10 Simple SEO Ideas for Your Forum Contents

Good day everyone! I made this thread because I keep on seeing new forum owners
and I don't want them to experience what happen to my friends who got depressed and discouraged.
Making a forum is very easy especially if you are already familiar with forums and simple basic html.
The most common problem is what to post in your forum. Good looking designs, and expensive hosting is not enough to get the people that you want to join your forum. Below are the things that works on me.


1. first make sure that you have edited your meta tags with a
good title, description, and the right keywords.

2. Search for visit your niche competitors forum/blog and observe what is lacking in them.
Try to check their post/threads if you can find a post that seems unfinished,
or not well explained then choose it and create your own thread making
it more polished and fixed.

3. Think of a good and attractive SEO Title.

a size of x5 or Extra Large.

10. Keep doing DIY-SEO atleast once a day or once a week.
