Does Anyone Here Have A Gay Surfer Board Of Their Own?

**Lee** · 10-02-2004, 05:00 AM

Just wondered who here (if anyone) had their own message board for the surfers hitting their sites?

Has anyone tried this as a method of holding your surfers on your sites longer?

If so, how did you find it worked? If not, why not?

We have a forum over on Cum Soda that, quite frankly, is sucking LOL

We get lots of views but not many replies.

Anyone know how we can build up the surfer replies on the board over there?

Regards,

Lee

Yep had one for ages, never really pushed it either but i think a lot of the problem is they don't want to register in order to post... and it seems there are many more lurkers in any board than active posters.

What gets me is the board that gets sign ups but then they never post. Not sure if it is simply they sign up cause they think they get something for it or what.

Still having the board doesn't cost me really so i let it be. Just never actively pushed it within my site.

I've never had the forums. I was too afraid of seeing posts about my material! ha ha

Now marketing the forum on CumSoda could be fun.

(1)

Put five hot pics in a prominant place on your front page and have the user rate them.. after they click submit it takes them to the "General gay sex forum" where they can click on the PINNED thread that is titled "top model" ( or whatever you want to call it ) Then change the titles of the forum threads you have ( (12) Uncut Cock Pictures ) to "Forum exclusive: Uncut Cock Pictures" This should get traffic there.. and people are bound to start discussion.

(2)

On the front page of your site in a prominant position put "FORUM EXCLUSIVES" the pics link to the forum where only they can be found. Embed the images into the forum post so they don't have to click a link and exit the forum to see the pics. You should do that with idea (1) as well. See example below :high:

There are more things you can do as well but I have to get back to work :-D
