Simple: How do you keep your members coming back?

Alright, I can see that. Definitely new content; without it your forum is dead

Also I email users that haven't been on in a while.

I sometimes find those emails quite annoying

 

[StevenF50]

What even if you haven't been on the forum in like 6 months?

 

[Subz]

yh, must be a reason why you didn't go back to the forum.

 

[StevenF50]

Not really, I always forget about forums.

Same, but I do end up visiting the forum just to see the updates

I have 10s of emails every day from different forums spamming it up, but I find it easier to just delete them than unsubscribe to them. :sleep: :LOL:

Good content to keep them interested and wanting more. Active community & helpful / welcoming members. Send regular newsletters & emails, but not too many times per day / week, as the more you send, the more likely they are to not be opened. Run some competitions & prize draws too. Maybe give rewards if you can get some sort of loyalty scheme going.

By writing an article, always reply to every one and a contest every year cause we couldn't afford every month.
