Campaigns and Forums Traffic

[Ambatman]

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.

[Freemind]

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
