    To get ranked, I'd say work on getting people posting. Forum users can provide tons of natural links, especially from twitter, other forums, social networking sites, their blogs, etc.

    You could do some blog commenting with links to relevant discussions on your forum, but again that requires some discussion to be going on.

    hi...

    Forums users are not needed to worry as they will get indexed soon...they already get natural links...

    to ger tanked, you will need to promote your forum. get some activity going. get as many signups as possible from real members and keep them on the forum so that they keep posting. all the new posts will add new content to your forum which will help. beside that, you need to do a lot of link building with your targetted keyword

    Build links slowly.....get people onto the forums and talking....also submit a press release on the launch of your site.

    Finally target keywords that do not have a ton of competition.

    If genuine members start posting regurarly, it will start growing in content and automatically appearing in SER for a variety of keywords.

    Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important -- and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more - that's additional traffic that you get for free.

    Try to find some good programs that will spread your link...

    PRStorm for example.

    To get ranked, try to add more high quality content and encourage and reward participation by forum members. Submit a sitemap to google which consists of all the threads in the forum.
