So finally, and officially, its a goodbye to the ShoutMeLoud forum!Īfter using One plus 3T for over a year and a half, I finally decided to change my phone. I may reconsider starting the forum again in 2019, but for now, it’s time for me to put all my focus on the blog and other web properties. I realized that a better idea would be to have an invite-only forum, which will reduce the headache of spam and foster more meaningful conversations. Self-promotional and spammed by many to build links.Poor English and grammar were making the whole brand look unprofessional.
Here are a few reasons that made me wield the axe: Many of our regular readers reached out to me and asked about the reason for the ShoutMeLoud forum removal. I monitored the effect of traffic drop on due to forum deindexation for one week, and it turned out to be only 3-4%, which is much lesser than I anticipated. It was a mere coincidence that happened out of nowhere, but I was thankful as I took it as a signal to let go of forum for now. I’m not a 100% sure what triggered the complete deindexing of the forum from the search engine, but it did happen, on its own. One fine day, mid of August, our forum was entirely deindexed from Google!īefore this sudden deindexing of the forum, I had manually deleted about 700+ forum posts and put a URL removal request from the search engine. What are the chances of a forum getting deindexed all of a sudden?
