    OK, weill i've started a new forum, and i'm looking for people to help out, i already have one, but more would be great, the forum is a development forum www.DEVForum.co.uk i've started creating some forums, such as PHP and HTML as i don't want to create all the forums just yet as i wont fill them.

    I already have www.EntrepreneurForum.co.uk - which has come along quite well, and i will place ad's on there to increase the traffic to devforum.co.uk

    what you guys think, will it succeed, or flop....

    Well try to hired some paid poster which help you to boost your site. Better to hired a firm whom you forced to make posts in some fixed time.

    I agree with others who've suggested getting some paid posters. It will help populate your forum quickly and get the ball rolling.

    Good luck with your new forum.

    You can set you own price for posts... If you hop over to the Content Creation forum, you'll notice many threads looking to hire paid posters. You could easily start your own thread. Just a thought.
