A Rather Disproportionate Number of Downloads to Members on th Forums

[Link999123]

There have been over 1,300 downloads of this app yet there is only 18 members on the forums, what is with that? We need more members sp the community can grow and prosper.

[jareddamodred]

Agreed. Ideas?

[Link999123]

We need to figure out why no one is joining. I personally don't see any reason not to, after all these forums have potential.

[jareddamodred]

I agree. If we come together and brainstorm we can make it happen.

[Link999123]

We could create a video that promotes the app.

[jareddamodred]

That could be interesting. I take it you know a thing or two about doing that? Because I don't.

[Link999123]

Nope I have no clue what I'm doing, but maybe someone else does.
I just asked PeanutButterGamer and AnimeBroMii if they could promote the app in a video or two. Do you know anyone else on youtube that might promote? (because they probably won't)

[jareddamodred]

I know no one on Youtube. I only use it to watch videos. lol I have an account on there but I've only ever uploaded one video and it was of a evil cat.... a real cat, used to be mine.... Anyways, I'm sure we could figure something out. Lots of rookie videos posted up every day. If you have a laptop or something with the ability to record you can do something.

[Link999123]

I'm trying to get a big name out there to promo the app so more people will be directed to the app and forums.

[jareddamodred]

Well, I'm sure you can find someone.... We could spam the comments on nintendo youtube videos as well. Annoying but effective.

[Link999123]

That actually works? Regardless, we don't want to get a reputation for being spammers, because no one will even look at the app.

[jareddamodred]

It works if it's related to what you are posting on. You know? Anyways, you're right about the reputation thing. We will get it.

[Link999123]

I have nothing then, do you have any other ideas?

[jareddamodred]

I'll think about it and come up with some ideas and post tomorrow.

[Link999123]

Ok. I'll continue thinking and post if I get anymore ideas.

[Link999123]

We need something on the forums homepage to encourage guests to sign up. don't you agree?

[jareddamodred]

Yeah, something that catches the eye and makes the person want to be a part of the fun.

[Link999123]

But what is so fun?

[jareddamodred]

The conversations about games and consoles, of course. I have fun.

[ReggieIsBetter]

I'll do some Instagram posting on Nintendo's page and maybe get some famous Nintendo geeks (I think big youtubers are out of the question) to post a pic.

[jareddamodred]

Awesome, every little bit helps.

[Link999123]

Even talking to a friend about this app will help us grow.

[RasmusOlle]

I think i shall talk about this forum on the bithack forum

[Sharksfan2512]

Constant reminders of the forum's presence through the weekly notifications or app news from the Creator will help bring an influx of those who already downloaded the app.

Also forum games can help bring in the fun factor. Incentive is the key to bring newcomers to the forums, but what can we entice them with?

[punx]

Honestly, I love the idea of this app and hope it succeeds! But in this day and age there really are too many different forums/websites/apps to keep up with and I get bad cases of information overload.
I know you probably want to go your own route, but have u considered joining forces with or being part of a bigger forum?
