What’s Your Toughest Challenge in Building Community?
If you’re reading this blog, chances are you’re looking for ways to build or improve the community on your web site or blog. It’s certainly not easy, it doesn’t come for free, and it can require a great bit of maintenance until it reaches critical mass.
So where are you struggling? I’d like to hear from our readers so we can dive more deeply into the specific topics you care about.
Are your forums full of one or two reply “dead threads” and unanswered questions? Is your blog suffering from a lack of comments? Are your forums dominated by one or more “forum trolls” who inject negativity into every conversation? Maybe you have a large number of users who only visit your site a couple of times and then never come back. Unsure of how your web site or business model could even benefit from community?
Point me to your site and be as specific as possible about your problems. I’ll be happy to share my thoughts, and we’ll invite other readers to chime in to. Just imagine… our community helping you build yours!
