    Is it possible to get maximum traffic by doing only forum posting? Not any other off page activities.

    Forums are a good source to get traffic from but you can't expect too much from "only" working on forms.

    I would suggest you to utilize other resources like article marketing and social bookmarking to get loads of traffic.

    Good luck,

    To get the good traffic, forum posting is not enough. You should do all the OFF page activities for getting good traffic.

    A way to get traffic? Yes. A way to get MAXIMUM traffic? No. You can't put all of your eggs in one basket. Sure, I've gotten some great clients from forums. However, I've also gotten some great clients from Twitter and my article marketing campaign. The best marketing strategies are well-rounded. To get the most traffic, you need to take advantage of a variety of techniques.

    I always try and refrain from putting "all my eggs in one basket". Spread your sources of traffic around and you will achieve greater growth in the long run. I would just experiment with social networking and social bookmarking and see how it goes if I were you. If you find out from the results that forums bring you the most traffic and are well worth your time, stick with what works ;).

    Forum posting is good to get traffic and back links. But not much traffic can be expected from forums. Perform social media and social networking activities to get maximum traffic

    Hi,

    In my own experiences, forum posting would be a nice channel for back linking purpose but not the best for traffics. Social media would work better for traffic purpose.

    all the best,

    Yes.. You have to participate in every thread. Become very active member and you will see a huge traffic on your website because members will start remembering your URL and they will start visiting..
