Attention Forum Owners - ThreadSoup.com is in BETA [FREE Traffic]

    Hi everyone.

    I'm testing out TS and ensuring I get all the bugs worked out before going fully live.

    About TS
    The site is basically a digg style site for forum threads. Forum junkies and fans can gather to find cool new threads on forums from all over. The site will allow you and your members or visitors to submit cool, interesting, or downright funny threads they find on your forums. This will attract new members to your forums but most importantly it'll add great exposure to your forums and allow people to see the best threads your forum has to offer. Whether they be directly related to your overall forum topic or offtopic stuff.

    Remember it's in BETA
    I'm just looking for a few people to join and submit threads from their forums and let me know if you find any bugs. This way your threads will also be on teh front page this week when I begin advertising and driving traffic to the site. I plan to advertise it on my high traffic sites and pay for links on other high traffic sites so the traffic increase will be substantial. I'll also be promoting on myspace.

    Feel free to give me some feedback on how I can improve.

    So...how long before our submissions go from "queued" to the active list on the front page?

    Since it's in BETA it only takes 2 votes and you automatically have 1.

    I'll be going through and voting for sites all day for the next few weeks.

    As I continue to advertise it I know others will as well just to test it out.

    Looks cool so far- though a little clunky sometimes.
    Care to share which software you used to accomplish this?

    great idea. Will have a look at your site.

    I recommend submitting your site to Digg, Reddit, Netscape etc.
    I think you will get a good response.

    However what method will you use to check that forum threads are posted and not blogs or sites?

    You can do it manually but when traffic increases i can see a problem.

    It will be like Digg does. Users vote pages to the front. If a member tries to scame the system they'll get no votes and no front page.

    Feel free to add he RSS feed to your blog :)

    Thanks to all the BETA testers. We are now officially ready to go live.

    Also ThreadSoup no longer requires users to register to post your forum threads.

    Now you or your users can stop by and post as many threads as you like whenever you like. FREE backlinks!
