    I need advice.

    I just started a forum. Its been my dream for the past 4 years or so but I never could manage to set it up! I finally managed however Im finding it close to impossible to get people to signup and post.

    I started a competition in the services section offering free links for top posters, yet I got only 2 people to signup (and I have 3 prizes on offer!!!!).

    I dont wish to pay to post....i would only use that as a last resort since Im a bit wary of the service.

    Anyone has any idea how I could get more people to join?

    you can submit your forum site to a lot of directories. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=65

    you can even try to post some ads and write helpful articles related to acne forum.

    try joining different forums as well, in that case , you can also learn a lot from it.

    goodluck to you and btw, i already joined your forum....cyah :)
