Does your forum offer a promotion section? What do you allow to be posted there? What services do you offer?

Yes, but not many have posted topics in mine yet. I have it open though.

I don't have a section but I do allow advertising in their signature & profile. I do have a thread for Achievements where members can talk about anything that is personal or forum related.

Yes Media Planet does.

Yes, she has indeed but not many topics and it's not always popular anyway

I don't. Because they can "encourage" the users to go to "x" website. Kinda the same reason why I don't use Discord for my website(s).

At times I think the same, but It's not always about me or the site it is about others..

SH has a links directory, which is kind of like a promotions section.
Right now the only category is Affiliate but I am planning on an adding category for resources and members sites.

I have a section on FAF where people can promote their forums. I also have a link directory feature too to give something extra.

I approve all links and posts in those feature just to make sure we prevent spam.

I don't have a dedicated section but advertising is allowed in their signature & profile.

Peak does. Which I am going to be updating soon. Adding link directory to the site. Not sure what I will call it. But Debate HQ doesn't. No plans on adding it either.

My forum does not have a promotion section, however, I am thinking to add a marketplace section where users can buy, sell and trade virtual goods and services.

I typically have a promotion forum on my sites, especially if they're in the digital/tech topics. I also typically allow advertising in other places such as signatures and avatars 🙂

 

[Ravenfreak]

Yep my gaming forum does allow members to promote their projects. It doesn't even have to be gaming related either! It's a great way to help other website owners.

Almost all forums I have been on have a promotion section. They are mostly non functional on general forums especially paid to post forums because members are just there to make some bucks.

I have observed this too. You see some promotion sections that have less than 10 threads.

We used to have a forum promotion section, but my online friend built a directory for the software and now we just link to the directory via a redirect forum on the board index of my forum.
