looking for tips from folks leveraging traffic buys/fb ads/etc to boost registrations on their own forums.
anyone successful in this sort of endeavor? any tips to be shared?
Not something I've done, but I'm sure there are some people around here who have.
I take it you're referring to paid membership forums like STM?
somewhat, but a very very different demographic. there is a paid option (2.99/mo) but members can join free and still hang out. just looking for pro-tips from folks who have leveraged traffic to increase a user base vs affiliate conversions. granted, im sure there are tremendous similarities...
