    What incentives do you give to members who are really active? Do more forum owners need to jump on board with this? Do you think it would keep active member active?

    People not joining forums

    What do you think keeps people from joining most forums these days? Is it all to blame on social media? Is it to blame on outdated registration pages? What could it be, in your opinion?

    No Links Allowed on Big Boards

    Do you notice that many big boards don't allow signature links? Many smaller forums could benefit by having their signature link on Big Board posts. However, many of these larger forums prohibit signature links and self-promotion. Do you feel this is a common practice when a forum gets to a...

    Blog Growth Strategy Changes

    How have you changed your blog growth strategy over the years? For me, I started out blogging by just doing SEO and commenting on other blogs. Then I started doing more guest blogging and collaborations. Now I try to do more with social media marketing and paid acquisition. How about you all...

    Banned and now staff

    Have you ever banned a member only to let them come back and eventually make them staff on your forum? Or has this happened to you as a formerly banned member but then turned staff later on?

    Moderators must post

    How do you feel about forum owners that force their moderators to post? Some feel that moderators on a forum should also be tasked with helping to keep the forum active. This means they need to create new topics and reply frequently. Do you think this is a good strategy? Why or why not?

    Blog pages

    What all pages do you have on your blog? Do you have secondary pages like policies, contact, help pages, etc.?

    Daily blogging without help

    Could you make it as a daily blogger without help? Most daily blogs are either ran by people who just blog as their job, or they consist of multiple authors. Could you blog every day right now without multiple authors or would you need help? Why or why not?

    Ban = Enemy for Life

    If they have forced you to ban, then they have done something really bad. I feel like you're a lot like me and it takes a lot for you to consider a ban.

    All these extra features are just niche...

    I think it's easier if you start a forum with these features. If Digital Point or TAZ started adding them, I wouldn't think people would use them. Maybe I'm wrong but I kind of think this.

    Invision Invision Self-Host vs Cloud

    Start working on that now. Get a bike, take a hike, or go run ;)

    All these extra features are just niche...

    I've been monitoring forums lately. I've had discussion with some of you on how some software isn't modernizing. You preach that features like groups, blogs, galleries, and such out-of-the-box is what are hurting communities trying to evolve. I kind of have to disagree just based on...

    Domains Domain doesn't match forum

    It could be. However, I've seen one domain with keywords that were completely unrelated to the forum niche it was being used for, but they would try to "brand" the domain name keywords with the forum and its niche.

    Comment Exchanges

    Have any of your ever done blog comment exchanges? I see blog comments differently than forum posts. You need posts of a forum in order for the forum to look active. But on a blog, the main articles are the important thing. Comments are really only important if they're real and you're actively...

    Treating your forum like a business

    Do any of you treat your forum like a business? Listen, even if you don't want to or plan to monetize, having a business-minded look to your forum can be extremely beneficial. Every topic YOU make is a product so that can motivate you to make the best content. Every member is a customer...
