I thought we could have a thread where we gather together ideas on how to get traffic on your forum. This is very basic ideas. You can share your ideas too.

Here are some of my ideas;

* Launch email list
Gather large lists of emails. Create a good email telling us about your board.

* Search Engines
You need to get all your threads indexed, and a high ranking to increase new traffic. This will also put you in a strong position against competing forums.

* Twitter
You may send your RSS feed to Twitter.

* Facebook
Create a facebook fan page. Treat everyone like your friend.

* Yahoo Answers
Respond to questions at Yahoo Answers. This is actually an epic methode, tbh.

* Comment on blogs
Make comments on related blogs with a link back.

* Forum posting
While posting on other forums, make sure that you have your forum in your signature. DON'T be a fluff poster or a profile spammer.

* Advertise
Use Google ads, or even Facebook.

* Forum Directories
You may get some traffic from forum directories.

* Youtube
Set up a youtube channel.

* Offline promotion
See this thread

* Facebook Advertisement
You can pay for some advertisement on Facebook.
