    Default How Do We Get This Board To Grow?

    A question that came to me this morning is how do we get this board to grow to a point where it has some staying power? We all know that the Orange Mane and of course Broncomania are well established so how do we compete with them?

    That's a good question, so anyone that has some ideas should chime in.

    We have a good nucleus of quality posters that logged in yesterday and today, so that is a great start. However, we need to figure out how to get enough momentum for the board to take on a life of its own.

    we could try what mozilla firefox did:



    merchandise is always great...

    yeah...

    i love...

    merchandise...

    fireboobs...

    i mean...

    boobs...

    what??

    yeah...

    all that...

    or we perhaps could create an environment where people could become addicted or perhaps threatened if they were to leave...

    eg:

    im sure that dude was forced at gunpoint to eat there...

    cant we do the same to people wanting to read here??

    momentum...

    problem with momentum, is that it normally takes some time and some dedication before anything happens...

    the orange mane and broncomania didnt become popular overnight...

    some loyal posters hung in there and watched the place grow...

    Same here the blond would works but the guy just might be a big detriment literally and figuratively to the board.

    Not sure if it will generate any members but I once paid for some advertising at the site I was building.

    Basically the program sends a certain amount of redirects to the link of my choice.

    It has been going to waste for awhile as I am not using my old site anymore so the redirects have been going to a useless place really.

    I just changed the URL so it will do the redirects here. About 20k redirects left on my account. Don't count on it helping but you never know, maybe a few will stay.

    Maybe some will just be pissed about being redirected and just close the page LOL.

    This link is basically what the redirect is and the add that goes with it.

    I honestly think the key lies in brand new members and not just members from Broncomania or who have been banned or left there. Those members are great for "establishing" a good foundation but growth usually stems from first timers.

    My first board ever was mania and it inevitably had most of my attention over any other board where I became a member. People join boards at first for information but eventually form friendships and cliques which draw them in even more and keep them coming back.

    So basically we need to do whatever we can to get the board name and rep out into cyber world..
