Back in the heady days of ‘anything goes’, Internet marketing forum spamming was all the rage. The forum owners didn’t like it and put steps in place to stop it. Those steps worked, but the traffic is still there for the siphoning. The only change is that you first have to be a bit more engaged with the other forum participants. Most forums require you to have multiple posts before you can have a footer. The footer is where you put your links to your money pages. The great thing about this is that when you qualify for the footer, it goes on all your posts, not just the new ones, so the qualifying posts become valuable as well. Building up your qualifying posts involves answering relevant questions about the product you want to promote and providing real, honest, valuable answers without naming the product. Most people can create enough posts in a day or so, meaning that you can have live humans landing on your pages in less than a week. Then, all it takes is an hour or so a day on multiple forums to get a steady flow of people arriving where you want them to go. A big tip that should be obvious is to ensure the forums you’re posting on are active, have many members, and rank for the niche you are promoting. ChatGPT or Bard will happily give you a list of forums in your niche. The Google Keyword Planner tool, or any other keyword tool, will tell you the volume of traffic and the main ranking keywords for each forum. Another big tip is to use an AI tool to compile enough content regarding the niche to put into a PDF or a Google Doc to use as your front-end page. If it’s a useful resource, the forum owner and subscribers will thank you for the content, even if it includes a link to a sales page. You could collect email addresses via the Google doc if you wish. People are happier to give you their email address if you have already given them some useful content. Try it. You might find it’s far easier than anything else you might have tried. If you want to build an email list from this method it would be useful to create an email sequence for the subscribers as well. Any AI tool can do this for you, so you have something in place that you can rewrite later. Free platforms that you can use for this are LeadsLeap and Systeme. Both have a free level, both have built-in autoresponders, both have easy-to-use page builders, the funnel builder in Systeme is easier to use, and LeadsLeap has built-in traffic.
