Ok, so you're all probably going to think I'm an idiot, but I am not computer savey and I don't understand. So please keep this in mind with your replies. I started a dog/animal forum on YUKU and am in need of members. How do I go about publisizing myself or putting my name on a directory?

Please don't call me an idiot....... I simply DO not know~!

Joke aside, Dan is right, look in the blogging part of this forum, you will find a few threads that will help you.
You might want to check in the marketing part of the forum as well.

And so I just realized this was a forum, and not a blog.

Anyway Karen, you should check into some advertising and promotional niche forums. You are welcome to signup at my advertising forum, which is in my signature. I also suggest http://forumpromotion.net/.

**abhi** · 12-05-2008, 12:55 AM

You have already promote your forum by posting here. But you should have put your signature link to your site. If people are interested with dogs, like me. I would have visited your forum.

You need to do a lot of SEO stuff like submitting to site to directory sites, ads sites, social bookmarking sites, etc.

For directory submission:

Type in directory site list in SE.
Choose the appropriate category and click submit.
Fill in the title, description, etc.
Click submit.

There are still more lots of work to do.

OK, just in case, here's the link (I hope I did it right) (Am I supposed to do this or am I in trouble now?) Sorry I really don't know!

Thanks for the help and I'm going to do exactly what all of you told me to do. Ya gotta start somewhere learning all this computer stuff right?

None of which is anything to do with SEO of course.

Simple...

Promote on other dog forums

**bakerc** · 10:19 PM

If you google "dog forum" you will find plenty of other communities relating to dogs, all of which you can get involved with and talk to like minded people, as the forums will be full of like minded people they should be willing to check out and possibly join your forum.

Hope this helps.
