    SEO is the best for any sites because it is free.

    If you want some fast and good traffic that converts then go for Adwords.

    To get traffic or member, search engine will be the best source.
    If you willing to pay, then adwords will be another good choice

    Just a few outlines that you can follow:

    1. Having a contest (Top poster, top referrer, top...)
    2. Adsense sharing (allow your members to earn too)
    3. Hire ghost members (Paid forum posters from http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=102)
    4. Link building on higher PR sites and pages.

    You can use paid ads or PPC for example then start implementing SEO rules for long term benefits.
