    My forum is not getting as much traffic as it used to, but there is still active posting and new members signing up. The forum is about 2 years old www.ufc-forums.com

    Any suggestions?

    Start a youtube channel and use it to promote your forum. Do something like ESPNs sports central,,,, or whatever its called. Make some videos about the fighters, and predictions. After the fight, make a follow up video.

    Just take what companies like ESPN have done, and change it up to fit your needs.

    Have you thought about doing a talk show that is broadcast live from your site?

    Your site is infected. It has a virus just so you know.

    Huh? How is it someone from DP?

    And no clue how to fix it... probably in a template or plug-in or something.

    Might be a coincidence, but my site got attacked a couple hours after I posted on here.

    You posted about your site not getting as much traffic as it used to, and we just pointed out one reason why. Users using Chrome or malware blocking plug-ins for other browsers are going to get a giant red "Stop" when they try to go your site.

    That probably will deter a good amount of people from going to your site and probably why you are losing traffic... Seems a lot more logical to me than you thinking someone hacked your site and put it on there because you asked why you are getting less traffic.

    It seems it's no longer there anymore but if it's one of those FTP based attacks, you'll need to change your passwords and virus scan your computer as you might have some trojan that will keep updating the "attacker" and they'll just reinfect your website again. I had a similar problem before, was a pain to get rid of.
