Thread: Suggestions?

I have recently made a forum. At this forum we provide members with free malware tech support to help them remove viruses, spyware, malware, etc. The forum is powered by mybb and looks pretty nice in my opinion. I would appreciate all suggestions to help make my forum better in any way!

LINK: hjtforum.info

P.S
I am NOT advertising. I am simply trying to get suggestions so my forum can reach it's full potential.

Thanks,
Charmz

You have a great forum! Just one suggestion, add more discussion section so that your first time visitor converts into member

Very good looking forum. The tutorials for self help look nice as well. Will look better as you get more discussions going. Try some article marketing to bring more visitors and keep adding content to keep them there.

Like they said more categories and you need some content, so members want to stay and stick.
Also make somethin unique and free others don't have and promote that on other simillar website/blogs/socail networks/forums

Thanks everyone! I added two more sections.

Could you give me any ideas to make my members stay?

This is something you need to figure out by your self.
If you are in the spyware, malware niche, try to make something valuable to your visitors which will help them remove that malware...

What first comes to my mind is something like browser toolbar with black listed sites and malware scripts which will protect your members....

Just use your imagination ...

That is actually a very good idea. :O

Thanks for the help.

Simply you can help your members in each problems. They'll be happy if they got some solution from your forum

Of course, that the point of the forum, to help people!

The question is, how do I get people to come to my forum?

To promote your forum you have to use other popular forum sources which must be relevant to your niche and you must place signature links in each post.

+ some search engine optimization for your main keywords
+ article marketing
+ paid posters(to jump start your forum), choose only quality posters
+ ppc(adwords, facebook)
+ banner adds on relevan sites/blogs/forums
+ top social networks
+ ....

You should do something interesting which makes visitor pleasure

Well you have to ask forum poster to for posting some hot topics due to which traffic is always high in your forum.
