10 Forums to Make You a Better Blogger

September 9th, 2007 | Blogging, Forums

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Reading forums and participating in forums is a great way to become a better blogger. Forums focused on blogging are the best means to get questions answered and become known within the blogging community. I don’t suggest that you participate in all of these, but instead pick one or two and become a valuable member. The real power of forums is to become well known within the forums’ community. You want to establish yourself as a valued member of the community and an authority blogger.

Here are my favorite blogging forums:

1. Authority Blogger Forum:

The Authority Blogger Forum is a forum created by Chris Garrett, the author of Chrisg.com. This Forum is pretty new, but I am finding it to be a great community of bloggers. It is also great for new bloggers.

2. Blog Traffic School Forums:

The Blog Traffic School Forums are forums provided by Yaro Starak. Yaro is the author of Entrepreneur’s-Journey blog. In addition to this blog, Yaro runs the Blog Mastermind blog mentoring program. If you are interested in being a professional blogger, I highly recommend join the Blog Mastermind program. I have been a participant since Yaro started it.

3. The Blog Experiment Forums:

The Blog Experiment Forums are an extension of The Blog Experiment, but the forums are the focus of the community. This is an excellent community of bloggers. The forums are very active and very helpful.

4. Bloggeries Blog Forum:

The Bloggeries Blog Forum is one of my favorite forums for blogging. Bloggeries has an awesome revenue sharing program with its participants. Participants earn 50% of the Adsense revenues generated from their threads. Bloggeries’ revenue sharing program is designed to create a very active community.

5. Blogger Forum:

The Blogger Forum is one of the most active forums. It is a great forum and I highly recommend participating in this forum. If you are new to blogging the Newbie Section is a great resource.

6. Bloggst Forum:

The Bloggst Forum offers a lot of great forums. One of the coolest things about Bloggst is that you can submit your blog’s feed to this site and they will publish your posts to their forums. This is a great way to generate traffic and exposure.

7. Blogging Tips Blogging Discussion Forums:

The Blogging Tips Blogging Discussion Forums are an extension of Kevin Muldoon’s blog, Blogging Tips. The forums are fairly new and at this point not too active. This presents a good opportunity to become a leading member of this community. Sometimes it is better to participate and establish yourself at these newer forums.

8. Performancing.com Forums:

The Performancing.com Forums are an extension of Performancing.com Blog. I read the Performancing.com Blog everyday.

9. Digital Point Blogging Forum:

The Digital Point Blogging Forum is a section of the famous Digital Point Forums. Digital Point is a hub for people making money (or hoping to make money) on the Internet. I encourage you to check out all of the forums at Digital Point. The amount of information on these forums is absolutely amazing.

10. The V7 Web Development Community Blogging Forum:

The V7 Web Development Community Blogging Forum is part of The V7 Web Development Community. The V7 Web Development Community focuses on Internet Marketing, Web Design and Blogging.

#7 ipsyMonkey on 09.12.07 at 3:47 pm

I’m a memeber of Digital Point and Bloggeries. I couldn’t handle being a member on any more forums simply because of limited time. It’s a shame because there’s so much useful information on all of those places but unfortunately I can’t be everywhere at once.

#10 eco Boris on 09.15.07 at 3:15 am

I think I have been hanging out at Blog Catalog too much. The people are active but there is too many new people and the conversation is always too light and not too in depth, but I think you can get a little bit of more page views…

#20 James Mann on 09.21.07 at 11:34 am

I belong to quite a few forums that really don’t meet my needs at this time but your great list has given me a few that are just what I am looking for.

Bloggeries is the only one in the list I am already registered at. I know where my morning is going now.

thanks

Time to Stumble another great post. Keep up the great job.

Just a suggestion.

It would benefit both you and your readers if you made those links open in a new window.

#29 Mandy on 09.27.07 at 9:22 am

Thanks for this list Fred,

It’s a great resource and has really helped me out a lot. How did you compile the list? I’ve been looking for blogging forums to participate in, but obviously I have been looking in the wrong place!

I agree forums are great and a really useful tool for getting yourself known, the only problems is choosing one or two to use, there are so many good ones. Or somehow find a way to make more hours in the day!

Fantastic article, keep them coming.

I am a member of three blogging forums (one of which isn’t listed above, a Malaysian blogging forum) and I find myself learning a great deal from fellow forum members.

Imagine what kind of blogger I’d be if I joined the other wonderful forums! LOL.

Yup. That is a good list of forums! Thanks for the compilation.

#42 Alister Cameron // Blogologist on 10.25.07 at 11:40 pm

Fred,

Although they’re not for bloggers, I recommend both sitepoint and wickedfire forums as well.

The latter is full of hackers and people with a little more youthful exuberance than is often “palatable” but I learn lots at both and stay up-to-date on all kinds of stuff from what I read on these forums.

Matt Coddington from netbusinessblog.com is a regular on Wickedfire, for example.

Cheers,

-Alister

#43 Easton Ellsworth on 10.26.07 at 4:19 pm

Sweet list, Fred. Would be great if you did a follow-up comparing all these forums to each other in more detail or maybe interviewing the forum administrators.

Very nice Fred! I’ve been known to be in quite a few of those.

#50 Jenny Lens on 11.16.07 at 10:06 pm

AWESOME!! Found you via bloggingzoom. This is amongst the BEST post I’ve seen anywhere, and I research like crazy.

Thank you so much! I can’t wait to follow up on all this. I’m under crazy deadlines, but I know how I will spend the holidays! Blogging smarter!

I too am a fan of Yaro Stark’s. I love his metaphysical attitude, his integrity, warmth and great archive. I’m not ready to spend as much time as I need to study his mastermind material. After I’ve digested and utilized more of his online posts, I might join his program. I have a ton of ideas and work to do.

Much continued success to you!

Thanks - this is really useful information. I will certainly check a number of these out. Any chance on doing some follow up posts on other niche forums (SEO forums, Pay-per-click forums, social marketing forums, etc.)? It’d be a great service to us all if you could (not to mention a great resource to help market your site).

Thanks and be well,

Moshe

Thank you very much for visiting Newest on the Net and leaving this comment. I have been thinking about doing more posts about other niche forums. I did write on the top 10 Internet marketing forums. You might find this interesting.
