Title: Campaigns and Forums Traffic
Post by: Ambatman on April 27, 2024, 10:38:58 PM
Hopefully this is the right Board to ask this. Well it's nothing much just some question about activeness of members in the forum.
I think there have been some decline in the number of active members for sometime now
1. Is this as a result of low /lack of signature campaign
2. Or it's because of the low traffic that there's low number of campaigns
3. Or maybe both
4. Or The forum is still it's growing phase and haven't gotten to the height of having active users per hour in Thousands or reached campaigns that would be interested in promoting their product.


The essence of this is it's like there's a significant relationship between campaigns and how active the forum gets.
TBH joined the forum because it was relatively new and would allow me build a reputation if I joined Now and maybe enable me to gain access to better campaigns in the long run.
There are many users that have stayed in the forum and continue been active not mainly for the monetary benefit but as a form of love for their community.
I know belongness as times goes on starts overwhelming monetary benefits while in a community but before then did Campaign play a role in making you active or your desire to seek more knowledge?
Thank you.

Without statistics, all we will say is speculation, but in general, for new members to continue joining the forum, the quality of discussions must be high so that the data is archived first in search engines. These engines are the ones that bring new visits.
Also, the adoption of more projects on publishing ANN here and the presence of Bounty campaigns will contribute a lot to enhancing traffic.
Note that a large portion of BTT traffic was coming from Google and YouTube, so trying to create visual content to introduce the forum may contribute.


In general, I think that mixer campaigns may continue here for a long time, so at least we can guarantee that traffic will not drop severely.

Yes, I think I agree that signature campaigns are quite useful to increase the traffic on this forum. Many people join such forums and make posts to gain some revenue by sharing their knowledge with other members of the community and there's nothing wrong in such approach.

I believe most of the companies that want to run their promotional campaigns also want to have more exposure on forums where users are more active and they makes good posts.

By keeping that in our mind, we can see the forum is getting way more active then it used to be and that's why I believe in long term campaigns will continue to advertise here and overtime traffic of the forum will also continue to increase.

I find it very hard to find enough topics that interest me enough to comment on. I might get 12-15 comments in a week and I struggle to get that many, so for me we just don't have enough members creating new topics on different boards.

If I am struggling, then I am sure that others are struggling. When we have a lack of participation, lack of new, lack of interest, then everything suffers. Traffic, number of interested companies wanting to advertise here, number of users who want to come here etc.

We need an influx of new members, we need users posting consistently on all boards, we need users keeping topics alive. We need it regardless of if in a campaign or not. Look at how many accounts do nothing unless being paid, that's not really being part of the community IMO.

I monitor every posts and topics of the forum. So far it averages 550 a day in the last 30 days. There is a fall in 04/22, and its monday, which is payday of most campaigns here also that time increased the bitcoin fees so high, idk the main reason of the fall but it could be somehow affects users' activity that day.

I think we need to discuss more about altcoin. When I joined here I thought that the discussions and comparisons about altcoin would be deeper, but look at the boards of Ethereum, Solana, XRP , Polygon , Cardano ,...etc. You will find them all about the price and not discussions about the blockchain or the developments that could occur. The situation is completely different on the Bitcoin board.

Why do you think that is though? Lack of users simply interested in more than chasin a buck?

I think it is BOTH ? because the forum needs traffic to be consider by businesses running campaigns but also campaigns are needed to have bigger traffic so this is a two way thing.
but also you are correct about the forum is still maturing and getting into what Bitcointalk attains , this forum is half a time from the other forum so maybe this needs another couple of years to have larger traffic.

I've been here since 2021 and I can say that after the mixers ban, the activity here is much higher than before. Previously I found it difficult just to comment on a thread since most of the time it's just a news bot or spam. However, the traffic might still be far from the "neighboring forum" though, so you can't really compare them. We need more link juice + valuable info to be ranked higher on SERP.

I am fairly new to this forum registered a while ago and been dormant then got active cause I am free from my stuff. Ever since I can see the activity is on the rise, can't comment about the previous but emergence of campaigns actually brought more life to this forum which everyone will agree.

We don't see yet many sig campaigns like we see on bitcointalk but sooner or later this also can be a place where everyone wants to advertise their service/products.

I do feel that the lack of quality topics stops me from commenting more.

It is true that the forum traffic is not very large, especially if we compare it with BTT traffic, but although it may seem to many of you that there is little traffic, I can assure you that it is quite high compared to previous years. Signature campaigns logically have a lot of traction and make BTT users and other new users register on the forum. I hope that over time, users will not only write threads/posts for the dollars they can receive, but because they will find this forum a comfortable place to talk about cryptocurrencies. I know it's difficult for what I'm saying to happen, but a long time ago the traffic the forum has now was a dream.

I agree 100%

We have SEO problems I think. It doesn't appear in search results.

Additionally,  I think there are too many boards and it is difficult to find topics and to find the correct place to post it.

Questions from newbies  like "I lost my ethereum using phantom and metamask  please help" are very good for SEEO, and we don't have those here..

Yes, before the mixers ban on Bitcointalk the forum used to be less active then the way it is today. I have personally not experienced that myself but when I teleported to this forum from Bitcointalk, I saw way less active posts.

