be authentic and helpful.

If you want to improve user engagement, create valuable, interactive content, encourage participation through polls or discussions, and reward active users. Regularly communicate updates, recognize contributions, and create a welcoming environment that invites continuous interaction.

To drive user engagement, I focus on creating a welcoming environment, fostering meaningful discussions, and offering exclusive content or rewards. Regularly hosting events, contests, and responding to member feedback keeps the community active, encouraging participation.

One example of engagement is hosting forums. A strong hosting forum is a hub for people wanting hosting. Well, that's what you want. You want your site to be a hub for some niche. In that case, it makes it good ground for monetization via ads (works for some niches), classified sites, upgrades, etc.

The monetization of hosting forums is via ads and classifieds usually. Tons of hosting companies post ads everyday.
