Forum Traffic - Forum Addicts

XRated
I have recently put up a forum based on free shells and resources , i know there is so many people interested in shells and ways of getting them free and ofcourse there is people interested in resources and i think my forum is quite unique as i have not found many shell resources on the web if any. It's only been up for about 2-3 day's and ive found my forum on google a few times so that's look's great but i can't get people to register lol they come and they do look around but they don't register.. anyone have any suggestions on getting people to register?

(Sorry if this is the wrong forum)

Do they have something to register for, i mean you can go to a forum and download stuff. But if you don't have to register first, the you are just acting like a 'mirror' server.

Get some discussions happening, competitions, friends to come sign up and make somethings look good. If you have an empty forum, t doesn't look to inviting.

Can't you also make them register before reading the forums w/ the info they are looking for? If they can read the kind of info they are looking for w/o registering, then why bother? If you give them a reason to register(give them generic knowledge and an idea of what's inside the users forum) in an open area, they'll feel a need to register to get the rest of the information they are looking for.

    the way they arange their sections CONSTANTLY. Like I'll see the same category redivided into
    different sections like 5-6 times in 4 months. Here's your problem. Customers subliminally seek

    still a good thing when you have an idea that might gain momentum because of it's design in the
    first place. Kind of like trap17 asking users to post in exchange for something they value. This is
    a good arrangement because there is a level of respect among users and the quality is....

    galactic gold, traffic battle, chain reaction traffic, etc.) with caution (approach with yellow
    light). I've tried surfing through those, it was BORING! Most sites through those are money

  16. Build Traffic By Polls/surveys.

    think while designing the website. Surveys are nice way to increase the traffic to your site. For
    people to want to fill out the survey and see the results, the survey topic must be interesting. To
    encourage input, consider having the survey results available to participants only. Your survey
    could be ona topic concerning current events or something pertaining to your industry. The more
    controversial or debatable the topic of the survey,the more people will visit to cont....
