Hey everyone,
I have tons of experience from literally hundreds of different forums online. Both internet marketing related ones but also in several other niches. - We all know that it's hard to advertise on forums without warnings or ending up with a "fancy reward" from the ban-hammer..
Forums often have strict rules and you need to follow them, otherwise you won't have a chance. - That being said, I've never really worked with infographics before..
So what I'm asking now is, would infographics also be considered to be "spam" if you went on multiple forums and posted your infographic?
Would they treat infographics the same way as the treat regular replies with links?
Best Regards,
hitmeasap

I had my designer vary the infographics slightly to be customized for each forum, but they weren't that different. I changed a little big of the background color and added the forum logo to the top of each infographic. After I got them I went to the forum and did the initial posts, if required, before I posted my sales threads. Some forums ask you to post 20, 35, or 50+ times before you can post a sales thread. Other forums even ask you to be a paid member in order to post, but luckily I've got paid memberships for the bigger forums
Posting infographics can be seen as spamming if you're doing it in the wrong sections because it can be seen as trying to avoid paying for a forum thread submission. Some of the bigger forums, like the ones I'm a paying member of, still require you to pay for a forum thread. It's not much, like $20 to $30 a year, but it's just a way to filter out the cheap skates and increase the quality of the forums marketplace at the same time. I don't usually mind paying for these types of forum posts because the amount of traffic on the forums will easily pay for the listing fee because of the sales that come in.
I would recommend reading the terms of service of each forum you want to post on and make sure you're not breaking any rules. Each forum will have slightly different rules so make sure you're not breaking any of them. One forum may offer free advertising as long as you have XX quality posts while others require you to be a member for at least a year and have a premium account.
Play it safe and read before you post, then find the right section to post in. If you're not sure, you can always email their support desk and get an exact answer. And if you get banned for posting where you were told, you can refer back to the email and show them that's where you were told to put it. Be safe and cover your own ass I actually just did a big marketing campaign, and still doing it, for a website of mine and I posted all infographics as the initial thread :D I had my designer vary the infographics slightly to be customized for each forum, but they weren't that different.
