30 day plan - Internet Profits - Day 7

Day 7: Forums

Go back to google.com and search for "recipe forums" and/or "cooking forums" (or whatever your chosen niche is). Go through the forums and either make a list of all the good ones into a Notepad/Wordpad document, or simply save the links into the Favorites folder of your web browser. (You could create a sub-folder to store all your pages in, for this project.)

Browse through the forums. Get a feel for what the environment is like on each forum. Read through the posting rules and FAQ's if they have any available.

Note: The reason I'm focusing on recipe and cooking forums instead of general interest forums with larger audiences is simple. I want to get as targeted an audience as I can get. This is very important.

Moreover, the less money/time you have, the more targeted you need to get. Because you don't have time/money to waste on untargeted and unresponsive people.

It's better to go to a forum of only 100 members that are highly targeted than to go to a general interest forum that has a thousand members.
