Adult Webmaster Interaction: Message Boards & Radio
by Max Zambrano, AdultChamber.com
PART TWO: Some Things to Avoid
PART ONE
Try to avoid cross posting. Cross posting is when you post the same
message on every topic of a message board. This not only makes other
members mad, it can make board administrators very annoyed with you,
and in most cases they will delete all but one, leaving it not necessarily
where you wanted it to reside. Also, avoid starting duplicate threads
about the same topic - consolidate your ideas into one main post and
make the most of it.
Avoid spamming multiple boards. By copying and pasting your identical
message on ten boards, you'll make it harder on yourself trying to
follow up on the responses. Keep in mind that many webmasters visit
multiple boards. This discourages them from responding to your post
since this practice is known to be a breach of etiquette. Try rephrasing
your question or announcement for each board, or meld it to fit into
existing threads that are still active and relevant to your post.
Finally, avoid extremely long posts. Use links in your post to your
advantage. For example, if you wish to share an article or piece of
news with other board members, introduce the article with the main
points highlighted and linked to the article where members can read
more about it. Copy and pasting copyrighted material without authorization
is illegal, and long copy will discourage responses for those who
do not have to time to read the entire piece. If something you find
is post-worthy, do other members a favor by providing a brief summary,
and highlight the points of interest you wish to discuss.
Time Saving Tools
There are some new and highly effective tools now available to adult
webmasters to help manage time when it comes to posting on message
boards. Most notably is BoardTracker.com, by Ron Kass. BoardTracker
allows you to search over 60 top adult webmaster boards at once! Simply
enter a keyword to search, such as your name to see if you have been
mentioned, your company name for rumor control, or to offer support
or service to clients who may post for help, or any topic of interest
such as "submitting to TGPs" or "Visa." BoardTracker also allows you
to receive notices when certain keyword search terms are found- notices
can be received by e-mail or ICQ! BoardTracker requires a small registration
fee to access all features, but this time saving tool will earn you
your money back within the first week!
Another board-searching tool is provided at BoardsScanner.com. Newbies
and experienced webmasters alike can learn more about BoardsScanner,
articles, other software, news, etc. from the webmasters themselves
at AdultWebmasterHangout.com from AdultChamber.com, as well as at
Klixxx.com and others.
Webmaster Radio
Taking the 'Net by storm, adult Internet radio is becoming increasingly
more popular as producers provide a place where webmasters can tune
in, get on the air themselves, and interactively chat with one another
during the show. To participate, all you need is Winamp/Windows Media
Player and IRC, both free for download online. You will be provided
with a link to access the audio. If you experience trouble, simply
right clicking on the link can "Copy Link Location" which you then
add the location URL to your player. Often, a Java-based chat room
hosted from your browser is available, but IRC includes more features
and a stronger connection response time. Simply set up your preferences
and add the domain name location (such as irc.webmasterlive.com),
then enter the provided group name designated by the show - such as
"#group."
Webmaster Radio Shows are fun to participate in, highly informative,
and webmasters are frequently provided special offers from guests
of the show, such as contests for free sample products, special payout
rates, free content, unique opportunities and much more! And since
you can chat with the provider and show's host directly in the room,
you can get all your questions answered immediately and gain access
to information and offers that are limited to only the listeners.
The advantages of spending a few hours per week on Webmaster Interaction
and Networking greatly outweighs the disadvantages when you know what
to look for and what to look out for, as well as how to utilize time
saving tools - and where to spend your time to find the best opportunities
to grow your adult business online.
