Make Money Evertime Someone Visits Your Blog: Presenting
Blog Cash Exposed
We all know that blogs and forums are loved by Search Engines and they generate huge traffic for the owners. Now I was looking for a way to combine both but without having to use TWO database and forcing my users to signup twice in order to use my forum and blog.
In my search I found this a cool way to integrate your blog and forum using one simple plugin and the whole process doesn’t take a long time if you know what you’re doing but if you are not a tech person this video will get you up and running setting up your forum to interact with your blog.
Here’s the plugin used: SimplePress-Forum
Enjoy and if you like the video please do leave your feedback or comment
See you soon

Thank you, David.
I can’t imagine an easier way to get a forum installed, but I wouldn’t have known where to go to find this.
As always, you provide great information!

Hi
Great video, thanks a million. I want to go and DO that!
What I’d really like to do is:
1) Have a static page on my blog front page
2) Have a normal blog behind that (on a tab)
3) Have a forum on another tab behind that
How do I do this … or does the forum always take over the whole thing?
Thanks in advance

John, Judi thanks guys I’m really glad you’ll liked the video it was making it.
John to your question I know wordpress gives you the option to have a static homepage, you have to create a new page but it all depends on what version of wordpress you are using. I know of a plugin you can use for static pages but can’t remember the name now.
You can more less tell wordpress what to do now-a-days either with plugins or hacking the theme because that’s the design aspect of your site.
So what you are trying to do should be easy I will have to look into this but as i said you can have static homepage – middlepage – Forum with a little tweak here and there.

Thanks David,
This is something new for me, I am getting to look out for your videos now learn something new every time.

I’m having a problem creating my first blog. More over, once I do get it up where can I go to learn the marketing aspects of blogging. There must be a members site somewhere that teaches that specifically. Could you please direct me with a recommendation? There are so many sites on the net that have member forums for interaction, but how can I research their quality before spending money on an unknown. I have the vidoes instructing me on blog building which I am just beginning to view. That is the simple part. The marketing is the tricky part. I have entered support tickets at your desk and not gotten a response. That is why I am posting this here. Alex
Hey Alex,
I don’t really know any site that really teaches you about the marketing side of blogging, I know there were a few $1000 courses out there for awhile but my thing with most of these high price products are they don’t really work for me.
I like to get my hands dirty and another thing I look for blogs in my niche that are doing good and talk to the owner about how he does it.
I know this might be the answer you are looking for but that’s what I have for you bro.
Find an angle within your nice and blog about it, setup twitter, facebook accounts, use them to drive traffic back to your blog. Forums in your nice make sure your signature file points back to your blog.
Add quality content to your blog, find a few product you can sell or sell join as an affiliate and add a few links to your site, adspace once you have some nice traffic coming in.
These are just some of the things I can think about I do hope it helps bro.

Awesome info, David,
I’m familiar already with FTP, but this is good to know if I ever want to add a blog to my main site. The “read-only” access is straightforward– but I’m still curious about the difference between limited access vs. full access– what are the functional differences for users? Thanks again,
Marc
Marc, this is what the forum creator had to say about the access and permission.
Limited Access – Permission with access to reply and start topics but with limited features.
Full Access – Permission with Standard Access features plus image uploading and spam control bypass.
I hope this helps
