By the way, people not engaging with you, and being kicked out, are 2 different things, though often related. If you post a lot of rubbish/nonsense/useless and then make one mistake of spam, link dropping, etc, on forums where it breaks their rules, then they will give you no leeway. Whereas a good forum member who makes a mistake or breaks a rule just rarely, will be given the benefit of the doubt because they otherwise make a good contribution to the forum. It's all about relevant contribution. Business forum ....needs relevant useful business contribution, and same if it was a car, baby, holiday, or other sort of forum. Has to be relevant to the users who frequent it. Again.......this SHOULD be obvious......but.....

I'd be asking yourself, are people interested in the (rubbish??) you write? Are your threads boring, cheesy, spammy, uninteresting, useless, self promotional, etc?

Are you asking really obvious questions that really, you ought to know the answer to which begs the question, why are you asking what is usually reasonably intelligent business owners? (if you're on a business forum, that is).

e.g. My clients never order from me after the first order, why is that?

If you can't come up with answers then you're not ready to be in business. That's a made up question by the way but I did read something similar not so long ago.

Are your threads always the same sort of thing and often in the same section of the forum? Might people wonder why you are actually on the forum?

e.g. this is a business forum so if you never engage in business discussions, people will question your motive for being here.

any pics for us?

A year on? What diary are you using?

I think they might have heard that MLF backlinks are quite good Steve.....my forum posts now rank no. 1 for a keyword that finally has got above moneysupermarket that held the no.1 spot for ages.

There are 2 kinds of "niche" dontcha know!!

Niche 1 = a unique product that is specific and focussed to a small target group of buyers/users that usually yields a high return.

Niche 2 = the business owner who is convinced it's a great word that makes their product or business idea sound better. Ask them for a business plan, or just the demographics, then go outside and wait for Haley's comet to fly past.....though be warned..... you're likely to see some pigs first

what about this one?

Jewellery one was best!

And their names, please?

My animals are well trained (she says!). Well bob and tickle are, and i've got to work on the puppy!

She's already house trained well.....if I take her to the garden on the hour every hour lol but she sleeps right through the night.

It's all about having a routine they can rely on. I'm working between home and office with Kathryn doing odd spot of puppy-sitting, looking forward to taking her out after second vaccs on Monday, take her into the office, for walks, etc.
