The Webmaster Forum

There are over millions of forums out there. Only way to be known and attract others is to be unique. When I say 'being unique' I mean having your own custom style, tools, helpful articles, and other resources that would give a reason for visitors to become a member at your forum. If you have any good tools, articles or anything that stands out from other competitor forums then that's called being unique!

This relates not only to forums, but also to anything... sites, blogs, forums, etc.

If your not unique, your just like the rest, and that's boring! :biggrin:

I totally agree with you. Although, these days you've to spend a lot of money to be unique. If you have a begin capital to start with, then that's a good start. I'm guessing you'll need around 120 dollars to even take the step to be unique.

I don't think being unique with a blog needs money. Basically everything is free, see. All you need is, unique with content and just do some SEO, which is the hard part, for me at least.

To me, being unique means providing something to your visitors / readers that other sites cannot give them. In a forum, for example, valuable contents and the exact moderation rates (don't over moderate, don't moderate too little either).

Blogs, in the other hand, needs to focus more on contents since people come to read what you have to say. Your word is unique, and that is what your readers are looking for.

One example of a very very unique forum is namepros. The live auction facility there is too good. And for forums, its uniqueness which sets them apart from the crowd. Otherwise, all forums, be it DP, SP, GP, WT, WP or any other - all are same.

Members, and their loyality to the forums sets it apart from others.

Be one of the first few to catch onto a new trend. This is something that comes by once every couple of years, and it gives you the opportunity to become and industry "giant".
