All of the people posting things on the clubs forum can help bring in more visitors to the clubs website by adding key words to your questions and posts. By adding keywords on each post you will help the search engines find the club website. Here is a good example of a post that contains actual keywords: Raft Style Bonsai Development. In this example the keywords are Raft, Style, Bonsai and Development. This post was done by Andy. Search engines crawl all over websites and store the information they find on one. The stored information is then used in results to a request for information on a particular subject. The more keywords you users enter on your posts the more it is going to help re-establish the clubs website as a leading Bonsai resource/club website. More posts by the members will also help re-establish the clubs website to prominence. In the above example if someone was googling Bonsai Development then google might show Andys post at the top of the search engine results. All of this takes time to establish a website, almost a year. If your posting a question about a Pine tree, then enter the entire Scientific name of the tree: Pinus Ponderosa Bonsai. If your answering a question then answers can also help the search engines find the clubs website with your helpful Key Words. The more posts the better it will be for the website. Another thing you posters can do to help the clubs website is to list the clubs website on sites that you visit if they allow you to do so. This is called a backlink and search engines love to find backlinks to the clubs website. The more backlinks to the clubs website the higher position in the search engine results it will be. The ultimate goal should be to return the clubs website to the upper search engine results with the hope of adding new club members who now find the clubs website and might want to join. 😉

Here is an example of listing the clubs website on someone else's website: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bonsai/comments/g8ymfa/rocky_mountain_bonsai_society_new_website/
Reddit has thousands of Bonsai loving people on it including a bunch right here in Colorado. This example would be called a Backlink and search engines love them.
