Creating An Online Marketing Community

A little over a year ago, I set out to build an online marketing community.  And honestly, a lot of people thought I was nuts.  With social media ruling the day, creating an online community could be considered old-school.  But the reality is that social media has only raised the awareness of the importance of community... even in marketing.

Last year I launched the
Internet Marketing Forum.  The goal was simple, "Give a platform to marketers that allows them to share ideas, contribute, and build a real community."  And I'm happy to say, a year later, The Marketing Forum has just surpassed 4,000 members.  Yeah, I'm pretty pumped.


The Marketing Forum has a number of sub-forums covering everything from Internet marketing to general chat.  You'll find threads and posts covering the following areas:


-Internet Marketing Forum
-Special Offers Forum
-Search Engine Optimization
-Adwords/PPC/SEM Forum
-Social Media Forum
-Affiliate Programs
-Internet Marketing Product Reviews & Ratings
-Marketing Classifieds
-Domains For Sale
-Internet Marketers For Hire
-HTML & Web Design
-Graphics & Multi-Media
-Content Management
-Web Site Programming
-General Chat
-Local Meetings, Mastermind Groups, And Events


As you can see, we cover virtually ever topic you can image and I'm so excited by the dialog that happens each and every day across these forums.  Because the forum is moderated, you'll find only engaging conversations and growing list of contributors.


Help us reach our next goal of 5,000 and then 10,000 members.  Join today!
