on my forum http://linkexchange.myfastforum.org i been strict on allowing MFF forums only. But im getting people from other forum sites sign up and cant post (dont ask me how they found the site). Is it okay of i allow other forums and websites too? _________________ "Great minds talk about ideas, mediocre minds talk about current events, small minds talk about other peoples" Last edited by CodyT07 on Fri Jul 14, 2006 11:33 pm; edited 1 time in total

I'd stick with just forums as that is what you intended link exchange to be for in the first place, "A source for the forum your looking for"

Allowing websites will step away from your original intent.

Yes it will step away but since its getting on a few search engines i could expand so i can add variaty to it. More members mean more exchanges, if even if its web site exchanging with a forum. _________________ "Great minds talk about ideas, mediocre minds talk about current events, small minds talk about other peoples"

Link exchange forums are a bad idea... Most forums, like mine has sections for link exchanging... On my forum we dont need to advertise others to bring in the members, we do that as we're so darn good (Ya, you know it too ) Anyway, Cody... It was good to start with but if you let to many 'outsiders' post their saites/fms it wll just become a link farm, somthing frowned apon by admin... _________________

Codys forum is moderated. There is a big difference between a bad link farm and a good link farm! _________________ Family Friendly Shareware \| \| Web Design/Services \| Free Forums

Gamble yes, If all else fails ill revert back to original intent but how people are finding the forum is beyond me. The forum is only on MSN, nd ranked very low. I must be doing something right.
And im quoting myself from a post while back.

Actually the name Ziddy1232 is quite interesting - i wont go into full detail but : It has something to do with thestars, and was given to me by an ex-girlfriend (Who actually is now a lesbian ). I have had the name since 2002, and it was in Wikipedia! (Because i put it there) _________________
