There’s Overlooked Value in Forums


Forums create a passionate community - When I asked Sanay for a picture of himself for this post, he sent me a bunch of “photochopped” pictures that his members created. ......


It’s better to add a forum early - Sanjay points out that, when TechCrunch launched their boards, they got a ton of users, but the messages were mostly a collection of “check out my new company” posts. ......

A few ways to get an audience
- The fastest way to build a community is to buy an existing forum. .........

Let ‘em speak - Forums work when they’re about what your audience has to say to each other, not what you want to impose on them..........


Forums are still very Web 1.0 - Users who are members of lots of forums, have to keep a separate profile on each one. The search feature on forums is rudimentary–I can’t even find a search bar on most message boards–which is why so many people post questions that have already been answered instead of searching for a previous response. All these issues and more, is what Sanjay is hoping to solve with CrowdGather.



Please check the blog post for the full article, I've removed a majority of the info above with the dots.....
