Title: Reorganizing forum boards & subboards
Post by: examplens on February 03, 2024, 01:02:06 AM
It is obvious that the popularity of this forum is growing, I already said earlier that some cosmetic changes should be made. So here are my suggestions.

I am most against "Earning & bounty stuff" being dominant on the top page of the forum. I think there are more important things that this forum can offer.
Not to damage the forum's image, altcoin discussions should take the top spot on the page. As we cannot ignore the arrival of many members from BTT, and of course Bitcoin as the most important cryptocurrency, certainly Bitcoin must have its dedicated place here. I think that it has been quite neglected until now.

So, how I think this forum should look after re-sorting:

Altcoin ANN
Altcoin News & Updates
Alt mining
Ethereum Forum
Binance SMart chain
DeFi
Cardano
Ripple
Solana
Doge

Child Boards:

- I think that we shouldn't go too deep, like Board > child board > subboard (In some cases there are exceptions, of course)
- Some (perhaps all) minor exchanges may not have to have a separate subboard unless they have their officials here
- Some of the altcoin subboards have almost no activity, and I believe that it would be enough for them to be in the discussion, without a dedicated subboard.
- Also, there is no need for some categories to be in more places, it's just confusing. Like "xxx news" where they all end up in the same place.

This is just a suggestion, I must have missed a lot and I believe that the other members can make some good suggestions and add what I haven't seen.

Thanks to @examplens for introducing such an innovative idea. The moment I learned that BTT had an alternative community discussing things beyond Bitcoin, I was anticipated to finding a dedicated altcoin forum, has the name implies.

In your proposal, I suggest moving the further discussion closer to the top page, preferably within the altcoin/Bitcoin discussion. Overall, the other aspects seem satisfactory to me. However, I'm uncertain whether the admin will consider adjustments, even if some of us support the idea. The admin holds the authority to make any necessary changes in this community.

I think that discussions like the crypto ecosystem, exchanges, wallets, women in crypto or forum things are much more important than Sociology & Politics, Entrepreneurship...

Ok.

And I can't find news related to crypto board , or does each board have its own news as a sub-board?

I think forum related should be closer to the top but I am only 1 voice. Any order is fine really as its not really that complicated to scroll down. I find myself on the gambling board the most and its pretty far down, but I'm ok with it.

I'm will also go with you mate. The forum related should be closer to the top probably after Bitcoin discussion board. That's because it would be easier to find or ask questions relating to the forum. With the position where it is now, most newbies or newly teleported members might not be able to find it on time. It's a board that should be seen all the time just in case of such situations.

You have done well @examplens. I guess this arrangement will go with other members of the forum as the current arrangement format looks disorganized, bulky also a bit confusing. It all depends on the admin if he will agree with this. we don't want a situation that will seem much like we are trying to turn this forum to Bitcointalk just because we want to organize it 8)
Title: Re: Reorganizing forum boards & subboards
Post by: SamReomo on February 03, 2024, 06:51:58 AM
I think the arrangement you have done is quite good but I believe that instead of putting altcoin boards on top, it would be better to put Bitcoin boards on the top mainly because the services that are advertising on this forum are all related to Bitcoin and the forum is also getting new active users and traffic due to those services.

I think it won't affect the forum even if altcoin boards go below Bitcoin boards because we all know that Bitcoin is and it will always remain as the most dominant crypto-currency out there and it's because of Bitcoin those altcoins are continuing to grow.

In my opinion if the forum gets more activity on Bitcoin boards then the traffic on this forum will also increase and everyone who search for Bitcoin related queries may reach out this forum, and the ultimate goal of mixers advertising will also be accomplished if the forum gets more organic traffic from the search engine like Google.

Not only mixers but other platforms will also likely to think about advertising their services on this forum if the traffic of the forum increases overtime. That's my opinion, however, it would be great to hear the opinions of other reputed users to see what they think about my suggestions.
Title: Re: Reorganizing forum boards & subboards
Post by: hugeblack on February 03, 2024, 08:13:28 AM
I agree with you on everything you mentioned, but I prefer adding a welcome message so that it contains a link to the most important forum terms (those terms that appear with every page) in addition to a link >> To teleport your account from Bitcointalk, click here, with adding an option if the user wants it to appear. The message is once a day for the first week or understand the forum.

