How You Get Members To Your Site?

Well i was wondering how you get members to your site, i have just started a new forum and i want to know how you people get members.

 

advertise everywhere u can , attract them by your banner or button or your site description ....

 

Offer something that is SLIGHTLY original, no sites seem capable of that nowadays.

 

Heres some:

Nice name and template that stands out from the rest
Advertise
Good resources that will make them think, this site rocks.

 

Well advertising is the most common way duh
Also be original like broken said. Its important.

Also offer good stuff that can't be find anywhere else.
And update alot so people keep looking at your site.

 

make threads in computing are advertising your site.
using html code

 

Try Popups, Bright Blary Popups!!!11!! :|

Meh.
It's hard for sites to be original now, the Gaming theme is done to death, the Tutorial theme, Resource Theme, Battling Theme...everything :|

 

Could you guys name some good places to advertise at?

 

I'm glad someone else besides me here knows that.

Starting a forum is not synonymous with starting a good, active forum.

What does your forum offer over the other forums? Don't say "Renders, brushes, and resources," because everyone has those now. Whats so original about your forum? That's what you have to ask yourself.

Not having an original forum just puts you in the class of hundreds of other sites that never really did anything new, or went anywhere. ("Hundreds" being an understatement).

Also, people say advertise. Lets make this clear, advertising sometimes pushes into spamming, which makes your board look bad, in my opinion.

Go for an original name, as well. Try not using the acronym GFX in the name, everyone does that.

Being unoriginal basically makes you dust in the wind, and that won't get you anywhere.

Hope that helps.

 

Yeah. Avoid the work GFX and also

- Designs
- Studios (Unless a Real Life Studio)
- Dreams/Massacre/Words that have f*** all to do with it

 

Well my board name is Frozen Creations is that a good name?

 

If you want a good site, properly good.
Then no, it's a terrible name.

 

What makes a name good? b/c game renders and chaos gfx has alot of people but those are okay names.

 

and the fact that its not even a frozen creations related domain, you're going to fail miserably.
The only members that'll go to that are adult friend finder bots.

 

1. Your skin is horrible.
2. You host is included in your domain name. Tsk Tsk.
3. Skin doesn't match the forum name in any way.
4. Your affiliate section doesn't look good.

Should I continue?
