    How do you make a community feel like home to your audience?

    It's only when your community feels like it's a home that you're going to have loyal members. This is because today in the forum field, loyalty is fleeting and if don't do everything possible to keep yours, it's going fly away before you know it. How do you keep your members being loyal to...

    Which one rule would you change if you're a mod for a day in a forum?

    There are so many different rules in different forums. Some of them are the same throughout while others differ in one way or another. Do you think all forum's rules are good that they don't need to be changed? What's the one rule you're going to change if you're made a moderator for a day...

    Require Real Names Instead of Usernames

    Making a rule that user's real name is what they are going to use to register is something I will never agree with and I'm never going to approve that kind of thing in my community but if the user prefers to register with their real name, I don't have any problem with it. I'll always have it in...

    Are traditional forums dead in the age of Social and Reddit?

    The biggest discouragement anyone is going to have as a forum owner would be thinking that he or she is going to compete with social media platforms today because it is completely impossible to do that. It's okay to look at being like reddit but never social media platforms like Facebook, X...

    Is gaming the hardest forum niche out there?

    Yes, gaming is indeed a very saturated niche because there are so many of them out there. It does go a long way to prove how much people take up gaming as their hobby. But in everything, that doesn't mean a gaming forum can't be successful too. It all depends on how much the admin/owner is...

    Banning domain names and email domains

    I think it's a very good thing to ban such email and domains because they are usually been used to create account which will be used to spam either a blog or forum. This is the reason why I don't approve any account that is created using a temporary email.

    Banned for Disliking them?

    It's very wrong for anyone to be banned simply because they are disliked by the forum admin. It's more like the same thing with being a racist as far as I'm concerned. Such a forum deserves to die off.

    Do you use your real name on your blog?

    Over the years since I started using blogs and forums, I have never used my real name. It's always my screen name which is "Heatman" I constantly work with. Recently, I think it was last week that I used my real name in a gaming forum. I just felt like using it but it wasn't my full name but...

    What’s your favorite way to reward active members?

    The tip you're talking about is micro-likes right? I think it's the only way I've seen member's earn something from getting their posts liked in a forum where micro-likes is enabled.

    What’s your take on mobile apps vs. mobile browsers for forums?

    Yeah, that's very correct. There aren't so many general discussion forums now like they used to be and just like I said initially, a lot of guys who would be interested in starting a new general discussion forums think it won't get much attention because people no longer value them like they...

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

    I wish I knew that it cost money to run a really successful forum. Yeah, I know that it's possible to run a forum with using free tools but how much success can that get for you? I don't think it's much since I know better now because I used to think it's possible to do it without investing...

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

    Honestly, most personal blogs I've seen are not being maintained and updated regularly by the owner. It's probably because I feel that it gets tiring for them when it seems like not many people are taking interest in following those blogs. I'm not keeping any at the moment but maybe in the...

    Too Much Blog Spam

    AI techs have been struggling with handling for so long. It's even the same thing outside forums/blogs too. Even in social media platforms like all Meta products, their AI algorithms struggle with handling spam as they keep mistaking so many things as spams which aren't spams actually.

    Do newbies get too much abuse?

    Spot on! I love it so much when I read any forum's rules and see where it's stressed very much that forming a clique in the community is seriously frowned at because serious actions will be taken immediately against such. It's one way to deter them from operating in a forum without caution.

    About Page Information

    To the best of my knowledge, about page is considered as your first handshake with the audience which makes it very important. It's the first thing that helps you build trust with your audience. This is why your about page should answer these questions; Who are you? What’s this site about...

    Is your forum a dictatorship?

    Well, looking at what real dictatorships is about, I wouldn't say forums are run that way because with real dictators, they don't work with rules or care about how what they do affect those under their rule. If forums are said to be like that in way because the last decision is carried out by...

    Paid advertising for your blog

    Yeah! The simple truth is that everything will be a lot easier advertising on forums because you're already working with the right users that are already into forum's usage until social media platforms with so much noise which makes targeting very hard.

    Is a chat box a good idea?

    Unfortunately, the biggest problem with shoutboxes is taking away important discussions on the forum and having more activities on the shoutbox. I've seen it happen over and over again in so many forums.

    Stolen Blog Content

    Wow, that's interesting. It's my first time of hearing a Russian webhost approve DMCAs by Americans. It's a new change I never expected to be possible but never say never.
