Hey all...Thought I'd introduce a new website/service that I've opened up for anybody interested in post exchanges. It's called Postloop, and it's the only active service of it's kind. This is a new website offering free, automated post exchanges. Basically what happens is that you submit your forums to Postloop and upload a single file to your forums that Postloop uses to track your forums. You can "subscribe" to any Postloop forum, make posts there, and earn points for any posts you make (automatically). As you do this, other Postloop users will join your forums, make posts, and earn their own points. What makes it nice is that you do not have to bother yourself with coordinating post exchanges yourself, and Postloop exchanges are not temporary - they will last for as long as you participate.

Nice project Ryan, Mikey posted a thread about it on my forum, might get a few ppl to sign up As I said on my site, it seems like an idea you had once before on a certain admin site, but better and dedicated.
Thanks Brandon and long time no talk. I always had "grand" ideas for PostFusion but just didn't have the resources or know-how to do it back then. The fact that it was a segment of AF and not standalone like Postloop did not help either. Postloop is already a better system than PostFusion, and I've got a lot of awesome ideas for it.
Love this If you want hard proof that it 'works', I signed up on 27 November 2010, here are some screenshots of one of my forums (The Geek District), as you can see, activity has gone up, and this is a forum which has basically lay dead for months on end.

I'm on the fence about trying my hand at a new forum, though driving traffic will be the most difficult. I've signed up to see how it works.
Things have been moving along nicely, and we've added a bunch of stuff recently. - We now support a handful of free hosts - Referral program launched (earn 10% of the points from people you refer, forever) - Earn bonus points for having a high rating/reputation We're well over 1,000 posts now - crossed that mark in less than 2 weeks
I use postloop quite a lot, I actually had there banner on my site for couple days. Picked up a few referrals. 20% commission for life ftw!
