Review my blackhat forum.

[Jerlene]

I bought the domain ublackhat.com on November 5, 2010. On November 6, 2010 I put a forum on it, MyBB. On November 9, 2010 I officially launched it to the public.

Right away it started to get members and posts. I never did any promoting for it at all but somehow it got to page one of Google for "blackhat forum" and "black hat forum" and I got a bunch of activity. It's been growing really quickly and still no promotion has been done. It already has nearly 300 members and 4,000 posts.

This is my baby. I've been promoting it like crazy and getting custom graphics done for the site.

What do you guys think?

... no promotion has been done...

...I've been promoting it like crazy...

So your lying when you say you haven't promoted. Also 300 members to 4000 posts isn't very good, I have just over 200 members with 11k posts.

Well it's like 10 active members. The rest are just leechers or people interested in purchasing advertising from us.

And I wasn't very clear on the advertising bit. I don't pay for advertising, do PPC, etc. etc.
I've just been placing a link to my site on forums where they allow me to put a "Homepage" in my profile. That's my version of advertising.

For me, Google shows your forum in page 4 when i search as "blackhat forum" and on 5th page when i search for "black hat forum"


By the way. Don't see my signature. Lol.

lmao I've had two spam bots that made a total of 2 spam posts. For the most part, the members are genuine members that I have gotten from reviews on indirectly related forums and websites.
