    Article writing, blog commenting and social media like facebook/twitter might be a good place for you to start. It's really easy to find people who would be interested in forum contests there.

    I would suggest advertise it on content directories like Ezines, or places like Hubpages and Squidoo! :) (I do offer squidoo lenses).

    There are plenty of ways to promote your new site.
    1.You can create a podcast using Podomatic or Blogtalkradio and then submit it to podcast directories
    2. Create a video about your site and submit it to Tube Mogul. This will distribute your video to multiple video sharing sites
    3, Hand out business cards. You can get some free ones with vista print.
    4. Write a press release and submit it to PRLog
    5. Socialbookmarking- There's a free automatic socialbookmarking tool called imautomator.

    To be honest the first place you want to start is by finding all the forums that run contest of some description join them and look around heck even post about the contest on your own forum your self and then email the other forum owner tell them what you have done to help promote their contest and ask that in future they might notify you.

    Once your communtiy starts to become a hub then they will come and find you, you just need to get the ball rolling and keep up the momentum of course if you are allowed have a link to your site in your signature on the other forums.

    Regards Ron

    Promoting a new site requires sustained hard work and it should involve both online and offline marketing.
    That should be coupled with frequently updating quality contents and continual link building.

    It depends on the site, for forums you can find other related forums, and see if they would be willing to do a link exchange

    Promote your RSS feed regularly.
    It's just part of the package when you promote your site, along with the other suggestions on this thread.

    Also, start posting on all the related forums you can find, with a link back to your site in your signature.

    Good luck!

    If you need it to receive articles on an ongoing basis, why don't you add it to some well-established blog network such as Unique Article Wizard or Article Ranks? That should really help you.

    For promotion, you may want to do SEO, social media marketing (such as Facebook and Twitter) and also do offline promotion such as leaflets and flyers.
