I run one for mainstream. http://www.RealityTVFriends.com/forum . I have over 1200 friends on myspace and I'm using a commenter program to comment everyone's myspace profile. It's decent so far. My page has only been up a couple of days, too.Coming Soon! A NEW revolution in black adult social networking! -

Where do you advertise it?Comment

I just started out with adwords, which was a huge mistake because the niche has a very large PPC rate, and people were going to a near empty forum and not registering due to the lack of activitiy. live and learn
a friend just pointed me to forumtrends.com, so hopefully this will help outComment

Here's where I bought the commenter. You can also buy a mass friend adder, too.

If you want to take a long way of doing it, you can go to http://www.backpage.com (using firefox) and then open up every city in a different tab and put into the adult section about your site for free.Coming Soon! A NEW revolution in black adult social networking!Comment

I run a medium-sized (800k posts) forum. Its a fuckin bitch to get any new traffic to it. Getting listed on big-boards will get you some clicks, but you need 500k posts to get listed.
Anyone that has traffic sources for this, let me know, I'll pay well.

I did that without any help and without any effort, other than posting on my own board. Also, getting the pagerank in place in whatever time also depends on how close to a PR update you start the site and how fast Google spiders backlinks to you.Hiring ForumElves helped my Forum go from a PR0 to a PR3 on Google's Pagerank in less than 2 months!Whitehat is for chumps

A good forum should build itself with SE traffic and word of mouth.

Building a forum is an art.
Hiring paid posters is no short cut in my book. Part of the solution is to have a genre or topic you are interested in and persuing it.Assclown Bob Rice wants to BANG your credit card!"I am putting the bastards of this world on notice; greed and corruption will always be met with "a voice made of ink and rage."All the information above is my personal opinion.Comment

I used to run some boards. I drove traffic to them by going to other boards with a similar theme and posting (useful) topics and replies, and having a link to my board in my sig.
Like someone else said though, whatever you do make sure your board has some activity first. People will click away really quick if there are only a few posts there to start with.Comment

Yep. Blog comments help as well. As long as the "lead" material is ON POINT and actually ADDS to the conversation on the forum/blog you are promoting on, this should be fine. Also, build link swaps with sites that accept your comments/posts.Originally posted by SlamDesignsComment

Some of them are a waste of time.
I have a forum

Its been up for 7 months and not one member on there has purchased anything from my ref links.
I am closing it down as it has been a big waste of time.
People go to forums for free things.Comment
