User engagement wish list
Here are some user engagement ideas I would like to see from my experience.
I am unable to make this a request for paid services myself, I am more hoping that someone will get ideas for plugin that can do some of this. Please do let me know. I see that I am losing 90%+ of new forum sign ups after the first initial sing up and look around, they never return. They never get engaged in the conversations and leave. I would assume the way to get new users engaged is to send them a number of emails and links through (Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, RSS etc etc) to pull them into the forum they have singed up for. - More welcome emails after 2 days, 1 week, 4 weeks etc. Ability to set this up in the admin section. - Secondary email, and ability to send all email to one or both stated email accounts. Most people have more than one email account now days. - Ability to have part of thread or post text in welcome emails. So that user will see and be reminded of his own post. - Ability to send email after 1 week with "Top 5 conversations in your forum X". - Ways to automatically sort users after what forum they have engaged in, looked at, posted in. So I do not send follow up emails to those interested in oranges to those interested in pears. - Way to give users an incentive to sign up. A lottery for a free iPod, a discount coupon or something other strong incentive. - Monetize the actual singup information by ethically sharing it with others, I am working on a plugin for this that will be launched before long, some of you might find it useful. The revenue can be directed into a incentive to sign up. - "Send this thread or post link to a friend" in the forum interface a button where you can send a post or thread link to a friend by email to engage your friends in your forum engagements. - Invite my friends in sign up, write their email addresses when you sign up and an invitation email "from you" is sent to your friends. - Pay to make sticky. Pay USD 10 to make your post sticky. - Signup tracking code, so I can see where my sign ups came from. Unique id link or tracking script. - "Introduction to new users" videos, on YouTube. How do you use vBulletin? And a way to allow new users to watch this video as they sign up. - A way to automatically engage users that are on YouTube,. Facebook, Twitter etc in the singup process. What about a way to automatically join Twitter feeds, Facebook groups etc in the actual vBulletin signup? |
