How to Use Forums to Drive Laser Targeted Traffic to Your Site in 7 Steps (3)

jStep 7 - Provide a Step-By-Step Guide or Video Tutorial
If someone asks how to create an e-book, give them a progression of steps they can take. Or, make a Camtasia tutorial video showing them how. Now that you have got them to your site, you will want to "make them a proposal they can not refuse."

Provide a List of Resources and Websites
In addition to checklists, resource lists with website URLs make a great site for them to bookmark. Make sure you supply more than just links. Make it a huge info-page of information. A collection of resources, links to everything you have - articles, video, audio, your blog, other useful sites, tools, you name it.

Solve a Problem for People
If someone asks for help or asks a question, provide your experience and try to help them. But to maximize your odds of getting both the asker of the question and everyone else who reads the post to subscribe to your list, try to phrase your answer in one of the following two ways:

1. Give them tips, techniques, shortcuts, secrets, or anything that offers both the promise of exclusive information and fast results. A shortcut to success.

2. Whenever possible, supply them with specific results. Think about it. When you want to learn how to make income online, you go to someone who is making revenue online to guide you. This quickly establishes you as an authority in that area.

And by helping them, maybe - just maybe – they will click on the link in your signature to check out your website. If you direct them to a blog post or article you wrote to answer their question, they will be even more likely to investigate.

That is all there is to it but at the end of the day, it is a failure-proof way to drive serious traffic to your website using Forum Posts. Apply it and see your traffic soar through the roof.
