    Do Personal Blogs Still Matter, or Are They Just Online Diaries No One Reads?

    I think you're right. :) I don't think personal blogs make a lot of money these days but if you want one to keep updated, I'm sure you can develop some sort of follower and fan base, even from those who actually know you. I've struggled with keeping a personal blog. I should do it just to do...

    Too Much Blog Spam

    I definitely want comments. I love it when engagement happens. But today I went to look for an option to remove the ability to input a URL on the comments and that option doesn't exist!!! You either have to edit the code or add an addon to make it to where a comment form doesn't have the URL...

    How to turn lurkers into loyal active members – what’s worked for you?

I pester them enough in PM until they start talking back, and then I refocus on relationship building. I create a friendship that encourages them to come back and chat with me more. Then...

    Forum marketing in the age of short attention spans

    People don't read long posts anymore. I see some of you posting them. I imagine it's for SEO reasons, but other than that, humans aren't primarily focusing on long content anymore. So, should we be creating shorter and more scannable content? If not, justify why we shouldn't!

    The Anatomy of a Perfect Forum Homepage

    What's a perfect forum homepage? What does it look like to you? Of course, most are going to include the category and board structure as the main content but there can be other widgets and sidebar as well. Or should there not be any of that? Is the perfect forum homepage simply just a forum...

    What’s the #1 thing you wish you knew before launching your forum?

    I wish I knew that forums take time to grow. In the early days, I wanted my forums to become big boards so badly that I would never give them a chance to florish on their own.
