Both of these are very active forums, Sitepoint’s users are more skilled in development areas however the DigitalPoint users are more skilled in internet marketing strategies.  One can find a lot of useful information spread in these 2 forums, and most of the people gather such information and sell it as “New Guru Ebook”, infact you can find it yourself and ofcourse for free.

I love this forum, not only because you can get quick help instantly but there are more mature people on this forum. If you post any kind of high level programming question, you get your answer very quickly, I have mentioned about programming questions since I got my answers very quickly. The other forums are also very active and tons of useful information is to digg out. Current statistics are

The main reason I stick to SitePoint and prefer it over DigitalPoint is that its more friendly community and their staff rocks, there is no foolish child in their staff, that makes a big difference. A teenager can act like a child and does not always make the decisions a mature person can make. The MarketPlace at Sitepoint is also great for the serious sellers and buyers, ofcourse you have to pay a few bucks to get listed as seller, but that shows that you are serious about make a sale and not just scamming people.

Final Thought: Sitepoint community rocks !

This used to be a very friendly forum and had loads of useful information regarding affiliate marketing, seo, internet marketing strategies etc, and the good point was that many known musketeers were not only member of this forum but very active and that was a positive point. Currently it STILL has tons of good information but flooded with spam posts, what I believe and I have analysed that a year ago 10% of the posts were spam and 90% were with useful information, if you look at the current statistics and analyse quality of posts and threads, its 80% spam and 20% useful information, I believe that useful information comes from those golden days of DigitalPoint. Current statistics are

Now this looks like a busy forum, and it is, but most of the traffic is junk I would say, if you go to the buy-sell-trade section, you will quickly realise that there are only newbies selling junk to newbies. Lol, yea that’s right. I mean one would be selling 100 forum replies for $1 ? lol. If you browse this forum, you will be amazed to see how many banned members are there, why ? the reason is their childish staff, child banning another child, and banned child registering again with another username, and the loop goes on. But at the end, I would say it still has some good useful information from the old days, so you can digg out some gems but don’t waste your time by registering there.

Final Thought : Its overloaded with spam, but still has a lot of good information.
