    I'm thinking to advertise forum, is this good idea?

    Should I spend all $250 to google adwords? Can anyone suggest me best ways for quality traffic?

    To promote a forum, you should probably buy advertising on other forums.

    The problem is that two popular they charge like $450 per week for banner ad near other million ads and dont allow to promote other forums same type related. Also advertising like that wont guarantee me even 1 click. Some even $319/day - $2199/week :(

    man what kind of market are you trying to target,

    maby look at some cheap methods to get things moving -

    * directory submission.
    * put a few videos up on youtube relating to your site! with links in the title and description.
    * join forums similar to yours and make a few general posts then start a thread about your site.
    * maby look at promoting to your demographic via myspace aswell.
    * maby look at getting some high quality paid posters to boost up your post count.
    * $250 is not much but if you work it right you can expand it :D

    $250 is enough, just see what was possible with 15kchallenge.com/blog, although i do think advertising a forum will be a bit harder.

    Yahoo Search marketing have an offer on right now where you can get a $100 free credit if you deposit $5 to your account, that will help you on your way a bit. Heres the link here

    I think this is the best idea.
    On the another way AdWords is the idea which don't need much time...
