How to build an online community

Each day lots of bloggers and website owners try to build online communities but without getting any results. There are lots of good advices on the web about community building however lots of them are superficial , lacking deep insight and were never tested.

In this article I will give you tips that can help you build an online community, whether it’s a forum, a blog or something else.

Steps to build an online community

  • Identify passionate members:A community is formed of a group of people who are passionate about a certain subject and who find a benefit in interacting with each other. Not all the community members will have the same passion, but instead some are going to be much more passionate than the others. This will appear in the time they spend on your site, the number of comments they submit and the length of the messages they type.
  • Reward the passionate members: As soon as you find a passionate member you must reward him by giving him a title that is different than regular users, posting his name as a top contributor or giving him privileges that other visitors doesn’t have. The main reason you must do this is because a community needs a foundation in order to be built and there is no better foundation then few passionate members who feel that they are recognized
  • Move an existing community to your website : You can develop a Facebook group, a yahoo group or any other form of online communities then start notifying the members that the community will be moved to your website. Experiment has shown that its much easier to create a community on a popular website first then transfer it somewhere else. see How_to_start_a_successful_websiteHow to start a successful website
  • Allow all means of 2 way communication: Create a forum, allow people to comment on blog posts, let people be able to contact each other and try to reply to each post as much as you can. An online community is all about a two way communication between a group of people, if the communication doesn’t go through properly then your community won’t succeed.
  • Why should people join your community?: There are thousands of online communities out there on the web, why would people join yours? Unless you provide them with things they can’t find somewhere else like great content, informative posts or entertaining place to stay then they won’t join your community see How to get your blog noticed
