We all know that forums exists, they were there before the social networks and they will be there long after. The forums are built in a way that a visitor can spend hours searching for information and posting and commenting on various subjects.

In forums you will probably find the following types of users:
1. Moderators – Usually the forum police, they will keep the spam out of the forum, delete posts and arrange the threads (a thread is a new subject in a forum) so there won’t be duplicity in the posts.
2. Loyal users – Users who have been posting and commenting for years, you will know that they are there for a long time according to their status (highest as possible) and number of posts (usually a few thousands).
3. Regular users – New or long time users who post from time to time. They are not loyal and bound to disappear some day.
4. Spammers and one time posters – Most of the forum users and you won’t be surprised to read that are – spammers. Sign up either automatically or manually, post about what they are selling and disappear.

These are the types of users in the forums. Now, why do you even need a forum?

1. SEO – forums are UGC – User generated content, if you know how to manage the forum technically, it is bound to be indexed by search engines and you will be seen as a website with a lot of content.
2. Advertising – Forums brings traffic and as such you can advertise in forums and expect immediate traffic and a lot of it (if the forum is any good).
3. For the users it can also be used to get links to their websites (using a signature).