Then, the location of the related forum is not necessarily important, as long as it is at the beginning.

Can there be a way where you can rearrange it on your own? Like your personal view or something. In that way, you can check the sections that you really want quickly.

Of course, the default view is what is being recommended by OP.
Title: Re: Reorganizing forum boards & subboards

I will look into these suggestions, and consider and implement some.

There is no option where you can customize or prioritize the boards on this forum. However, you can use the "hide" button to hide the boards that you do not visit. By doing this, you filter the boards and have a quick access to the ones that you want to visit fast.

Earning Aspect of this forum is the reason why most people here. especially those who teleported from bitcointalk. I bet 99% of teleported members wouldn't be here if all the mixer campaigns had not migrated into this forum.
I too agree that the sections needs adjustment. but I don't think earning related sections should be moved to very bottom. putting them as Subborads of "Marketplace" would make sense.

It's a matter of the quality of the discussion.
Look at the earning section, do you have anything useful to read there?

Yes, the mixer campaigns brought some money to the forum, therefore more activities (I think it's a good direction). Will this trend continue or be interrupted if the most important discussions are bounty reports?

Altt is not btt
We have thousands of bounty hunters that
Signed up here to earn via bounty and so on ...
Btt have a different display because since inception the objective was different.

I agree that the Earning board shouldn't be the top but it shouldn't be way below as suggested in the OP.

@admin, maybe a little change to the order of first three boards?

My preferred arrangement is this:
1. Learning & News
2. Crypto Discussion Forum
3. Earning

I wouldn't mind if earning is number 2.

This is less work.

If this is addressed to me.
Altt doesn't even need to be BTT.
Here we are talking about improving the quality of this forum. The change brought about by mixers and teleported BTT users cannot be ignored. If the previous situation with the dominance of bounty hunters was better, then probably not much needs to be changed.

What I am sure of is that all owners of signature campaigns (dominantly mixers at the moment) will certainly not waste money on displaying advertisements in bounty reports posts, nor for shitposts when hunters only care about fulfilling the quota.
At some point, they signature owners all will evaluate the results of the promotion here and it is not guaranteed that they will continue to promote on this forum.

February ads revenue is zero (no bids that qualified)
Do not tell me about whether they would or would not advertise.
I ask for opinions and feedback and appreciate it. But let's keep it here.

I see some angriness in your reply. Probably because of the language barrier. I am not a native English speaker but I am used to with examplens writing style and I don't see anything where he exceeded the limit. We are just normal forum users and some of us just share our own points of view and possible suggestions. We are not one to force you to implement anything and we do not even have the rights. If you don't like any suggestions, that is fine. You are the admin and you might have a different point of view. But, you don't have to react like that when you do not what others saying. You may ignore it if you don't like it.

So, how I think this forum should look after re-sorting
Dream on.
I think only way you are going to see something like this in real life is if you create separate new forum, maybe call it examplenscointalk.com  ;)
Some people are not happy with current conditions both in bitcointalk and altcoinstalks, so if you can attract mixers and casinos... anything can happen.
It's fork time baby, let's spread peace and love here 8)

You can not satisfy everyone
Hundreds of crypto forums have been created, at least 4 members of this forum launched their own "better " forum. All shut it down within a couple years.
I have been in forum management for 20+ years, i managed dozens of forums ... "forking" you do not do with people, you do with software.

Also let's be real here. We are not resolving world issues here, and almost all teleported users are here for the sig campaigns ...

Some ppl are not happy with conditions on both btt and altt ... elaborate, i am listening ...
Let me make something clear first btt and altt are 2 different forums, if you get something on btt that does not mean you have the right for same feature here.
It's like going into the neighbor's house and jumping in the bed next to his wife.

So thank you for the remarks and recommendations, some will be taken in consideration and are really appreciated.

