Ultimate Guide For Getting Traffic From The Warriorforum Part 1

 jens  March 21, 2015  Money Making Guides  5 Comments

If you’re promoting products in the internet marketing niche, then the Warriorforum is one of the best places to get traffic.

The Warriorforum is the biggest internet marketing / make money online forum on the planet, and more importantly, it’s full of people who are looking for help to get started.

So when you think about it, there’s no better place to find laser-targeted traffic.

However, you need to know how to go about it ofcourse. 

If you’re just starting out yourself, you might think you’re in trouble because how on earth will a complete newbie drive traffic to his / her offers?

Don’t worry, this guide will teach you exactly how!

I already explained a very easy method in my guide to making money from forum signatures, but in this guide I’ll dig a little deeper and show you some cool methods to expand on that.

I have split this guide up in 2 sections, the free traffic methods and the paid traffic methods.

Don’t worry though, if you’re on a budget you can still drive a good amount of traffic to your site(s). And even the paid methods aren’t that expensive, and if you know what you’re doing you can easily scale things up. 

So if you’re ready, let’s roll!

TRAFFIC FROM YOUR WARRIORFORUM SIGNATURE

Yeah I know, that’s the exact method I explained about in my other guide right?

Well there I explained exactly how to use your signature to make money and optimize your results, but what I didn’t show was some results from posting regularly on the forum.

Well here you can see a screenshot of my click tracker to show you exactly how much traffic you can send to your squeeze page if you put in some effort:

As you can see I got a total of 143 clicks on my signature link in about 10 days. In those 10 days I posted about 60 posts, which is not that much (about 30 minutes per day).

And as you can see most traffic actually comes from The US which is pretty good.

Obviously this is something you need to build up over time. I have 1600+ posts in the forum and it’s a fact that you get more clicks the bigger your post count grows.

I even get clicks from posts I made about a year ago, pretty cool huh?

So don’t neglect this method and get started straight away, you’ll be thankful for it down the road.

While I mainly post on the Warriorforum to get traffic, another reason I post is for the simple fact that helping other people gains trust.

Seriously, you would be surprised how many people straight up ask which products they should buy to start making money. 

TRAFFIC FROM YOUR WARRIORFORUM BLOG

A very underused but very effective way to get some easy targeted traffic is to write a post on your personal Warriorforum blog.

I have to be honest here, I haven’t used this method a lot myself at the moment I’m writing this. So this is a perfect method to do a case study about.

I have only 1 post in my blog (which took me about 15 minutes to create) and the results are amazing:

As you can see, I got about 300 views on this blog post, and even better, more than 50% of the people that viewed my blog actually clicked through to my site!

Well, I wrote this blog post about 6 months ago, but that’s just from 1 post!

Let’s do some math here:

• 1 blog posts generates 30 clicks per month
• 10 blog posts generate 300 clicks per month
• 50 blog posts generate 1500 clicks per month

You see the potential here? I do and I will start using this method pretty soon to see if my calculations are accurate and report back with results.

But then again, even if the results are only half as good as what I believe is possible, I will happily take the 750 clicks to my site. It only takes about 15 minutes to write the blog post too.

My approach will be fairly simple: Volume!

Every time you post a new blog entry, it gets actually shown on the Warriorforum homepage, if you scroll down you can see that:

That definitely brings a good amount of clicks instantly.

Please note: If you write a blog post, make sure not to spam or the post will be deleted. You don’t have to write a 1000 word article, but make sure the people that read it got value and you can add a link to your post at the bottom.

Creating a blog is very simple, just follow the steps below.

Go to the top menu and in the blog tab click “Post To My Blog”:

After that you’ll arrive at a page with a text editor which is basically the same as if you would post a reply or topic in the main forum:

So don’t waste any more time and get started now!

TRAFFIC FROM THE BEST ONLINE RESOURCES SECTION

Another free traffic method you can use to drive some free clicks to your website is thebest online resources section.

