I think word of mouth is best, you get the most people by either telling them about it, or having someone else tell them about it. |

it depends on the product your provivding as well. for example your board may be on a topic that only certain people take a interest in . so no matter how much advertising you do you will not get a large serge of members flocking to your board i have a football forum , now if you like footie or not you cant deny that it is a very popular subject enjoyed buy millions every weekend ! So when im advertising i would say on a subject of football im more likly to get more members joining my forum ! |

Kinda untargeted+Targeted advertising (Reason is that it could get more people into the game) Word of mouth mostly. Being friendly. Give good rules, help out. Have great friendly members + Mods. Hope this helped
