..... My question is this: From the more experienced forum owners here, am i doing good so far? I would post the link to show it but im new here, and im, not sure if that is allowed...

This is my 3rd website and thus my most successful one so far. I have learned everything on my own from trial and error and Google searching issues along the way.
Anyways, i think considering my website only launched barely over 2 weeks ago, that im doing somewhat well. I do ALOT of blog/article writing, made accounts on facebook, twitter, squidoo, ect.. Did alot of guest's comments and replies on articles and blogs, just ANYWHERE i can go that is relevant to my niche, i drop a few words, sometimes a paragraph and then my link at the end.

I have a statcount account that shows my traffic flow but i haven't had it since the launch, only a few days, so its "Averages" arent all that accurate yet.
If im allowed to post my link to my statcount summary and my forum let me know and i will.

If im doing good and any webmasters here want to affiliate or team up or work together drop me a few words. Im currently on unemployment so im home and on the net like 24/7. Excuse my "noob-ness", but i only found this website a few minutes ago

Out of the 238 how many don't have sig links or a home page in their profile, assuming you don't have a webmaster forum the ones that have links not related to your subject matter may aswell be deleted.

Barely any? 2-3? Most are sigs that support the forum. It wont let me update my thread with links so here.

Your stats are quite interesting, seems the younger generation is more willing to use other browsers than ie, your top browser useage is chrome and firefox, suprised opera isn't used more.

Yes i noticed that as well. Our age group ranges from about 15-28 the "casual to intense gamer ages" lol.. What were you talking about with my images? Is there something not showing right on one of my pages? Or in a signature?

[Blaze0ne]

One of the intro threads you posted some images from imageshack, if you have an account you can see them, nobody else can well, unless they have an account, most people in the world don't have an account with them though, if you want pics on the forum either allow attachments(This is something I wouldn't allow as it is the weakest point on most forums) or install a coppermine gallery with bridging to the forum.
Coppermine is good and safe, our latest version has been viewed 2099271 times, also if someone hotlinks a photo it is an inlink or you can dissallow hot linking and stick in an advert for your site as default.

Ill stick with bbcode. Our main section is based on "game sharing" and several images/links in each thread. So we use [IMG]imagelinkhere[/ IMG] and [url]http://linkhere[/ URL]
(without spaces in the tags of course :P)

Linking from the coppermine gallery would be bb code, aint many forums allow html, attachments are generally only weak on smf phpbb and other free ones as pics can be binded with code, but I still wouldn't allow the general population attachment priviledges on my vb forum.

Thanks for the tips. Same here with the attachment priveleges either. Too many issues could come along with it, and im on vBulletin so i have html disabled in threads as well..

I have accomplished ALL of this in LESS than 30 days of my forums launch!! I think i am doing great as i am averaging nearly 500 members a month right now! My stats on statcounter show ABOUT 2,000 visits a day and at the LEAST 125 returning members each day!

Anyone who has any gaming forums and wants to affiliate or partner up let me know!!

[Blaze0ne]

I know nothing about games, the game I am playing now is "Commandos" "Beyond The Call of duty", I have no idea of how many years ago I bought that cd, thats how often I play games, plus I have some great domain names on subjects I do have knowlege on that I still haven't developed yet

Ok man I just seen you were a dedicated member here and probably have alot of experience in SEO and im doing pretty well myself. So thought we would make a good team Im all for expanding and going to new niche/projects as well. I want to expand as much as possible!

We are at 489 members now on our main website forum in less than 39 days!
If you decide you would like to partner up and or affiliate/work together in the E-World let me know man