Honestly, this isn’t the most popular section in the forum and you need to provide a good quality report, but if you do just that you can easily get hundreds, even thousands of free clicks to your site(s).

There’s a couple of benefits to this section too:

• Posts don’t need to get approved by a moderator. They can get deleted though if you don’t follow the rules, so you need to link to a free resource and not a squeeze page or affiliate link, but that speaks for itself.
• You don’t have to write extensive posts. Writing a blog takes some time, this section will spare you from the extra work (even if it only takes 15 minutes) because all you need to write basically is a catchy headline and a link. Seriously, if you make the thread title appealing you’ll get up to 90% click through rate!
• Your signature is allowed in this section. So this is an easy way to get tons of exposure for both your free offer and your signature links (which contain your squeeze page).

There are some posts which have a decent amount of traffic, just check this:

These threads were started about 6 months ago though, but still, this is not bad for free traffic.

Now as I said, you can’t link to your squeeze page though, so you’ll need to be a bit creative in order to get sign-ups and / or sales.

The best thing you can do is to add a page which has 2 offers. One offer is the freebie you promised to give away, the other is a free offer that links to your squeeze page.

Here you can see an example of that:

So the image is the download link for the free offer, and the free bonus link is a link to your squeeze page. This way you can still get some subscribers for free without breaking the rules. 

STARTING YOUR OWN THREAD: THE EXPERT METHOD

Alright this method to get traffic from the Warriorforum is a little ninja tactic that will not only get you a lot of traffic, but also build up your rep in the forum.

Honestly, you’ll need a little experience before you can use this method, but if you do then the results can be really phenomenal.

The idea is fairly simple: you post a super high quality thread on the forum that genuinely helps people out.

Here you can see an example of that:

As you can see, the thread that got 35,617 views! Here you can read the thread.

This particular thread explains a way to build your list and set up your funnel. It’s a system I have been using myself a lot too so it definitely works, and this get acknowledged by other forum members too.

The reason I know this method works so well is very simple, I made a bunch of sales from it! 

Oh really? It’s not your thread right?

Yeah that’s right, but a couple of months after Frank created this thread he contacted me. At the time I was running a Wso selling a complete done for you sales funnel, which used the same strategy as the concept Frank talked about in his thread. So basically sending people to a training site after they subscribe and drip-feeding the content instead of just sending follow up emails.

He was getting so much PM’s from people asking him to set up a funnel for them, that he posted a reply in his thread:

The result was amazing, I got contacted by dozens of people and made just as much sales!

So what are the main benefits of this method?

• Gain authority in the forum by proving you’re an expert
• Tons of exposure for your signature link(s)
• Being able to connect with numerous people

Granted, you need to have a lot of knowledge about the topic you post about.

However, when you do, this is a super cool method to put yourself out there and benefit from it in the long run.

STARTING YOUR OWN THREAD: THE SEO METHOD

So what about when you’re not a complete expert? Can you still start a thread and benefit from it?

You sure can!

To be honest, you don’t have to be an expert to provide value to the community. By doing some research you can easily create long term exposure.

First let me ask you a question: I’m sure you have been doing tons of Google searches looking for info related to making money online right? So how many times have you seen a thread from the Warrioforum pop up as the first search result?

Yes that’s right: a lot!

That’s because the Warriorforum is an authority site that gets ranked in Google very easily. For this method we’re going to leverage the power of this authority. Here’s what we’ll do:

• Create a super informative thread (1000+ words)
• Add a bunch of keywords we can easily rank for
• Blast backlinks to the thread

That’s about it.

Want some proof? Check this:

As you can see, all these threads have very few replies, meaning the majority of traffic is not coming from the forum. These threads simply rank for numerous keywords in Google and that’s how they get so much traffic.

It’s a fact that 20-40% of the first search results get clicked, so if you can rank 10-20 highly searched keywords in Google, your thread will get this much exposure too.

Here you can see the results of several studies regarding click through rates of the 5 first position in the Google search results over the years:

And guess what, if a Warriorforum thread ranks first place in Google, it will probably get much more clicks than a blog or any other website.

