Great post! I completely agree that authentic leadership is the backbone of a thriving online community. It’s easy to tell when someone is leading just for the sake of power versus when they genuinely care about fostering a positive space.
For me, accountability and openness are huge. I’ve seen...
Thank you so much! I will do some research on it as I am completely new to this and have no idea what I am doing lol. I am glad there are a lot of videos on the subject thouh. I appreciate your help!
Thank you thank you! I will look into it :D I don't see myself hitting thee limit if you've...
Currently I am working on videos for my business Facebook & Instagram page however I am looking for a good free video editing software. I am a newb so I want something that will be easy for me to use and understand. I want free software because at this point I am not able to afford paying for it...
I think that in the beginning of your forum or website you should handle your social media yourself as you may want to use your funds wisely so you don't go broke early on. Once your forum or website is making money that would be a good time to then hire someone.
Social media is definitely...
Building a strong and engaged following is all about creating value and fostering genuine connections. Here are a few key steps:

For me, a good upgrade...
Celebrating community milestones is a fantastic way to keep members engaged and show appreciation for their contributions! Here are a few ways that I will be celebrating community milestones:

Hey @TulleTweed&Co welcome to the community!
Starting your own blog and building your site from scratch is a huge achievement, especially when you're learning as you go. It’s awesome that you’ve created a space to share your work on your own terms—that kind of creative freedom is so valuable...
I don’t think staff team leaders are necessarily a thing of the past, but I do think their role has evolved. In the early days of forums, having a clear hierarchy made sense. Admins at the top, moderators handling day-to-day tasks, and team leaders bridging the gap. But with modern communities...
I think having a solid base of content before launching is important, but you don’t need hundreds of threads to get started. If a forum looks completely empty, it can be intimidating for new users to post. But at the same time, if it’s overloaded with pre-written content, it might feel...
Right now, my website isn’t open to the public yet, so promotion isn’t something my staff is actively involved in. But once it is open, I’d definitely expect my staff to help spread the word. After all, if they’re invested in the community and want to see it thrive, promoting it should feel...
A well-organized knowledge base can be a game-changer for any community. It helps members find answers quickly, reduces repetitive questions, and establishes your community as a go-to resource. But what makes a knowledge base truly useful rather than just a collection of random posts? Here are...
