At what point in the life cycle of a forum does it make sense to start spending money on advertising? Do you guys think about it in terms of ad dollars generated or in terms of site traffic?
I was thinking at start up, where you have less than 200 members as if you have mroe than 200 then normally it advertises itself in SEO etc.
Thanks, I'm at 70 members so far. Any suggestions on what advertising works and what doesn't for financial/investing forums?
You can use some of the free promotions over the web and get some new users for free... Here is a link: FREE PPC ADS. It gives you free $20 dollars in clicks. Good luck!
