    I have an Indian forum and I was wondering how could I get members to it, I can't pay either, any advice to which websites I should use.

    Post some threads yourself with links on it, and then click the link yourself to visit the link. The link owner will find where is the visit comes from, and if the visit is useful to his website, the owner will come and register on your websites.

    I got some daily visits from an unknown forum named mysmartscripts, and some days later, I checked the forum and registered a username, posted some topics there.

    Spamming?
    As you don't have any budget,it's hard IMO.

    Maybe paid posting for a while will help to kick it off. What budget do you have btw??
    A competition like a free airticket or something like that might help too
