain further, or if they might have any suggestions. (That's 2 posts) If you continue to reply to all answers in this manner, (with real questions) you can have 10 posts completed on just one thread... without being spammy.... and... this does something else. Because you're asking for help, you are putting up in the post, your link.... which you were told you could not do until you've posted x amount of times. Most MODS will let you post your site link if you're asking for help with it.
Some Other Ideas....
Don't post to the same forum everyday. Pop into different forums at different times during the week. Don't post everyday to a particular forum. That feels, and looks like a 'panic' mode type of thing.
Also, when you get to a forum, just relax, do a 'look around' and read posts to see if anything strikes your fancy. If you find one, post. If not, don't post, and take off. Never post for the sake of posting. If you can't offer something real, don't offer anything. After 3 to 5 minutes of glancing, and nothing feels right, leave! Don't post for 'small talk'... It's a waste of time and does not contribute. I would rather find something that I feel is a valid post that I could contribute to, or I'd rather not post.
If you do it this way, you'll gain time to do other things. IMO, when you, all-of-a-sudden, start showing your face everyday and posting, posting, posting, especially if the posts are not particularly helpful, you will not be taken seriously. You'll just be a "wow, thanks for that great info." and an, "I agree with so and so." type of poster. Not a pro.
Think About This...
When someone just joins a forum, and within a weeks time they have 20-30 posts. Isn't it kinda obvious what's going on.... they can't possibly be, all of a sudden,'THAT INTERESTED' in that forum and it's members. They can't possibly be reading and getting a feel for that forum in order to become a valid contributor, especially they're so busy posting... it becomes obvious that they're just working toward getting their links up. People can spot this... and again, won't take you serious down the road. So, go slow, (accept for my little trick) and post just a couple of times a week, and increase your posts with time. It's more natural to others. It's like 'building' on a friendship.
Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder
You've heard that "absence make the heart grow fonder" I would rather make some super valid/helpful post and disappear for a few days, then, go back in a couple of days and do it again. If you make a great post, and disappear for a while, and repeat that kind of thing, I believe that the 'perception' created of you will be one of value. People will be looking for your posts... and when that happens... look out?
I Can Prove This To You...
What happens when we see a post by a veteran of a forum? That's right! Everybody wants to see it. When we see a certain name, we go "OH, so and so posted", and we jump right over to it.
Anyway, the short tip would be.... just like the lottery, make some 'quick picks', and get on to something else. Don't get mentally over-involved with any 'one' thing.... make your post and 'Let It Go'... Hit and Run...But, have that 'Hit', mean something! Mean something to you, as well as others.
See ya later....