Most of the threads were made in 2020 or early then that and many of the threads of that era didn't receive even a single reply. I believe the activity level increase so many times on this forum after mixer campaigns moved here.

I am happy to see most of my friends from bitcointalk here.

I believe that we have members of very high knowledge in this forum, but we lack opportunities to show this knowledge.  We need more active discussions

I guess, the forum still need a little time to draw in more traffic. Going through some forum stats on BTT for the past month since mixers were banned, you will see that some members have really drawn back in their previous active status, Since they have to be active on both forums. I think the forum needs more campaigns and new discussions, to actually draw more traffic to it self. New campaigns will be launched in the future and so a lot of new members would register and also old members with high ranked accounts will want to be active ones again.

Yes, I highly agree with you, the members on this forum are very much knoweledable about crypto-currencies because most of them are directly teleported from the no 1 crypto currency forum Bitcointalk and that's why almost 99% of the members who teleported here have enough knowledge that they can share overtime.

This forum is still getting to the activity level day by day, and within a year we may see more useful discussions taking place on this forum. I can see a better future of this forum, and I'm very sure that as soon other crypto currency users find about it they will continue to make accounts on this forum and make more useful topics.

All the possibilities that you foresee here refer to the number of campaigns. Here I would add one more option
5. There are not enough members here who will publish quality posts and thus attract new businesses to promote themselves through campaigns.

Additionally,  I think there are too many boards and it is difficult to find topics and to find the correct place to post it.

Questions from newbies  like "I lost my ethereum using phantom and metamask  please help" are very good for SEEO, and we don't have those here..

This is the essence.
If this forum wants to grow, not only "rich" campaigns are enough, but also content that will be useful to others outside the forum. It is full of discussions dealing with speculations and what will happen if... No one searches for such things.

Also, it seems to me that forcing bounty and earning possibilities as the primary thing on the forum obviously does not produce results. As far as I can see, that part of the forum is quite inactive or occasionally some campaigns appear for which there is no interest.

A few days ago I was looking for a good place to open a discussion about some services, I believe that such topics have no place in any "discussion" section.

In general, I think that mixer campaigns may continue here for a long time, so at least we can guarantee that traffic will not drop severely.

For mixers, these are relatively cheap campaigns, even if compared to what they paid on Btt, on that side they can last much longer. However, at some point when they evaluate the results, it does not mean that they will continue if they are not satisfied.

Thank you.
Both... because the quality of the user and also the activeness of the user are interconnected so that they can get a place to become a campaign participant. The parameters used by campaign managers are none other than because they want to select users with good quality and more consistent activity, of course users who have these two advantages will get a better place in the eyes of the manager.

So it forces us to learn from each other and also be active in this forum. In the end, we will become more accustomed to being active in the forum and will slowly understand the forum more and more.

I didn't look at exact statistics but I don't think that majority of members in AltcoinsTalks forum is teleported from bitcointalk.
We need more real quality conversation between members, people offering services, solving problems, etc. not just because they are in some signature campaign.

They will continue to promote even if there are no clicks as long as the forum is active. Marketing is based on brand are always present. The number of clicks does not matter as much as the number of impressions, and inevitably during discussions and the increased need for privacy, the members’ recommendations here will be useful in the long term.


Why do you think that is though? Lack of users simply interested in more than chasin a buck?
Campaign managers can help by hiring who have deep altcoin experience, I mean 1 good poster per board who active and create topics will be better, all subsequent things will come accordingly.
Campaign manager can add "need an active Litecoin board member"

I think it is hard to find discussions about the priject itself not just the price.

And there is a  lack of technical discussions. We only see questions like "what is the best wallet?"

Additionally,  I think there are too many boards and it is difficult to find topics and to find the correct place to post it.

I would like to help the forum in this way
But we really need a better organization. It is hard to find boards, because  many if the boards redirects to the same and we have tons of earnings and bounty (which are bad traffic imo)

Well, as soon as Theymos banned the mixers from Bitcointalk, of course there was going to be a spike of users at altcoinstalks. And now it appears to have become calmer but it has not revered to its original numbers.

This kind of pattern is common among internet services that don't exactly hit it in their "growth phase". For example, Threads started with a record 100m users in I think two days, but then lost most of those users to inactivity in the weeks after. Then there was a similar spike again a few months later, which calmed down, etc.

Same here, I also find that difficult. To be honest, there are so many boards, especially child boards, that I can't seem to find any suitable or active subjects to engage in a discussion. It's like an endless puzzle. And most of the time, I would check the "View the most recent posts on the forum." option to find any active topics. Sometimes I would check posts from my BTT buddies for topics to discuss. I'm trying my best to know this forum, maybe then I'll be able to post without any difficulties.

Famous question, that is very hard to answer for the 100 times... that is why we need to have topics with bunch of pages and mew posts created all the time.
I am going to start reporting similar topics to moderators for locking.

Well, as soon as Theymos banned the mixers from Bitcointalk, of course there was going to be a spike of users at altcoinstalks. And now it appears to have become calmer but it has not revered to its original numbers.
I don't think it reverted back to original members, there are several new members who teleported and stay active.
