How to Use Article Marketing in Forums
A forum is a place where people gather to talk about a particular subject. Just about every niche
you can think of has a forum on the web. You should seek out forums that are related to the
product(s) or service(s) you offer, because it is here you will find individuals that can find your
article content beneficial. These are the same people you want to target and bring to your website
converting traffic to paying customers.
How to Find Relevant Forums
Finding relevant forums to effectively market your articles isn’t as tough as you may think.
These forums are also great places to create backlinks. When you are looking for article
marketing on forums you don’t have to locate do-follow forums because while the backlinks are
useful your real focus is on getting views to your article. There are two methods you can use to
find forums that are relative.
1. In the search engine type in your keyword and then the word forum. It would look like this
keyword + forum.

keyword. It will return those forums that are most relevant.
How to Effectively Article Market Using a Relevant Forum
After you’ve located relevant forums you’re ready to start to effectively article market. Join the
forum, and then set up your profile. It’s the signature that’s most important to you. It is here you
will do your article marketing. You will use your signature to post links to market your articles.
For example, if you just wrote an article on “how to build a bird house,” you would create your
html signature with the keyword birdhouse. Then you would look for threads that are relevant.
The key to effective article marketing is to not come across as spamming. Participate in
discussions and provide information that is relevant and useful. People will then click on your
link to read your article. You can change your signature and html any time you need to.
How it all Ties Together
If you want to increase your revenue you need to increase the traffic to your website. When you
use forums that are related to your niche or market, the traffic that clicks your article link is
already targeted and much more likely to purchase. You will need a strong call to action to close
the deal on your site.
Forums are one of the best forms of free advertising available to the online entrepreneur and yet
far too often they are overlooked. Don’t make the same mistake as your competition.
