Do you spend a lot of time on your forum?

[Shawn Gossman]

I login to my forums usually every day. I try to visit the more active ones a few times a day, like AAF.

I try to post as much as I can, as well.

How about you? Do you spend a lot of time on your forum? Do you visit every day?

I think I spend around 2-3 hours a day easily on Administrata. One day more productive than the other though.

I'm about the same on my forums, throughout the day, that is.

Back in the day, I'd spend 6-10 hours a day on my forums. I'm way to into the outdoors and being active to do that today.

It's expected that if you have the mind to start a forum project, you should make out time to be active on it everyday even if it's for just one hour. Personally, if I'm using a forum where the owner is usually absent most of the time, I'll definitely quit it.

I’d honestly say I spend a couple of hours a day on my forum. Whether that’s improving certain topics, working on the directory, responding to current posts or marketing.

However, somedays I may spend a lot of hours on it. It all depends.

I am most of the time at my forum, not posting, but doing backend stuff (it's fun)

Does it mean that you hardly post on your forum? If that's so, I think someone might feel that you're not putting in more efforts in adding a little bit of content unless you're getting lots of contents from your members.

I'm about the same way these days.

All of them know I am working on the backend, I post updates on my profile about things I am doing though, and I answer any mention or pm right away. I tip them when I like their post as well.
I can't read all the content they put up, but when they need me, they just mention me and I am there in no time.

I try to put eyes on everything posted on the forum, even if I don't reply to it all. But I at least want to scan through it and make sure everything is compliant. I'm sure that gets more difficult with a big board, though,

I check in multiple times a day to make sure no post goes unanswered. Easy enough for my small forum.

I try to do that myself and if there isn't many posts, then I'll start adding more new topics.
