Honestly, I've read the book "The Circle of Profit" by Anik Singal. He said Forums is of the 3 most profitable traffic so I type on google: "Best Internet Marketing Forums". Actually, I do not clear much about it. I will be happy if you can drop a message clarify it.

Warriorforum ranks the first. But I see it is required fee to upgrade.

My question is, Is it worth upgrading? Any of you here are not free members?

I appreciate all of your comments. Thank you very much. (-:

Thank you very much again.

Thank you very much.

    Forums are really a great way to drive traffic to your site. You will get some quality visitors from it. I am also using forum promotion as one of my marketing techniques and the result are very good and satisfactory.

      Her actual question is whether it pays to upgrade. I assume she means upgrade to the War Room.

      If you want the benefits of that forum including freebies, advice and review products members give away to other members or if you have some of your own products to give away then join. But if you are just joining to get more traffic it may not be worth it.

      However one great benefit I did like is they give you 500 gig of inbox space I think so you don't have to worry about your in or send box getting full too quickly.

    Forums are the absolute KILLER for traffic. The reason being that the traffic is super targeted.
    There are also Warriorforum Classified Ads with which you can get traffic. They are like ads. You can get fast quality traffic with 'em!

    For what are you aiming to get traffic?

      Exactly this, i think many people use forums for spamming their links - this will most likely get you banned. If you add value to the community, there's no reason why you shouldn't be paid back though...

    Any internet marketing forums are great to get traffic. You can post your link to your website 1 time on each forum to avoid spamming and get traffic that way.

    I bought lifetime access to the War Room for $20. The benefits outweigh the costs in my opinion.

      This is simply not true. Many/most forums will not allow even one link.

    Forum posting is one of the most helpful source for acquiring backlinks as well as traffic, But keep in mind to engage in the relevant forums to your industry or niche. It's usually much time consuming process, but once you have sufficient number of valuable posts, replies, or answers, your profile rating get high and you have less difficulty in acquiring relevant backlinks.

    Yes, Forum is a great way to bring the traffic to your website, it is excellent way to gain the traffic but there are having certain rules and regulations of Forum posting and everyone has to follow that rules before posting.
    Well, in forums you have to be very genuine and post on the thread which you understand well and give appropriate answer for the thread.
    Don't spam on the forum site, always try to post relevant stuff, read thread two to three times before posting otherwise you will banned by the moderators.
    I would suggest first to build some reputation by posting some excellent post and after understanding overall forum and rules well you can go with paid membership, it will not be worth for you after understanding every aspect of forum, you can do best after that.

    Besides getting traffic, forums are also a great way to network with others.
    This is what most people have forgotten. Most people use forums to build links and drive traffic, but they forgot that they are actually interacting with real people. And that's networking.

    Forum marketing might be the most underutilized traffic generation strategy on the planet. Industry forums are a watering hole of potential leads and customers. However, simply creating a signature and leaving generic posts isn't going to get you a tidal wave of traffic.

    Each time you make a post or start a thread you can leave a backlink to your website thus increasing your rankings. Be consistent with your posting and make sure to include other backlink sources with linking to different pages of your domain and not just one single page all the time.

    There are many traffic ways available online. You can use anyone, which one you think more effective. But you should not depends on one way only. You can use multiple ways, if you want. Such as you can use Forum posting, Article submission, Social Media sites, relevant blog commenting & so on. Thanks for your advance.

    Forum is a great Source of Traffic. It depends what you are promoting. There is a forum in almost every niche, you just have to google "Your specific niche"+"forums" and it will give you hundreds of results. You can join as many forums you like and if they allow a link in signature, you can drive traffic from there by posting valuable content and getting people's attention.

    I have had great success using forums.

    I have found that the best results come when you add value to the community. By adding value can as easy as helping someone using your own expertise in your field.

    Warrior Forum has many members here that simply aim to keep people motivated and in positive frames of mind. For some this is a tremendous benefit to share the struggles of building an online business.

    Hey Davntt,

    I'm in the process of reading ''The Circle of Profit'' book by Anik Singal - It's a Great HQ book!!

    I have reached the part where he talks about how to get Traffic, and yes - he said that Forum Marketing is the best free method of generating traffic... but he also said that it takes a lot of time to get decent traffic.

    According to his words; if you don't have money, then you need to invest your time to get money.

    If you are in the Internet Marketing Niche, then Warrior Forum will be a great traffic source for your website, you can just Add a link to your Squeeze page in your forum signature and you're good to go.

    But don't forgot about other MMO forums like BlackHatWorld, DigitalPoint and WckedFire... those forums combined generate millions of visitors per day... you can potentially generate a lot of traffic.

    Good luck

    forum is one of the cheapest steps in getting traffic, but you should also think of other way in having more traffic . since there are rules that needs to be followed in forum, but being honest and true is also considered, by this it will just be spread of mouth

    Upgrading to the War Room isn't really all that special. Last time I checked the only perks to upgrading are that you can post to the Warrior Special Offers section.
