Virtual Assistant Forums

October 23, 2007

Forums can be a great way to meet new people, talk shop about your business and collaborate on issues you may be having. Forums also allows you to have a network of individuals who are in a similar place as you - whether it’s your work or your personal life.

Finding forums, for me, has always been a challenge. It’s easy to Google them and find where they exist but it’s hard to find the right fit. Some forums are not frequently visited and therefore posting becomes a conversation with yourself and other forums are too off-topic.

Another thing that I find happens is that you register for the forum (can’t post otherwise) but you never hear anything back. This happened to me with the Virtual Assistance Chamber of Commerce (http://www.virtualassistantnetworking.com/). I registered to be a member of their forum after I received a flurry of traffic from some linkbacks within their forum but I was never accepted. Now I’m just curious as to why I received the free link love!

I have been lucky enough to stumble upon one forum - http://www.virtualassistantforums.com. It seems really good so far and the people are really friendly and helpful.

So, I ask my fellow VAs - where do you frequent? Which forums have you found to be particularly helpful? Are there any that you joined that weren’t helpful?

    Erin:

    I too am a member of virtualassistantforums.com. It is frequented by many VA’s and has a shlew (is that a word?) of information.

    I keep a spreadsheet of different forums so I can keep track of those that I am a member of. Some are good and some not so good.

    What do you know about guru.com and elance.com? I get 3-4 emails daily on projects that fit my profile (from guru), but I’m not sure how many I’m competing with. Whether I get the job or not, I would still have to pay to submit a proposal. I haven’t gone that far yet.
