According to Wordtracker "CPA" is searched 500/day. And Overture figure is 3071/day . I visited that website and saw very very few posts. http://www.cpaforums.com I want to hear your comments about the situation. Webmaster most like to post on forums and least likely to click on ads.On the other side non-computer related fields least like to post on forums and most likely to click on ads. This is the situation which i see on that website. So how these type of forums can be made so that non-computer related persons change their attitude and populate forums ? Do you have any idea or suggestion ?
Make sweet buttons and such stuffs(not spammy, but sweet).. and have an easy GUI with less options but it must look normal, if it doesn't looks normal than they will become restless and close the window because they don't understand it.
So you're getting lots of hits but no members? Could be because the regular people types don't understand why they should join. What's in it for them? This is a pretty standard forum layout which is fine if people know what the forum is and why they should be a part of it. A good intro statement could be really helpful here.
Try and come up with a value-add - like a free service (can be small), a product review, or something of value. Then, you can encourage people to talk about it..
How does Wordtracker and Overture's figure matter when you are nowhere to be found for the keyword "CPA" under G, Y and M? When you finally reach the top 10 of that keyword, I bet you'll see posts.
here i want to admit this is not my forum site. i just wanted take review of it.At last why it is not an active forum.
