1. Forex Factory

One of the biggest forex portals in the industry, covering forums, news, broker guide (what you should be interested in!) and trade feed. Broker guide often runs very well in combination with a branding / advertising campaign done via the side and bottom banners.

Tip: submit your PR to get more exposure

2. Action Forex

This is one of the best sites to find quality traders through media buying. Some of the best activities would be the text ads and newsletters. You can also consider adding display ads to support the optimisation of the campaign. Press releases, news and articles would come in very helpful for inbound links and SEO boost.

3. Forex Traders

Forex Traders have got a network of sites, including forextraders.com, forexfraud.com and forexcharts.net. Advertising with them will give your forex broker exposure on all three sites at a relatively cheap rate, at the same time, bringing quality registrations. The only thing to keep in mind is that geo-targeting is not available, and if your broker does not accept US clients (or another country), it will not be possible to filter out the leads.

4. Baby Pips

Baby pips is one of the biggest forex sites for beginners and traders seeking education or advice from the others. It’s a great media publisher to attract novice traders or run educational campaigns. The most credible media buy would most probably be placed on the forum section of the site, where community will see your brand at all times.

5. Daily Forex

Daily Forex is a great site when your broker is seeking out traders from the Middle East, as you can run effective campaigns on English and Arabic site. The media kit is split in packages, and to get most exposure and ROI, best would be the Golden plan with the broker page, display ads, social posts and press releases for the maximum exposure.

6. FX Daily Info

The site is still rather small, but you can get exposure on multiple sites and domains, such as fxdailyinfo.com, blog.fxdailyinfo.com, forexdepositnews.com, English, Indonesian and Russian versions. The exposure also includes analyst guest posts, social media posts, press releases and multiple display ads throughout the sites.
