Forums...

Forums are a great way to network, learn new things and help others when and wherever possible. I belong to several of these virtual communities-- two of which I am going to discuss here.

The first, the Lunar Pages Forum is a good forum for me because they are also my web hosting company. Issues specific to Lunar Pages' customers are addressed here. They even have a Pre-Sales Topic area, where anyone thinking of joining, can pulse the community on whether or not their needs can be satisfied as a Lunar Pages' customer. However, these are not the only topics covered by this forum. Discussions on a wide variety of subjects are also addressed. Site owners can find useful information that may help them with their website or online business. Check them out...

The second is WebMaster-Talk.com. This is a widely used forum and many topics are covered. I myself recently joined this forum. I like this forum because of the many topic areas covered by the wide variety of users. This forum also features a lot of useful links for webmasters.

Before joining any forum, read all of the membership and posting rules associated with each forum. Though I joined the Lunar Pages forum in July 2002, [right after signing with Lunar Pages], I rarely used this forum [until now-- see my late introduction] and so I am really a newbie in the forum world. In my case, I read the rules after joining and therefore may have made one or two mistakes...