How many times do you click through to the Warriorforum when it ranks number one for the search term you just typed?

I do about every time. 

Alright now that you see the power of this method, let’s take a closer look on how to go about setting this up.

RESEARCH INTERESTING TOPICS

First head over to the main internet marketing discussion section of the forum, and rank the threads so the one’s with the highest rating are shown on top:

Then look for a thread with fairly general tips, something like “10 tips to do this and that”, here you can see some examples:

Browsing the most popular threads should give you an idea about what type of threads are searched for and informative.

So when you picked a category, doing research to write an interesting thread that offers value to the community shouldn’t be too hard. A simple Google search and tons of results will pop up to give you enough information to start writing an informative article.

KEYWORD RESEARCH TO RANK THE THREAD IN GOOGLE

So the next step is to do keyword research. My favorite tool is Jaaxy, which is free for up to 30 searches, which should be more than enough for this method. The free version is a bit limited for the searches but 30 searches should provide you enough keywords to get started.

In the Jaaxy dashboard you can enter a keyword in the search box as you can see here:

And it will look for related keywords which you can target:

As you can see this is an amazing tool and shows how easy or hard it is to get that first page ranking.

The red color means it will be hard, the green will be very easy.

Don’t forget that you’re not trying to rank a brand new site. You’re posting high quality content on an authority site which easily ranks for internet marketing related terms. So any score above 4O shouldn’t be too much of an issue to rank for, and as you can see from traffic stats, you can get tons of hits to the thread you create over time.

How many keywords should you target?

As much as possible!

You shouldn’t just target short keywords either. There’s nothing wrong with targeting up to 10 long tail keywords that could potentially drive hundreds of visitors to your thread.

How to optimize your thread for on-page Seo?

The same way as if you would do on-page Seo when writing a blog post.

This means you shouldn’t stuff your thread with the keywords you want to target. If you create a 1000 word post, you shouldn’t add any keyword more than 2-3 times to rank for it.

THE SECRET SAUCE: BUILDING BACKLINKS TO YOUR THREAD

If you’re targeting keywords with low competition (the green color), then this isn’t even needed to rank your thread.

The problem is that this won’t bring in too many visitors because the traffic will certainly be low.

So in order to rank for keywords with higher competition and eventually drive tons of traffic, you’re going to need to build backlinks.

How will we do that?

Very simple: order a gig on SeoClerks.

If you’re new to Seo and building backlinks, then the easiest thing you can do is to simply order a gig at this site that got tons of Seo gigs available.

This is a site similar to Fiverr, but specialized in Seo services.

When you got your account activated, go to the marketplace and enter “Backlinks” in the search box:

Then you’ll find tons of gigs that provide backlinking services for less than $10:

Now you probably wonder and you might have heard before that blasting backlinks to your site won’t rank it and actually hurt it.

This is true for new sites which haven’t got any authority yet, but for established sites as the Warriorforum this doesn’t matter really.

There’s no way the search engines will penalize a site like that, and it actually helps to get pages ranked when you build tons of backlinks to a certain page.

To add some more link juice to the mix, you can order some social signals too. These are dirt cheap and will definitely help your thread rank even faster:

You see that? You can get 600 high PR social signals for just $1. 

So if you implement these steps, there’s no way you won’t benefit from this method in the long run.

Just think about it, if you can create a thread that gets 100K views, how much income will that generate for you?

One of the most important aspects of becoming successful online is branding yourself. This is one of the best ways you can achieve that without too much work involved. You can basically set everything up in a couple of hours, and reap the rewards for years to come!

So I hope you have learned a lot from the first part of this guide.

The only thing that can stop you from driving tons of traffic to your squeeze page, your affiliate links or your own products is when you don’t take action on what you have just learned.

In the next part of this guide I will talk more about the paid traffic methods that can be used to drive traffic from the Warriorforum. And trust me, these are just as great as the free one’s.
