What can we do to improve traffic to Get The HIV?

Exclusive trolling by A_IV? Salt and Vinegar Chip comments? Locked down threads and banned posters? Topless pics of the board owner?

Donna wants to know.

You can take it either way depending on who I'm referring to.

I'm not too worried about it anymore. If people come, they come. The regular people keep coming back and I'm happy with that.

Well thought of some pretty obvious ideas to increase the traffic at this place...

More instant feedback/calls from GTH members
Big presence at walkovers with banners
GTH's own WOW stickers
Assaults on the media
Paige, Toni, and Tammz compete in Monet Snatch

The best way to attract new people is with content. I know that is not a big revelation... but hear me out.... ONA & RNF have how many boards? the bag, .net (both shows), FBA, spread the iris... and the list keeps going. To split the fans yet again will be very hard. The best thing that the hiv has in its favor is the pest space. No other board has pest space, so why not use that to the advantage of GTH? Promote not as a board but as a replacement for myspace among the pests... and then have the board on the other end of the site...and people will navigate to the board in time... the first trick is to get them on the site... then hit em w/ the board. I know that is not a solution based around something that the posters of the board can do, but its @ least an idea.

(i thought that was going to be the point of the board originally. )

not a bad idea frunkis the pest space could be a huge thing

i also have something in the works that should get a few people talking about the site and maybe draw some traffic

Killing a hooker and carving the website name into her torso won't be as helpful as I initially suggested.

I also think that a campaign to get new listeners is the direction for gth.... i know that as far as boards go... most fans have some affiliation with one.... (i.e. i am an FBA guy for the most part) but if gth could gain more new listeners for the show somehow... it would gain credibility with the show and therefore get more traffic. so why not start to spread the virus via gth?


i feel like im just :Beating_A_Dead_Hors now.

Love the Pest Space Idea. it was definitely the reason i came here to begin with personally. make it the main page, and make the board inside the pest space. In fact, even the bbbboys may catch on to something like that, and mention it on air.

OK... not to be a dick, but Big A is on R&F almost everyday and O&A at least once a week... so why can't he mention GTH?

I did like that idea...

I think Toni said it was getting the board to work inside the pestspace that was the problem...

Let's get the site some recognition and spread our own Get the HIV virus! I’d like to organize a photo scavenger hunt. Let's make this as creative as possible and have some laughs while we're at it. The “huntable” items are listed below.

When you find an item from the list, you must take a picture. The picture must include you and the item with a sign of “Getthehiv.com”. The sign should contain the following:
• Getthehiv.com (this being the most visible on the sign)
• Opie & Anthony
• Ron & Fez
• xm202
If one of our fellow HIVers could create a sign that everyone can download, that would be great.

Basically, it is similar to “Attack on the Media” and “Sex for Sam”. Of course, nothing illegal must be done. Also, don’t make the signs permanent, don’t do anything to harm yourself or anyone else, and be sure to have permission of others you want a picture with.

Since members are from various cities, we will try to make the items easy to find in any area.

Again, be creative with your pictures (crazy positions, poses, action shots, etc). Along with the picture, provide a brief description of the encounter (funny, descriptive, interesting). Post the picture on the board unless you think it might violate terms of service (sexual content, etc). If so, send it to HillaryTheGreat, socialdviant, or mailman73 and we’ll post it on the board.

Hopefully, word will spread through the boards and the shows about the hunt. In the best case scenario, it will be mentioned on one of the shows. After all, that will be the ultimate goal.

Happy Hunting!

Scavenger Hunt List

1. A local police officer (higher the rank the better)
2. Local uniformed fireman
3. Ambulance driver, EMT
4. Delivery person (UPS, USPS, Fedex, etc)
5. Coffee for Café worker (Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, etc)
6. Local stripper (at work)
7. Someone wearing a red thong (thong showing)
8. Local team mascot (pro, college, high school)
9. Place a site sign in a highly visible area (bridge, street sign)
10. Homeless person or charity worker showing your donation
11. Priest, preacher, reverend, rabbi
12. Nun or Sunday school teacher in or in front of church
13. Cabbie holding sign by taxi
14. Someone walking a greyhound dog
15. Movie ticket clerk
16. Video store worker (Blockbuster)
17. Librarian (the sexier the better)
18. Train Conductor
19. Hold a sign in a busy area (mall, amusement park, train station)
20. Someone “WOWing” with the sign
21. Someone mooning with the sign
22. Midget aka small person (who saw this coming)
23. Bus driver (mass transit or school)
24. Farm animal (petting zoo, farm, ranch)
25. A sex act with the sign in the photo
