How are your forums? Mine all but dead!

I use to always run my forum with premium listing, but I have sense let it expire and I am going for the free stuff.

 

This is actually why I don't really like using paid services for anything forum related. Sometimes you get good results, while other times you don't, and really, I don't always trust purchasing things online to begin with as not all people are who they say they are. So really, I'm not exactly a huge fan of premium services myself, even if they come with good benefits.

 

If you don't restrict your forum (ratings-wise), your points will still go down anyways. You just need a forum that has posts, and yours certainly does.

 

Well, how's it going now that you're going for the free stuff? I also recommend trying to get 2 or 4 persons to exchange posts with every week or something - that way you have fresh content coming in. Have you ran any contests lately - and promoted among the webmaster communites?

 

If you post on other peoples forums you earn points. I am not going to buy any more points if I don't have to.

P.S. real posters are starting to trickle in now as well.

 

Glad to hear your changes are successful.

 

Good job bro. Keep us updated how the new posters do.

 

I agree with what the others said, you probably need to work harder on promoting your website, or simply give it time.

 

Give it some time.

 

The OP reported a while back that his forums picked back up after some changes, thus I am going to lock this topic