On a more realistic note, the majority of these boards and subboards will not be removed or modified, and the administrator will not accommodate every request; he will always keep what he believes the forum requires. There have been numerous suggestions for BTT over the years, but only about 5% have been implemented. It happens everywhere; for the time being, the best solution is to ignore the boards you do not want to see or interact with. I did mine, and it's better this way although i noticed there are some boards that you cannot put on the ignore list.

I might be mistaken, but felt  the statement like an emotional blackmail. Which is why i precised the february bidding results.

This seems unfortunate. Are advertisements the primary source of income for ALTT? Or could the forum continue for a long time if the value of the ads was zero?

If this is possible, can you tell us what is the average cost of running the forum? We may be able to help if that is possible.

Hello hugeblack
Don't worry, forum have been running for 6 years, most of the time on a 0 revenue.
Don't worry ...
I am just stating, because i have seen multiple topics mentioning ad revenue as an argument.
I wanted to precise that more often than not, there is no ad revenue.

I thought that also since altcoinstalks has no specific coin that they are promoting to fetch revenue for them. And as the admin has said, zero revenue is not a problem and yes I also think of that because they have been on operation since the creation of the website.

If this is possible, can you tell us what is the average cost of running the forum? We may be able to help if that is possible.
I think the signature campaigns ads which is running in the forum might be paying some tikes to the development of the forum so that the website can be on operation for all for the business activities. And also as you said, if the admin needs external help, he can reach out to some key members here and they will render their help to develop the forum.

I think we need to create technical boards, and they should be at top.

Those boards are what make bitcointalk rank up in Google searches , and there is room for altcoins technical issues which are not covered bt BTT.

For example, problems with multicurrency wallets. Problems with BNB recover,  ethereum seed when importing for another wallet with different derivation paths, etc.

Honestly, I didn't see any anger here. Of course, I wrote earlier that not everything should be dedicated to earning money from the signature (or bounty), so I look at the forum administration as well. It's good that it exists, but the quality of the forum is more important for the future.

P.S. admin, I think I saw that the top banner (the one with the mixtum ad) is taken for the next few months. What were February's bids for?

Good suggestion. Honestly, I would rather see such discussions than "What Made You Believe in Cardano ?? "

Today I received a PM with an offer to buy some kind of token, so I noticed that there is no thread for p2p trading between forum members.
I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing to have if there was a place to buy and sell tokens. I looked around the forum now and I'm not sure what would be a suitable place for it, but here's an idea for the admin to maybe think about it in the future.

yeah the february top banner bid was not considered, as i gave a promise before launching bidding system, and there was a miscomprehension, so i prefer keep it based on what client understood rather what i was expecting.

p2p is a good idea, will be implemented. however, members spaming other about selling coins not allowed, plead report the message you got.

technical boards are good, the issue there are so many altcoins ... should we do one for all ? Or maybe we should guide users to transforms the boards into more technical, and keep everything else in a single thread (or even two) ?

I am still catching up but when I see boards for each token or coin then it makes me puzzled. According to CMC there are 2.2M+ 8836 [I don't believe it LOL but even if it is 20,000 crypto] crypto which means you need to plan for 2.2M+ 8836  cryptos. It is really not wise to consider and not going to happen.

Make one technical board. There can be topics for different coins, let the community make their choices or the crypto devs can create their own topic to discuss the technical part of their blockchain.

Edit:
My doubt was correct. After investigation I see there are 8836 crypto listed on CMC but they are writing 2.2M+ at the top. Fu*kers LOL

Are we going to trade based on our BTT reputation, or how will this work? You know, whatever happens here will have little impact on someone's reputation on BTT, and someone could use that to defraud someone here. Sincerely, I would like to purchase a large number of random airdrops if I could find one. If I cannot get them here, where else will I get them ;D

Make one technical board. There can be topics for different coins, let the community make their choices or the crypto devs can create their own topic to discuss the technical part of their blockchain.

I thought of this too: no need to create different sub boards for each coin, we only need a board to cover the entire altcoins.

I think we need to create technical boards, and they should be at top.

Those boards are what make bitcointalk rank up in Google searches , and there is room for altcoins technical issues which are not covered bt BTT.

