Profile Visibility: How to Get it on BiggerPockets?

[Joshua Dorkin]

I was wondering to myself which members got the most traffic to their profiles, as my theory is that those people who are most active on the site are those who do get the most visibility to their profiles and elsewhere on site.

So . . . I checked our analytics and noted that all but one of the top 50 most visited profiles over the past year on the site were owned by people who were amongst the most active on the site over that same period. The one outlier happened to be a real estate guru whose profile happened to do well on the search engines for their name.

In terms of activity, these members were either highly active on the forums, were contributors to the BiggerPockets Blog, or were active bloggers on our blog network.

None of these people were the marketer types - those members who just come and post ads or other annoying types.

Of course, these people also got a tremendous amount of visibility on those areas that they participate . . . profile traffic was the only metric that I was looking at.

So . . . if you're looking to increase your visibility, the absolute best way to do so is to get out there and participate.
