    Hi guys,

    Has anyone any experiences with any forum boosters, companies that make good posts on your forum when your forum is new to get visitors and members? If yes please tell me wether it's good or not? Or which company you recommend!

    Thanks alot,

    Nima

    In my opinion it all starts with marketing your site, Sure you can pay to have posters come to your site and post but what happens when you stop paying?
    Well, If you still have not promoted your site then you probably still wont have any posters. So my advice is to first build a marketing plan and stick to it. Buy text links banner spots and word of moth is also good.
    Choice is yours though.

    Good info by doot as far as I am concerned. My site isn't really a forum, but I think it needs the same type of marketing. I tried google, and yahoo to adverstise my site. Yahoo has perfomed very well for me. My members are still coming back too.

    i dont think there are companies doing this type of work , you must see other forums and email peoples (who you think are best posters) to post on your forum (for money)

    I recommend www.postonmyforum.com

    I used to own it, not anymore, but the new owners are great guys. The site has a good reputation and you can see testimonials from past clients on their site.

    What happens when the paid posters leave? The traffic goes with it.

    You'll end up like a crackwhore - always strung out looking for more paid posters.

    paid posting is good, but it is much better in my opinion to get real, unique visitors, not just ones that write things just to make a buck.

    read www.diet2live.com

    I used ForumBooster.net a large number of the post (about 400) are by them..

    It didn't make the forum take off.. but it did help...
