I am wondering if any one has tried that. I am seeing better activity these days on my webmaster trading related forum and thinking may be its the right time to go the adsense route. Please let me know if any one of you have tried it before. Thanks! Chodhry
There are so many webmaster forums out there that advertising on AdWords probably wouldn't do you much good at all. People seeing the ad would just think "Oh, another one..." and totally ignore it. From experience, I found that a good forum contest usually brings alot more activity (such as making a raffle for an iPod or PSP). If you were to start a contest and then advertise that contest on AdWords, that would bring you much more traffic than if you just advertised your forum without an incentive. Incentives are usually the only way to start up a young forum.
