Add a new forum section or child board for SEO/Marketing?

Post by TheSaint » Thu Sep 22, 2005 6:52 am

With a lot of people starting new sites for the first time with Joomla it would be helpful if they had a decent chance to discuss how to bring decent traffic into their sites. SEO, meta tag suggestions, link exchanges, offline campaigns and other forms of site publicity are a hot topic these days.

Also, the need to stress ethical considerations (such as avoiding certain spamming procedures that may hurt your reputation) can be leveled in a mature fashion. The more Joomla sites that receive solid traffic, the better the chances of more people using Joomla. It is a win/win situation if done properly. Thank you as always for listening.

Interesting idea.

Marketing, PR, DM, SEO, Usability, CRM
- all good subjects to help Joomla users be more successful.

Perhaps I should have been a bit more broad. A general Webmaster/owner forum to discuss the various business aspects about maintaining and promoting a site ethically would be most welcome. While there are whole sites dedicated to this topic, it seems that a little child board test run wouldn't be that hard to pull off. Anyone else have interest in such an addition?
