Paid for forum posting

Hi Tony

I have done forum posting before. Firstly Google Search becomes your best friend and secondly try setting up more than one user. Start having conversations with yourself. Just use different email addresses for each user. As this is a forum that belongs to your client you should not have a problem. Just tell him what your plan is.

It's the only time you can talk to yourself without anyone thinking you are crazy

Thats very true but would the client get upset that I am faking another user or would they support me on this? I mean that is a great idea and all but Im scared the client would think im cheating to just get their money faster?

I don't think what she said would be a problem once you explain to the client how hard it is to get a forum going and what strategies are need to give it a kick start.

Jus Be Frank.

I am here trying to get a forum up and running for my site at this very moment.

Best regards

Oh You have a very good point! I Think i will be bring that up to my client tomorrow! Also If you need help just PM! me

Most clients who pay people to get their forums going often ask for multiple users. If he has only hired you then you need to explain to him that it takes more than one to have a conversation He will understand that.

It depends on the person doing the forum posting. One poster with several accounts might be doing above average posting. If you are doing it casually without using proxies, it will be obvious at least to moderators that it is the same person.

This site has been recommended highly by a couple of people here. It was at least a couple of years ago, so that could have changed either way by now. It could be worse, or better.

In the other point of view it seem a little unethical, but I hope this is not the way our forums here run. I think if you post a very good point let's say personal tips to enhance or improve IM strategies, commenters will flood and some of them will thanked you too.

Perhaps you should suggest to your client that their money might best be spent on building a list, or marketing the forum to some degree.

It may be a better idea to actually raise the quality of the website so that other people want to get a back link from the forum in the form of signature, and in turn start posting in your new forum. Be genuinely reasonable in moderation and not be too harsh. And the forum should grown with time. It will take time. There is no short cut to success.

I would love to jump in here, while some clients are boosting new forums not all clients are. We personally deal with clients on both ends, some want extra content to stir up a dead forum others want to be able to launch a site with content to get the new visitors moving in the correct directions. At least 80% of our clients use our services along with other marketing tactics to do what they need for their campaign. Just because you have a website does not mean you are great at content, or have the time, or the patience.

Article clients use our services for blogs, press releases and SEO purposes. Our writers do not post "junk" as I have seen comments randomly on WF about some of our competitors - this is why we have been around longer and are more successful with a higher reputation.

I would love to hear the real debate of how what our writers do is "unethical" when tons of people here on WF are posting spun articles. Our writers from forum posting, to large content are paid for a service that we are providing with our company to our clients - all work is original and never spun. If you think that is "unethical" yet a spun article recycled 100x over is okay then I would really love to sell you a bridge.
