Welcome to TrafficPlanet.com

Here are our forum rules:

(1) We are all here to help advance our tactical knowledge about SEO and Conversions/Monetization.

As such, let's stick to the issues surrounding SEO and Conversions/Monetization and, metaphorically, play the 'ball' and not the 'woman' or 'man'. We all had to start from a zero knowledge base so, for example, the dismissal of 'dumb questions' by newbies lacks perspective.

Let's keep it reasonably civilized and contribute to the community, not our own egos.

From BacklinksForum, I know that most members will do that anyway but it is worth having it explicitly spelt out for a few troublemakers.

(2) Signature links ARE all dofollow (though we don't have any PR - yet! It's coming).

Affiliate Links in members' signatures ARE acceptable IF they are identified as such after the link e.g. (aff link).

Affiliate Links WITHIN posts are NOT acceptable and those posts will be removed when identified by Moderators.

(3) As was the case on BacklinksForum, Anna - anna(at)terrykyle.net - is the Advertising Manager here for Banner Ads and Classifieds.

Make sure that you read the Classified Ad rules here or Banner Ad info here before approaching her.

(4) TrafficPlanet is completely OPPOSED to the illegal sharing of creator's original digital work and/or software.

This site does NOT condone, encourage or support illegal file sharing. Members found to be involved in such activity will be immediately and permanently expelled from this forum.

(5) Classified advertisers (and buyers) are expected to conduct themselves in a professional, responsive and helpful manner.

All Classifieds MUST have a clear Refund Policy at the bottom of their Sales Letter before they will be allowed to go live.

Any Classifieds featuring a kind of 'Make Money Online' product or program MUST provide video proof of earnings from use of the product or program - not from sales of the product or program itself. Contact Anna if that is unclear.

(6) All members can help keep this community in great shape.

If you see a spam post or suspicious activity, report it immediately and the Moderators will act. Thanks for your help on this.

Further rules suggestions are welcome below...

Good to be here. Always looking for a good place to share and learn strategies and techniques.

Hi Terry,


I'm new here and just finished reading the rules of the forum. I'll surely follow them.

Hello, Terry - I've just registered . You mention in the Forum Rules that signature links are do-follow but when I turn my "NoDoFollow" plugin on, the links turn PINK, not purple.  Can you explain this, please, because I'm confused?

[Alan]

Glad to be here and glad to see the focus on conversions and monetization here. I really like where this site is going. Been following Terry for a while from previous forums too.

[Greg Fowler]

Hi Terry, glad to be a member of the forum, but I do have a question about the forum rules and signature guidelines.  In the signature part it says that I am allowed one URL, but I see others with more than one?  Could you briefly explain?  Thanks.

Not sure where you are seeing one url, I believe you are now allowed three lines and images are no longer allowed because of the craziness

This is what I am seeing:

Edit Signature

Your signature may contain:

• • Up to 0 images
  
• • Images up to 0 x 0 pixels
  
• • Up to 1 URLs
  
• • Up to 3 lines

It is no big deal to me, just thought I would let you know it is a nice navigational forum.

Hmm..... let me check on that, I knew we limited the lines and the images but was not aware the urls were limited to one.

OK Vlad is going to update the url message. As long as you stick to the three lines and label any affiliate links you will be good to go with multiple links.(The new limit is now 4 links)

added number of links

[Greg Fowler]

Thank you gentlemen,

I wasn't trying to make a big deal about it, but just though either there are restrictions for new members, or if the script may have been wrong.  I am just surprised that no one else has brought this to your attention.  Again, thanks.

No problem, the sig rules were just changed recently. There was really not any limit and we were allowing images but they were getting out of control .

[Greg Fowler]

I can undersand, our firm has a forum and the mods have to stay on top of things.  I appreciate your help.

[Marvin Ramirez]

Hello! I just tried to sign up without  my Facebook  account and couldn't sign in. FYI Great forum by the way.

[Greg Fowler]

I believe the best thing to do is to sign up through Facebook so you can see the person who you are "foruming" with, if that is a word, which I doubt.  It is better to have transparency, in my opinion.  Possibly the mods have something set different if you do not sign up through facebook, either way you are in and it is a great place to be.

At what point did the process fail? I am pretty sure that we do not require a facebook account. I went to the join page in a different browser and it gave me the register page without any issues.

While I can appreciate wanting some transparency I would not join a forum that required me to join a third party site with possibly one of the worst records of any company in how they treat their members information. Facebook has a horrible record of both disregarding everyone's privacy and having security holes large enough to drive a semi through when dealing with their third party developers.

Great forum Terry, really glad you started it, I can see this getting quite big over the coming years.

Could be a issue with the user and not your site.

I agree that having privacy is important, but the fact of the matter anything you place on the internet is not private.   There are programs that are available to determine anything and everything about your life.  Not gonna mention who has them, but I am sure you know, however, the main point is if you do not have anything to hide then you do not have anything to worrry about.  And I am not talking about your basic premise to privacy within the realm of the Govt.  Everyone with common sense should know by now if you do not want anyone to read your information, do not put it on the internet.

Glad to see you here, this appears to b one of the better managed and user friendly forums around.  Not your typical Vbulletin forum, which makes this one extremely unique by nature and attractive to the visitors.
