I’ve been spending the last few days working on my forum cash and chat. I’ve done the easy stuff like adding a mod for advertising and so on, now though I have to work on the SEO for it and I’m scared. The reason I’m scaried is that i have to play with my sql data base and I don’t wanna! I’m going to make myself do it though, I think I may try on a test forum first just to make sure I can do it right, of course that means I have to install a test forum, but I have like 7 domains so that shouldn’t be an issue.

I’m hoping that after doing some of these upgrades people will start joining more. Right now we have a lot of spamming members. I’ll be deleting them soon, right now I’m just deleting the post. I think our biggest problem is since it’s a get paid to post forum, people want to be paid for referrals too. I have no issue with that, but right now there is no refferal link script for phpbb3. So I’m stuck until someone can write one as I don’t know how to do it myself. I’m thinking about getting some books and trying to figure it out. That way I can add all of the fun stuff I want to add. I just think it may be quicker to wait for someone to do it!

I love the people of my forum, they are worried that we don’t have enough members and that were not growing quickly enough. I have to say I would love to grow quicker, but I also know that people won’t do anything for free. Unfortunately phpbb3 still does not have a referral link script available and since this is a paid to post, people also want to get paid for referrals.

I’m hoping one will be out soon, but I don’t know if it’s going to be soon enough. Cash and Chat is doing okay and I have the money to support it, just not enough posters. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what I can do once I get my car fixed. Then I know how much money I can spend on advertising. I want this to succeed not only for me, but for anyone looking for a good place to chat and earn cash. It seems so many of these forums end up very spammy because they concentrate more on the make money part and not the chatting part. We do have a make money area, but we also have general topics and a blogging and webmaster section.

Right now with it being summer I’m sure some of the traffic issue is because of the nice weather. If it hasn’t picked up by October then I’ll start to worry more.
