There are a lots of website owners out there who want their audience or visitors to engage more on their websites. Website engagement is a really broad term. This may also include visitor getting engaged with several different kinds of activities on a website. So, how do you do that?

It really depends on the kind of engagement you are looking for on your website. Usually, you will find those that run forums and blogs are looking for forum posts and blog comment engagement which is understandable.

I would say the best way to go about getting engagement for those kinds of sites is to ensure you are the owner of the site is consistent with the new content you post so that members and visitors always have something new to read and engage with.
 
There's a personal engagement and there's public engagement. Personal engagement is started off when a new member registered. You're expected to send them a DM, it can be automatically sent or manually. The point is that you need to take that first step. Explain some things about the forum and see them make themselves comfortable.

The public engagement is enable or encouraged by the kind of contents that are already on your forum where they can participate in discussions.

Engagement is essential for forums or websites to create a sense of community and encourage active participation from visitors.

Here are a few tips:
🌟Encourage users to ask questions and share their expertise in the discussion forum section.
🌟Incorporate surveys, quizzes, or live chat to keep them engaged.
🌟Send email newsletters regularly with updates, highlights, and featured discussions to keep visitors informed and engaged.

The owner of the forum or blog should always lead by example in posting most of the time on the site. Members want to see content that they will comment on, and when you are inactive as an owner and have less staff, it is going to make the forum or blog look dull and inactive too.

Well, I don't really think that it's necessary for the forum owner to be posting every day in the forum. The owner can be a laid back administrator but his presence will always be felt in the community. He can add contents to the forum once in a while, it doesn't have to be every day.
 
Pay a good attention to how often high quality contents are posted on your forum. Contents drive more than 90% of the members engagement in any forum. If there isn't enough contents for your members to engage in discussion, they will not visit for long.

I completely agree with you in this assessment. This is because it's the consumption and engagement in contents that drives most people to forums away from using different social media platforms out there. When they get to forums and not find those contents, they will not be willing to stay back.
 
If I had my own website then I would use the EasyHits4u website (House exchange site) and would also create tasks on micro-job sites By title: visit my site/blog scroll the page as a real visitor and set payment for the task. Websites for example: Rapidworkers, Hiretalents, Jumaworkers.

Personally, I find the use of newsletters updates very useful. I actually joined back on Bizdustry years ago after getting a newsletter from the forum when I haven't been online in over 1 year or more. It was the newsletter that kick started my new engagement in the forum's activities.
 
Well written and high quality content drives visitor engagement. Therefore, if you want your visitors to engage on your site, you need to publish high quality and well written content. Adding polls, questions and quizzes also drive engagement on your site.

Contents is king in forums. If you don't have many high quality engaging contents in your forum, traffic will dry up quickly in your forum. If you don't have any traffic coming to your forum because of less forum activities, the blame is on you.
