Morning!
Let me ask you one simple question:
Ever wish you knew what boards were talking about the niche in which you specialize, so you could join the community and begin to build up your reputation as a SME (subject matter expert)?
Make no mistake about it – getting known as THE authority in your industry can really increase the quality of traffic to your site (less tire-kickers! More buyers! Heaven!).
Enter Boardreader! This nifty neat site lets you query thousands of bulletin boards/forums and see not only relevant community sites, but also check out where your targeted customer audience is residing.
For example, let’s say that your site deals lots with, oh, say, fitness and strength-training for, hmmmm, women. Search for
and you’ll see the last 3 months of sites that have those particular keywords popping up in posts. From the sites returned, you can visit the forums in question and begin to build your own presence and authority as well.
This works for unique topics as well! Let’s say that your business deals with Malamooses (scroll down to halfway on that page to see my Malamoose). Okay, true, my Malamoose is really a Malamute. Search for:
and you’ll see the forums in which you can begin to showcase your knowledge.
Boardreader is only one of the several sites you can use for finding quality communities at which to showcase your knowledge. Other places include:
Remember, word of mouth is a terrific way to build business! Proactively getting out there and showcasing your wisdom and desire to freely help out is also a top-notch method – make certain you take advantage of it.
Enjoy,
Barbara
