Traffic Drill

This is a pay membership forum that I’ve been using for a few weeks now.  When I signed up it was $14.95/month, but I’m not sure what they’re charging now.  They guys who run the forum are the Rhodes Brothers, and they sure seem to know their stuff when it comes to internet marketing.  Plus they offer a no-questions-asked money-back guarantee.

The idea is simple yet very effective, in my opinion:

  • Start a thread with details about your site that you want to generate more traffic to, containing:
    • URL
    • Description
    • Keywords
  • Other members then submit your site to social bookmarks (or other backlink sources), such as Digg, StumbleUpon, Delicious, Slashdot, Diigo, Google Reader, etc. etc. etc.
  • You return the favor by doing the same when you see similar requests

This system is huge for building search engine credibility.  It’s one thing to always just submit your own sites to social bookmarks, but if other people are also doing it, it helps that much more.  Plus, the social bookmarking sites won’t be suspicious if you’re submitting many different links rather than your own repeatedly.

To be honest I wish the forum was a bit more active (ie. had more members).  However, more and more folks are joining each day so I wouldn’t be surprised if the activity exploded soon.

If you’re interested, check it out.

This forum was recommended to me by my friend Trent, who actually introduced me to the world of internet marketing.  It was the first IM forum I registered for, and I’m damn glad I did.

Warrior Forum

There’s sooo much information in the WarriorForum comunity that it’ll make you sick.  That’s not hard to believe since they’ve been around since 1997.  Old school!

When I started out with IM I had tons of questions, there was so much information to take in at once, and I felt like my brain was going to explode.  But luckily the WarriorForum has almost all the answers I was looking for, and if I couldn’t search and find an existing thread that had the solution, I’d just start a new one and get a response really quick.

And did I mention that it’s 100% FREE!?

The best part is that the members are super nice and everyone seems to help each other out.  There’s lots of idea sharing and nobody seems to hate on “newbies” like you’ll find in many other forums.

Can you tell that I’m a HUGE FAN? ;)
