Do you add your forum(s) to topsite directories? You know, the ones where you get a link to have your visitors/members click in order to boost your ranking on the topsite (for example, TheWebTower). I participated in multiple top sites with one of my former forums, and some of the members did religiously click for us. It was a free and easy way to get some additional traffic, but it's nothing spectacular. Do you participate in topsites? What are your thoughts on them? Have they worked for you?
I do, but because I actually own a topsite, it's kinda required. Okay, I only have my site on my own topsite and nowhere else, but hey, I don't join sites at random much any more.
I've been debating this one for about a year now. There is a couple of these topsites just for my niche but I'm just not sure I want their buttons on my site. Do you or any9one else feels like this could be a good move?
That is the main reason I don't want their buttons or links on my site. It just seems like it would funnel traffic away from your site.
I tried one once but it didnt require a link on your own site. It brought very little traffic and was a waste of time to be honest.
I don't, I think they are a waste of time. It seems like something that may of worked in the 1990's, but IMHO they are just about worthless now.
Couldnt have said it better To be perfectly honest I think that youre more likely to get more traffic from a signature on AA to a completely unrelated forum than by using one of those topsites.
