Using communties to advertise and promote

More and more people join open communities and forums. Look at Youtube! it’s more then just a video site. it’s a community worth millions and millions of dollars and those who got in fast now have super video’s with over 100 million views. imagine what traffic you can bring to your other sites using a link in the description page. There are more good communities that can bring tremendous traffic to your sites, and I will show you where you can find them, and how you can maximize conversion and visitors to these pages.

Before I can publish some communties you should check out it is important you know what types of communties excist and are interesting to join.

Video sites
I’m sure you understand that video sites like youtube are great to promote your sites and products.

Ad-sharing sites
These sites let you create online content quickly and share the advertising income of your page with you. the great thing about ad-sharing sites is that they are quickly set-up and that you create single pages, single articles! most ad-sharing sites optimize fully for SEO and can get you a lot of traffic. just make sure you always create quality content

Forums
Every forum is a great to promote yourself and find new contacts. altough less good for creating big streams of visitors, putting your site in your signature on a forum does get you visits.

Publisher sites
These sites allow you to create content very quickly, just an article, no widgets and addon’s. and free. Like [url=http://www.ezinearticles.com]EzineArticles[/url] do not be surprised of the many reads your article will get, without promoting it at all one of my articles got 1000 views. and 50 click outs just like that!

Blogging sites
Every blogging site is a communty too. My wordpress blog pages get traffic comming from wordpress.com searches. and it all works out very well. The key trick is to limit your blog to have only a couple of major keywords. Only then you will create a succesfull and good blog that drives traffic to your other sites

Social sites
not the best, but this will get you SOME traffic. facebook, myspace,  and other social networking sites is what I mean. This category also covers social bookmarking sites and similar sites.

That’s about it. this page will hold links and info about sites in the above categories. all of them will help you to promote and get more traffic to the pages you want while you also earn money on pages you made for promoting your actual page!