For example, problems with multicurrency wallets. Problems with BNB recover,  ethereum seed when importing for another wallet with different derivation paths, etc.
technical boards are good, the issue there are so many altcoins ... should we do one for all ? Or maybe we should guide users to transforms the boards into more technical, and keep everything else in a single thread (or even two) ?

I think this must be something like this:
Altcoins Talks - Cryptocurrency Forum  »Crypto Discussion Forum » Technical Discussion

If you want, you can create sub boards like this:
Altcoins Talks - Cryptocurrency Forum  »Crypto Discussion Forum » Technical Discussion  » Wallets

For example, I created a topic sometime ago, but the forum has so many sub forums taht is makes difficult to navigate. Few people saw it.

 Topic: problems recovering bnb chain busd token from coinomi  (Read 123 times)

why ? it can give a reason for the orcs to attack us as "unlicensed securities exchange"
also there is the marketplace section where people sell anything.

Maybe it's a matter of name. I guess it's enough to have a "cryptocurrency exchange" where members will leave their offers to buy or sell coins. That sounds like classifieds to me, just as if we have a section for hardware sales. No one can accuse that is an illegal hardware store. I don't think it could cause the effect of the name "illegal exchange"
For example, I registered on most small exchanges just to sell some altcoins. I would always prefer to finish it directly on the forum rather than going through the registration process.

Marketplace & Bitcoin Services (https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?board=2.0) is a correct section for any deals between our forum users, just draw up the topic correctly. ;)

Honestly, it seems quite confusing to me.
For example, In the same board, we have threads like:
   
[SERVICE] Crypto Payment Gateway Development
[CFNP] Tengricrypto.com 💠 Crypto Mixer | Sig Campaign | Up to $45/W

and then
Selling 444k FXB coin za 550$, accept BTC, LTC

So, in the same place, we have development, bounty (whatever is signature), cryptocurrency exchange...

Looking at it that way, then categories are not needed, it just need to be correctly indicated in topic subject.

This reminds me that someone asked which is the correct category where the signature campaign threads are opened because they are in several places. The answer that everything is appropriate is completely wrong because to get adequate information, I have to go through the entire forum and all many categories.

If a security license is required, we do not need it. We understand how difficult it is to obtain one—an alt exchange board or currency exchange board, as Bitmover has already suggested. It will still solve the problem. Have you got something to sell? Create a thread, state your condition, and that is it.

admin there there is different between p2p exchange platform and p2p board in a forum. And that f the the p2p board can be operated like the one of p2p platform which KYC will be asked to complete the process and even some of the authentications will  be needed to protect the security of the users. And the KYC exchanges are more used than the non KYC platforms. But if the forum here can provide a legit non KYC board for exchange then it will be preferable because the exchange board for the forum is at the seller's risk.

Very unlikely. It's obvious the entire model of this platform is forum not a specific service platform. But since you are concern and ultimately you are the man to make the final decision.

admin, I am of the opinion that the word "forum" is redundant in the name of every altcoin subboard. It is obvious what it is about, and maybe it would be clearer without the "forum" word. For example, Avalanche AVAX is enough for all to know that there is a discussion about that token & Ecosystem.

I agree.

This is similar to Keyword Cannibalization

https://www.semrush.com/blog/keyword-cannibalization-guide/
Quote
[What Is Keyword Cannibalization?

Keyword cannibalization is an SEO issue that occurs when multiple pages on a site target the same keyword(s) and serve the same purpose, and in doing so harm each other’s search engine rankings. This is because the search engine can’t determine which page is the most relevant result for associated queries.

And also this
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/repeating-keywords-wont-help-seo-google-smarter-than-kapoor

Anyway o think it is important to keep all pages with the keyword forum in header tags, but too many might be bad.

It's easy to investigate, that's what I'm talking about.
Even though it's a subforum title, it's still on the index page. And yes, it affects SEO, but I would say not as expected.

I don't know when it was changed but I noticed this just yesterday. As part of the ongoing reorganization, it looks like admin decided that only top 4 coins with the highest engagement/interaction will have their own board while the rest were demoted to sub-board of Other Popular Coins.

