A Guide To Paid Forum Posting


Recently, I found this thing called Paid Forum Posting. It earns me some money with a bit of work.

Definitions and Explanations
Paid Forum Posting Companies - These companies hire "forum posters" to post in various forums.

Clients of Paid Forum Posting Companies - These companies hire Paid Forum Posting Companies to add users to their forums and populate the forum for a specific period of time.

Forum Posters - This is us! We go to the Paid Forum Posting Companies' website and see which forums are assigned to us. You can choose which assignments you will take. If you take the assignment, you will now go to the Client's forum and register with a username and start posting!

Why clients pay for people to post on their forums - This is because a "dead" forum is a vicious circle. If a forum is "dead", no one will join the forum because it is "dead" so no one will answer their question or help them out. If no one will join the forum, then the forum remains "dead". Therefore, the clients pay to "start up" their forums and hopefully, other people who voluntarily come across these forums will be enticed to join the forum discussions and be part of the community.

Forums - These are sites that is specifically used for communication among the members of the forums. They share their opinions and advice to each other. Forums that are in need of "starting up" are usually new forums.

Threads - These are topics or the post that will initiate the discussion.

Replies - These are the posts that are responses to the threads in the forum.

How Does It Work
1.) You apply to a Paid Forum Posting Company.

2.) Submit the requirements they have and wait for their response. Usually, they respond within 24 to 48 hours.

3.) One of the requirements is to give sample/trial posts in their forum so that they could judge if your English is good. Do this well!

4.) If you're accepted, you go to their website and login to your account. Each company has a different style but the similarity is that they assign you certain forums depending on the interests that you put in your application. Sometimes you get forums you are familiar with, sometimes you don't.

5.) Go to the forums you choose to do and register. You can start posting once you are registered and logged in.

6.) You would have to record your posts after posting at each forum so that the Paid Forum Posting Companies can keep track of your posts and know how much to pay you. They have this system set-up in your account within the Paid Forum Posting Company.

There it is! My Guide to Paid Forum Posting! Check back in for some tips and companies you can apply to.
