Hi and thanks for the visit. If you're new here you may want to subscribe to my feed.
Most you should be familiar with the various freebie and getpaidto forums out there. They are by far the most powerful traffic source for your Incentive sites. It is a very highly targeted form of visitors that have their mind set on completing offers. Anything4free.com. Freeipodguide.com. Freelunchroom.com, and many more are what make the incentive market profitable. There are thousands and thousands of members in these forums.
Especially with the incredible rise in incentive sites and fraudulent incentive sites these forums have been increasingly selective on who is allowed to promote their site. I know that anything4free.com (A4F) now screens every single site before they are allowed promote their site. It is not as easy as it once was. But there is still a way to profit from forum traffic.
First, you need to start the approval process for your site at these forums. Find other forums that many people haven’t heard of and start promoting your site there. Make sure to be a frequent and helpful contributor to these forums. Maybe share some interesting posts about non-freebie or non-gpt related topics. If people see you as a valuable member of the forum they will be more likely to visit your site. After you have been approved make a post or two explaining the unique features of your site. Offer some type of promotion to your users, the more creative the better.
This is a very important step or all your efforts will be wasted: Make your site unique and interesting. Even if people sign up at your site they will not want to finish it if is just like any other site. This is much easier said than done. If you make your product (your site) quality, the traffic from these forums will be viral. People will pay for your greens or solicit referrals for your site. But if its crap, it will be one-time traffic and it will die down soon.
Many sites including zeropricetags and macrobucks started exclusively from forum traffic and now make serious bucks. If done properly forums can be your single biggest form of traffic.
