Profits With Chris

Probably you already know that forums are a great place to do niche research.

In forums, people gather to discuss the issues relating to that niche. They ask the most common questions and the experts reply with the different solutions. Exactly the material that you need to create a great product that will satisfy a need in that market.

The problem is that there are a lot of really low quality forums out there. Some of them are filled with spam, some are deserted, some are commercial. It can be tough to find the really good ones.

I have a number of good methods for finding good forums but one killer query that I use is to search for the phrase “vbulletin“.

So let’s say I wanted to find quality dog training forums. Then I would type into Google:

“dog training” vbulletin

The reason for this is because vbulletin is a type of forum software that is generally reckoned to be “the best”. And for this reason, it is also a paid license (one method is to lease the software) - that’s how valuable it is.

So when you find a site with a vbulletin forum, whose license has had to be paid for by the site owner, then you can generally be sure that it is a decent quality forum.

Do you have any other methods that you personally use to find good quality forums? Please leave a comment as we would love to hear from you