It's faster to navigate now.

I think it is better.
Personally,  I still find it hard to navigate because the top boards are just trash (referrals, airdrops, earn, etc).  I just skip them and try to find technical boards below..

Imo  what is good for seo is something like this

"How to recover bnb from exodus?" And find a topic here
"I lost my ethereum tokens from meta wallet ", and find a topic here.

Currently, results for this kind of questions goes to btt or reddit , mainly. Or some blogs.

I think technical boards have low activity. I always try to participate there but sometimes people don't even find them.

I posted a question long ago and I found the solution before anyone find my post

I completely agree that this forum needs its boards to be rearranged, I checked and discovered that the boards are divided into 7 categories, and the 8th one being the archive category.
First in the category is the EARNING
Second is LEARNING AND NEWS
Third is CRYPTOCURRENCY DISCUSSION FORUM
Forth is CRYPTOCURRENCY ECOSYSTEM
Fifth is MARKETPLACE
Sixth is FURTHER DISCUSSION
Seventh is LOCAL.

In order to make the rearrangement more simple and less complicated, I will suggest that admin start by rearranging this categories.
For me, I think CRYPTOCURRENCY ECOSYSTEM should come first on top, followed by CRYPTOCURRENCY DISCUSSION FORUM, then LEARNING AND NEWS followed by MARKETPLACE, then EARNING followed by FURTHER DISCUSSION, then LOCAL come last, while ACHIEVE continue to be in its current position.

We can start with the above arrangement, then later on and with time, the admin can begin moving the boards to the appropriate category they should be.

Again, this is just a suggestion, same way examplens suggested.

Looking at the change the admin made (adding a signature campaign redirect), that board will remain on top.

Your first choice has at least 15 subs. It doesn't make sense for the Learning and News to be pushed down. If anything, it should be at the top because it's where you should see the latest events/news. I find it more convenient to scan the news section first before reading boards for specific coins/tokens.

Telegram bots are as effective as anyone who has turned on edit notifications realizes. Thanks to him for this update, no matter what member posts on any board his notifications pop up and are easy to see at a glance. Because before had to find a place how to post who posted? 
But now it is possible to find the solution at a glance. And the admin is currently very busy updating the forum, he is working hard and we will see more updates in the future.

Yes. I have noticed the changes as well.
The more time I spend here, I get used to it because I know where the board I am looking for. If the admin makes a lot of changes, I feel like the old members will be unhappy about the changes. Because they are already good with how it is now, and it's easier for them to navigate the forum.

We feel uncomfortable because the forum is new to most of us, and we are trying to match everything with the other forum. But as I said, I am also getting used to this forum and feel like it's okay. Altcoinstalks don't have to be BitcoinTalk. I ignore the boards where I do not write!

The delete button is now the only thing remaining--inactive and a few sub-boards have been removed, the forum is faster and easier to use, some local boards are becoming highly active, and the number of posts and active members has increased. Campaign managers are beginning to get traffic, which is why the payout has increased. Kudos to the admin and his team for working to make this a pleasant place to communicate and learn.

You can add your own delete button but you first need to pay for it and burn some alt tokens ;)
If you don't want to do that than you can always contact admin or moderators and tell them to delete some of the posts you don't want anymore.
This is not perfect solution but it's working.

I have that privilege on my local board, which is more important, but I'm not sure I'll ever need it on the general board because I don't have any ANNs to bump and delete yet.

I hope signature managers are burning some ALT token s, though, as a small way to give back to the forum.

I saw the post from OP and revisited the home page. The Cryptocurrency Ecosystem section now looks very organized. Further Discussions section is still confusing. Trash and Quarantine & Test Area means same to me. Entrepreneurship, Business & Online Work Forum board is covered by Marketplace section already. There are still many improvements cam be done to make the homepage makes more simple.

Moderation on Bitcointalk is considerably more difficult than here; the traffic is insane, and moderators have to cope with tens of thousands reports each month. It's not an easy work, but the payoff is worthwhile. Theymos keeps them on their toes;D.
