The WebWorld Community (including the forums for posting ads for free) have re-opened after having been closed several months because of too much spam. This time they have a spam filter installed which hopefully will reduce the number of evil spambots that register and pollute the forums with just spam.

Check it out at www.webworld.nu.

If you had an account before they closed in September you will still be able to login with that account :D

Blog service turned off http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/11/blog-service-turned-off/ http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/11/blog-service-turned-off/#comments Sun, 22 Nov 2009 16:27:14 +0000 WorldTradeForum.com http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/?p=70 Blog service turned off is a post from: the World Trade Forum blog

Due to massive abuse and spam in our free blog service we have been forced to turn it off until we can find a solution to the spamming. Spam is unfortunately always a problem when you run a free service and it's just too bad that these jerk-offs can't stay away but instead just ruin for everyone else…

We've also added yet another rule to fight these abusers. If you register for an account you will have to make a post in the forum within 24 hours from registration. If you don't your account will be removed. This is because we've noticed that spammers tend to register accounts and then start spamming a few days up to 3 weeks later using that account.

DB restored from backup http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/06/db-restored-from-backup/ http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/06/db-restored-from-backup/#comments Fri, 19 Jun 2009 13:17:11 +0000 WorldTradeForum.com http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/?p=51 DB restored from backup is a post from: the World Trade Forum blog

Due to a bug in phpBB we had to restore the database from the latest backup. Since the backup was a few hours old, some posts made from the time the backup was done up until we did the restore of the database have been lost. We're sorry for this, but unfortunately it was the only way we could keep WorldTradeForum.com up and running and we hope you enjoy our site so much that a few lost post wont matter to you.

You can post your posts again, if they follow our rules that is. The forum rules can be found here if you need to read them again.

Since people have problems following the rule about not bumping your topic, and since some spammers post their own ads as replys to other users posts we've limited the possibilities to reply to topics in the free ad part of our forum. We're sorry for that, but we had to since people clearly not follow the rules……

We would also like to remember people that the rules of the forum also apply to the blogs you can setup. By violating the rules in your blog you could have all your forum posts removed too, so please try to follow the rules.

Xavier Media, the owners of this site, just launched a new forum at WebWorld.nu where you can post ads for free and market your products and services (similar to what you can do at this site :) ).

The forum will be similar to the one found here at WorldTradeForum.com, but some different features will be launched at WebWorld.nu just to make the two sites a little bit different from each other. If you have suggestions on features you want us to add you can post about them in the forum at WebWorld.nu.

WebWorld.nu will launch a directory just like WorldTradeForum.com so you can add your site there too, since the more directories listing your site the more visitors you will get :D

Check out WebWorld.nu you too today and let us know what you think.

As you know some of the best ways to get traffic to your site is through the search engines. And as you know search engines love blogs.

If you know how to use blogs you can easily get more traffic to your website just by posting your keywords in the title and having your blogs indexed.

Other ways to get traffic to your site is to use popular free traffic exchanges. They come in many forms such as start (homepage) exchanges, safelists (opt in email ads), toolbar ads such as instantbuzz.com and forums such as the free advertising forum.

If you are looking to kill 2 birds with one stone, you can advertise for free on a new BLOG that actually allows you to place your ads for free on their site.

The reason this is good because you get all the benefits of placing your ads on a BLOG and you all get to advertise for free.

Most people would look at this as a no brainer. Although most webmaster do not like people to advertise on the blogs, this site was made just for that.

It is free to join and thousands are flocking to this service to drive huge traffic to their sites in ju8st days by simply posting one little ad on their home page.

Anyone looking to increase their profits should look in to

Thanks,

World Trade Forum

CreateBanner.com is a free service where you can design banners online without any special skills at all. You just fill out a few forms and create the banners you need to promote your web site, blog or discussion forum. The best part is that it's free :D

Yesterday CreateBanner.com updated their services with some new banner sizes after suggestions from their visitors in their blog at blog.createbanner.com. The new banner sizes they added are:

  • 250×300 – Big button 1
  • 300×250 – Big button 2
  • 180×180 – Square 1
  • 250×250 – Square 2
  • 300×300 – Square 3
  • 180×730 – Extra wide skyscraper 1
  • 250×730 – Extra wide skyscraper 2
  • 300×730 – Extra wide skyscraper 3

These new sizes are available to both VIP members and free users so anyone can try them out. You can of course also create other banner sizes to like the most common standard sizes 125×125, 468×60 and 120×600.

As a special promotion CreateBanner will give 10 users the lucky chance to get a VIP membership each for 24 hours. All you need to do is to sign up at www.createbanner.com/coupons/ using the coupon code UYT38. You need to hurry up a little bit since the coupon is only valid for 10 signups.

CreateBanner.com also got an affiliate program at Clickbank where you can earn some extra money promoting their VIP memberships. More about that can be found in their blog.

Blog upgraded http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/05/blog-upgraded/ http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/2009/05/blog-upgraded/#comments Sun, 24 May 2009 16:35:47 +0000 WorldTradeForum.com http://blog.worldtradeforum.com/?p=28 Blog upgraded is a post from: the World Trade Forum blog

We've just upgraded our blog to WordPress and the amazing thing is that we actually managed to convert the look of phpBB (the forum) to the new blog :D This way the site will look the same no matter if you're in the blog or in the forum part.

All posts where successfully converted into WordPress and we even managed to get the first post on the main page so there's still a connection between the blog and the rest of the site.

To develop this site even more we're doing a little bit of research on other marketing forums and blogs, so feel free to let us know of any forums or blogs you've found where you can market your services and products (free posting forums etc). If you're helping us on this we will give you a couple of links to your sites or affiliate programs as thank you.

While we're asking you for information, please let us know if you want us to add any additional forums or if there's anything else you're missing in our forum. We want to develop the best ad forum on the Internet just for you :D

Also if you happen to know of any poll plug in for WordPress, please let us know.

We've already written about our service at twitter.xaviermedia.com/t/xaviermedia where you could get about 20,000 followers on Twitter, but what about owning the script yourself?

As a member of twitter.xaviermedia.com you could easily build up a down line of over 20,000 followers, but if you own the script you will have exactly everyone to sign up as a follower. Not only the people you refer, but also each and every follower everyone else will refer :D . This could result in a followers count of much more than 20,000 for you as the service "master".

All you need to run this script is a web host offering PHP, CURL, MySQL and rewrite mod, which is basically any host offering Linux or Unix hosting account :D . The installation is extremely easy, you just upload the files to your hosting account and run a setup script. You should have the service up and running within a few minutes ;)

If you've noticed the great potential in having a big follower herd to market your products and services to, then check out this script at XavierMedia.cc.
