    I'd suggest you get paid posters to start things off. After that you can stop using their service.

    Yes, contests are somewhat attractive. Anyway, you can hire forum posters. You can do that here at DP on the "Buy, Sell and Trade" Area. Just find the specific area. Just start on paid members to post in your forum. ;)

    most of the forums use repeated content everytime and everywhere, dont think its that easy for a person registering, and start posting.

    Offer some ebooks, try to find the interest of your forum members and offer them something related to it so that they post more. :)

    I have offered free unlimited file sharing with direct link download and also even offered to spam in my forum for free. Nobody wonts. I think it is beacuse of lack of marketing.

    Yes, in that case you need to advertise your forum at the right places and bring some traffic to it.

    BTW, its strange that people are not ready to spam for free! :eek:
