    I guess traffic, $500 worth of targeted traffic would be worth it

    It depends on what your goals are.

    Sounds like you want to buy traffic rather than gain natural traffic through SEO. If that's the case your best bet is most likely Adwords.

    I couldn't agree more about Adwords.

    But to be more specific, EFFECTIVE adwords

    quality of adwords traffic is for sure the best. But it's not the cheapest..

    Forums are hard to kick start and I don't know how well Adwords would work. If it were me I would target some long tail keywords related to my forum. It will take longer but in the long run a much better ROI in my opinion.
