[GrowMyForumCommunity]

People engaging in forum have spend so much time in improving their forums for it to be famous. They have invested so much time and effort in building a good one. Also, it is really hard to start one especially when you do not have an idea on how to get people to join your forum. What do you really need to do in order for you to build a good forum?

Here are some of the tips in building a good forum:

• The very thing that you need to consider before building a forum is to think of what your forum is all about.
  
• If you already know what your forum is all about, then you can now have an idea of who your target audience are. For example, your forum will be a gaming forum, so automatically, your target audience will be people who are fond of online and offline gaming. This is the very reason why you should take time in thinking what kind of forum you want to have because your target audience follows.
  
• Be sure that your forum is user-friendly. Don't complicate the forum's navigation because this won't help the users.
  
• Check whether the links, sections and all the the clickable stuff in your forum is working.
  
• Know the trends. Let's have the same example : gaming forum. If you are to engage in a gaming forum, be sure to have sections that can cater your target audience. Knowing the trends about the gaming world is necessary so that you can show your potential visitors that your forum is an updated one. Also, you must know something about gaming as well.
  
• Contents. Your contents must be very good. It must be informative, up-to-date and really helpful. It can be an advantage when your site will be catering fresh and the newest updates. This will be a good thing so that the people will join in your forum.
  
• The overall appearance of your forum is also essential. Have banners and logo to look more appealing and legit. Add an eye-catching feature to your website so that at first glance, you can catch visitors' attention.
  
• You and your moderators should love the forum community. You should select helpful people in your staff line-up.
  
• Let your members feel that they belong. Entertain them and help them with the best you can.
  
• Don't lose hope when you have few members at the start. This is normal to every starting forums. What you need to do is to make them stay and to encourage them to help you promote and get more people to join your forum.
  
• Advertise. Advertise and advertise some more. There are a lot of ways in advertising and marketing, feel free to try those. Join related forums that allows its members to advertise their websites. You can also use social media to encourage people to join.
  
• Be patient. You can not have your desired results in just a blink. Every successful owners, before they became successful have invested so much, so never lose hope.
  
• Be an active owner. People are not joining dead forums, so you should always be active. You can also try to create some accounts so that people will think that some other people joined.
  
• Have something in your forum that is worth joining for.
  
• Enjoy what you are doing. This is very important, because for you to continue what you are doing, you should love it. Never ever give up when your first week is not good.
  
• Always have a plan, if Plan A fails, don't get discouraged because there are 25 more letters in the alphabet.

These are just some of the things that you should know in building a good forum.

I would say, it's much easier to start a forum if you have an initial group of friends (or people you know in person) to register for accounts and start discussions. If you want a forum that is actually productive, this is the route to go!
