How do I get people to spam on my forum?

12 replies
Hello, I'm conducting an experiment... and I need spam bots to post on my forum. How would I attract them?

I'm using auto back link generators to help..

I don't care if the site gets black listed.

Thanks

    Interesting... I ran a forum about 2 years ago in a foreign language. After a couple of months I start seeing viagra posts and other spam. Don't worry man, the spammers will find you once you're listed in the search engines.

    If you want more spam, disable any kind of captcha for user registrations too.

    Make sure you create a few general categories like "introduction" "general" "off topic" and such.

    They'll come, don't you worry

    Why would you want to spam your own forum? If you recently installed a product that prevents spammers, let it do it's thing and when the timing is right you will be able to see if it works as described.

    This is intriguing! Why on earth would you like to spam your website, and why wouldn't you even dare care if it gets blacklisted? Other people work their butts hard just to avoid penalties and worst - get blacklisted. So the big question is WHY?

    I own a few forums and believe me the spammers will find you. If i set up a new forum spammers seem to find it before the site has even been launched

      If the forum or whatever website gets indexed by google, its not anonymous anymore.

    You could always send emails to some addresses that have spammed you before, from an email on that domain.

    I have no idea what will happen, but it certainly seems like it would have some effect.

    Sort of like poking a bear...

    Spam bots usually attack high demand niches and or those which relate to those niches in some extent; Forums and blogs are their favorite target! Try to improve your forum's position and keep posting your link back comments on those sites which search engines generally don't like and or charge high rates. I hope this will help you in getting more and more spam bots.

    Moreover, install a php forum because these bots really like it from a long time.

    Enjoy
