    Send out a PR announcing your new directory.

    keep working on your backlinks and be patient. Try to rank well for your keywords and you will notice that people will automatically start registering and posting articles......so SEO is the key here.

    Offer more links in articles than your competition until you are well established.

    I will advice you resort to the traditional ways of internet marketing and don't try to reinvent the wheels. Drive traffic to your site and watch it grow.

    Below are a few ways to go about that.

    1. Optimize your site

    2. Article Marketing

    3. Blogging

    4. Forums

    5. PPC

    And so on.

    Do linkbuilding and eventually you will see that people will start posting on your site.

    If it is a article directory your talking about then i'd advise you to aggregate articles from different sources and then index them in search engines and promote. Once your traffic increases authors start coming in. You see no one would want to publish their articles where their are no users. Afetr you've done this try sending out a press release if you can afford it.
