When I first started my forum, I did a few post exchanges and it helped generate a lot of good content and a few regular members. Over all the experience was very positive. Have you tried post exchanges for your forum?

Yes I do think that they can help a great deal. This is a great way to get some new posts on your site.

I made many new friends with post exchanges. I'd love to do more post exchanges as they get great content but don't take lots of time.

I feel that post exchanges can help but it is annoying when you do posts for them but they never do their part and claim that they do and then it just really is annoying to have to figure all of it out and fix any issues.

I've never done a bad post exchange before. Most times, the forum owner and admin of the other site would show up to exchange posts rather than sending members over to do posting on their behalf. For me, it was a very positive experience and worked as a stop gap to fill in between where regular forum members were not posting. Also, we got regular members off the deal who stayed after the post exchange stopped. That doesn't always happen, but it was nice.

Post exchanges won't work well if you have a full time job and very little time to devote to the other person's forum. For that reason you should buy forum posts or just ask friends to post once or twice a week on your forum.
