Many of the old "Warriors" are getting back to the forum.

Hi Warriors,

I've been doing internet marketing for over a decade now. I first started back in 2008 and I owe most of my success to this forum for all the amazing tips and tricks I was able to discover here that made me very successful 12 years ago.

I was doing article marketing through ezinearticles and built my email list while making great residual income with clickbank.

I started a few offline business afterwards and I couldn't focus on both, so I had to pause online marketing for a while.

I haven't visited this forum for years and I even forgot my old username. So I had to create a new one.

After I got used to the new look of the forum, I saw that there are many people who are "coming back" to the forum. Most of them are old members or people who were readers for years and came back to contribute to the forum.

Do you agree that the Warrior Forum is once again becoming biggest and greatest forum for internet marketing with many old members getting back on board.

What are your thoughts on this one?

Thank you for your inputs and stay safe out there!

Best wishes,

John Cobham

    That's the only (well, maybe there's a couple more) positive side of the pandemic. I see the same happening on DP, Twitter, Facebook. People are flocking back in hopes to get their share of the pie. Twitter is super busy with IMers (new and old) who seem to be active on there 24/7.

    Yes, I only returned in the last week or so. I have been busy working as my clients are all over the world and I don't need to meet them. I still score work from people reading my posts in here from way back when I was a novice.


    Yes, a lot has changed, and not always for the better, but you never know what's happening until you visit once more.

    Welcome!

    Like you, I lost my logins and changed emails
    so I was told to setup a new account. I have
    been here since 2004. I had my first websites
    hosted at Host4Profit.

    I like to check in from time to time and dispense
    advice since I am more experienced now.

    I have not noticed any of the old timers from
    back in the day like Willie C, Robbin T, Steve W
    and Paul M. I wonder what happened to them.

      Willy and Paul very much in the game on FB.

      I was spending some time at Fastlane but you have to filter the Lambo/ Million Dollars chat and age 15.

      Still great stuff here and over there.

      But Internet Marketing is how the owner of that other Forum made his Millions.

      Paul was treated pretty poorly by the new management. I wouldn't expect to ever see him back here.

        For sure it been crazy durin' what I am now termin' "the Enlightened Imprisonment" but I gotta confess drawin' streetkool bunnies ain't wanna my many talents.

        Dunno, jus' can't get the frickin' ears right, I guess -- not to mention achievin' a perfect artistic blend between angle of whiskah an' violence of messagin'.

        So I mostly been spendin' my days growin' horns ... yanno, for when I can get out more an' resoom my habityool terrorizin'.

        tbh it's the hamstahs I feel sorry for.

        They bein' sprung from cage aftah cage right across the globe to offah comfort an' solace to the homebound, with no real clue they ain't bein' trooly loved jus' for bein' 'emselves.

        An' when all this is ovah ... they gonna feel real hurt ... shakin' their iddy biddy heads tryin' to figure why nowan don't love 'em no more.

        *sniff*

        Curse you, Antsy ... now you got me BLUBBIN'!

          Those be the vermin that occupy said basement and they not be called hamstah's lass. Rats be the ones with longer tails and more desperate looks. Your eyesight will improve and your art skill will return when you stop cooking Breaking Bad substances down there.

    Keep in mind that WARRIORFORUM still has a higher traffic ranking than some other 'busy' forums

    The big difference? WF has a wider number of sub-forums while 'busier' forums have less and this leads to more threads in one sub-forum instead of being all spread out like WF

    More threads invites more posts and this is readily apparent in 'busy' forums

    The bottom line: WF is still the place to be

      Not sure what forums you are comparing it to, but a place like BHW has far more subforums than WF does.

      It all depends on what you are looking for.

      For example, for SEO topics, it is one of the worst forums to get good information on. BHW, Wicked Fire, and a couple of Reddit forums are far better these days (and BHW probably always was).

      On the other hand, if you are looking to exploit noobs, pretend to be a guru, sell rehashed garbage, then yes, WF is still probably the place to be.

      There are a few gems in the offline marketing and copywriting areas from time to time.

      The PPC area used to be pretty good too but is mostly dead now.

      If you are talking about the War Room. Yes it still exists but it's been changed to the point it is worthless. A lot of stuff has been archived. Plus they raised the price too high. At one time it was worth every penny not any more

      Your still a member there it is listed right below your user name if viewing it in the Classic View.

      What were you doing to make that $100 plus a month, you may want to try that again? If you want some motivation read this entire thread in the Path Section of the forum. You can learn a lot from this even if E-bay is not in your area. The tips to optimize photos and description is worth it.

      On even a cursory examination it turns out the link in your sig is an affiliate link. If you truly had been here before you would know that is a STRICT NO-NO.
      And "disguising" the affiliate link with a bitly link does not render it right either.
