    Make your site popular, then your forum will become popular. Also try paying people to post. Not a good method, but if you're desperate.

    i think you can create an incentive program. When people join and post 10 posting they should get FREE BANNER AD... place a rotation banner on your pages... that's a start! Good luck!!

    No one will show interest in registering & posting on an empty forum.So, first register yourself with different names and make the forum lively..take some help from your friends,etc and once you post some decent threads.. traffic will come naturally from search engines,etc...

    You can promote your new forum through buying signatures,avatar spots,hire good forum posters,announce referral contests-top posters contests-top thread starters contests etc.
